16. Completely wrong.

People have been complaining about Fetterman here ever since he was elected (search the archives - there's tons of posts) long before Trump was elected. And he hasn't done a 180 on things. He has actually been consistent. There's certain issues he has voted on every time how he said he would when campaigning - he will never vote "against Israel" and he will never vote for a shutdown (and there are others).

Like most people here, I strongly disagree with his position on both those issues. However, he has yet to make a vote that was a deciding vote against Democratic priorities - Something that can't be said about Manchin or Sinema.
