John Fetterman has a bone to pick with his fellow Democrats.
The “Squad” is in his crosshairs.
And John Fetterman humiliated Rashida Tlaib with the worst insult you can imagine.
John Fetterman was livid with his fellow Democrats.
Some – like Minnesota Congressman Dean Phillips – openly warn that Joe Biden is too old to run for re-election and that the party needs to pick a new candidate.
Others, like Michigan Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib, are organizing Democrats in Michigan to sit out the election in protest of Joe Biden not fully supporting the terrorist group Hamas’ call for a ceasefire of Israeli military operations.
y8In an appearance on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe,” Fetterman ripped these Democrats as no better than MAGA hat-wearing Trump enthusiasts.
“I don’t understand why,” Fetterman stated. “I don’t know what’s in it for you to do that, whether you’re just chasing clout or want to make it into the news or anything like that. But if you’re not willing to just support the president and say these kinds of things, you might as well just get your MAGA hat because you now are helping Trump.”
Rashida Tlaib and her crew are the more immediate threat to Biden.
Tlaib cut an endorsement video for the group Listen to Michigan encouraging Democrats to vote “uncommitted” in the February 27 primary to try and embarrass Biden.
“If you want us to be louder, then come here and vote uncommitted,” Tlaib urged Democrats. “Enough is enough. We don’t want a country that supports wars and bombs and destruction. We want to support life. We want to support life. We want to stand up for every single life killed in Gaza.”

These are no idle threats.
The Real Clear Politics polling average shows Trump leading Biden by 4.6 points in Michigan.
Tlaib previously accused Joe Biden of supporting genocide in Gaza and warned that Democrats won’t forget in November.
This message broke through with the party base, which is increasingly pro-Hamas.
Several Michigan voters told MSNBC that not only are they willing to protest Joe Biden in the primary, but that they are willing to sit out the general election in the hopes Biden loses as punishment for not coming to the side of Hamas.
“Why is our democracy more important than thousands of men, women, and children being killed?” University of Michigan graduate student Annie Wisner asked in an interview with MSNBC’s Yasmin Vossoughian.
Defending democracy was the rallying cry for the Democrat Party post-January 6.
False claims that Joe Biden – who wants to jail Donald Trump and censor his supporters online – is the protector of democracy is the only message Joe Biden’s campaigning on this fall.
For Democrats in Michigan to brush off Biden’s claim that democracy is at stake shows that there are unrepairable fissures in the Democrat Party coalition over support for Hamas.
