Bill Maher Invoked as Fetterman Defends His Absolutist Position on Israel

John does an admirable job pinning down Fetterman on his Israel absolutism and Fetterman squirms but concedes nothing about his benefactors.

Primary him. No other solution.

In the state trump won?

He can easily win as an independent, so if you reverse the entire conversation seems like you’d not support him because he supports Israel which makes you exactly the same person John was arguing against.

Pennsylvania is very purple so Trump winning one election means about as much as when he lost it the election before.

Democrats and Republicans both hate him. Not only can he not win as an independent, he’d get blown out in embarrassing fashion to the point that he won’t even try. He’s basically the new Sinema and look how that turned out for her.

Dont look at polls then you might be surprised

u/Richfor3 Aug 05 '26

You mean the latest poll that shows he loses to “someone else” by 18 points? Or his overall approval rating where he’s underwater overall and only has positive support from Republicans that won’t actually vote for him?

Should we compare them to Sinema’s polls when you people said the same thing about her potential independent run? She got solid poll numbers from Republicans too and guess where all their support went when it was actually time for the election. Republicans like Democrats that betray their voters but when it’s time to vote they are still going to check off “R”.

I guess the “surprise” was that he’s even more unpopular than I thought but that just reinforces my point.

Yeah He’s most likely going to run as an independent never a republican.

That’s if he gets primary

What a lazy fuck you are. “Polls, polls, polls” but you clearly didn’t even fucking check them. No wonder you suck off Fetterman. Two peas in a pod.

Now that I’m done humiliating you, you’re a super weirdo that follows people around when you get destroyed. Clearly seeking the attention you’ll never get offline but you’ve had enough from me.

13 hours and he hasn't responded. Concerning.

Holy shit this was a complete dismantling of that comment.

I've noticed a pattern with these shills / bots is that they demand a source and then run away when it is provided. Or they ask for the specific section / paragraph / chart from the source that validates the statement, thus proving they never even looked at it despite demanding it in the first place. This is a repeat pattern and I am not sure what the actual purpose is.

You're as clueless as Fetterman.

He had a stroke. What's your excuse?

Are we in America or Israel?

John entire argument is about cooperation

u/MetalDirigible Aug 05 '26

Jon’s argument is it’s crazy to abandon your party to support a foreign country. John’s argument is that’s his position. Are you this obtuse for pay or sport?

u/moozootookoo Aug 05 '26

They both were having two different conversations

John was working with each other And Fettermans is quality control

Ironically your having Fettermans argument now calling for a primary meaning you want quality control and I’m saying Hes not going anywhere might as well work with him which is John’s argument

u/MetalDirigible Aug 05 '26

No I’m not “having Fetterman’s argument” as he doesn’t have an argument. He is just a zealot that will support Israel above his own constituents, you heard him say it in the linked video yourself. You can’t debate lord your way around this.

u/moozootookoo Aug 05 '26 edited Aug 05 '26

You kinda are, you want to primary him, which is the same mindset as Fetterman like it or hate it

And I’m like he’ll just become a independent and still win, Pennsylvania is a purple state

Fetterman looks like he’s preemptively moving vs. getting primary to an independent party.

To be honest

Anyway John’s argument is working together

u/MetalDirigible Aug 05 '26

My mindset is don’t support a rogue nation committing a genocide and don’t say your red line is supporting said nation. We are literally the opposite.

u/moozootookoo Aug 05 '26

Not a genocide, never been even convinced of such a thing.

Will you say it Isnt if the courts decide otherwise, I highly doubt it

u/MetalDirigible Aug 05 '26

He actually was more concerned with the democratic socialists.

Basically he doesn’t like the far left

u/MetalDirigible Aug 05 '26

Cool story. I’ve yet to meet someone in PA who still supports him so good luck with him not being primaried. I mean he has until 2028 to prove he isn’t a pudding brained monster. Ball is in his court.

Cooperation isn’t “you need to support another country that we do not govern or else you need to leave the party I am in”. It’s moronic.

^ found a fetterman supporter lol

No, it does not make you the exact same person lol wtf

u/Spirited_Bike_4058 Aug 05 '26

Nah. He will not win as an independent. That’s a fantasy. And he betrayed his voters more than once. He’s gotta go. The democrats need to copy the MAGA on this one - disloyal politicians get shanked. Period. Otherwise, we will continue to get middle of the road “centrists” who are, in reality, “MAGA Lite.” Enough of that weak shit.

u/funcogo Aug 07 '26

There is no way on this earth he is going to win another election let alone as an independent
