Democrat Civil War Watch: Fetterman Warns Kamala About Picking Josh Shapiro

[excalibur]

Wow!

From the same state, too.

One can only imagine the internecine war in Democrat circles.

​

In a rather stunning development in the Kamala Harris veepstakes, Sen. John Fetterman (D-Pa.) is reportedly concerned about Harris selecting his state's governor, Josh Shapiro, as her running mate. According to Politico, three individuals familiar with the discussions have revealed that Fetterman's advisers have privately communicated these concerns to Harris' team.​

​

While many on the left don't like Shapiro because he's Jewish and supports Israel, Fetterman, a strong advocate for Israel, has other reasons for urging Harris not to pick him. "Fetterman’s advisers suggested to Harris’ team that the senator believes that Shapiro is excessively focused on his own personal ambitions," the outlet reports. "His reservations about Shapiro reflect a long-running rivalry between the two ambitious Democrats, who have risen on parallel tracks in a politically crucial state."​

​

For Fetterman’s representatives to reveal his concerns to the party’s new standard-bearer’s team underscores the intense scrutiny being applied to possible running mates — and the high stakes of a decision that has the potential to shape the Democratic Party for years to come. Shapiro has risen to the top of the shortlist of Harris’ possible vice presidential picks. Harris is interviewing several contenders this weekend and is scheduled to hold a rally with her running mate on Tuesday in Philadelphia.

​

Fetterman’s representatives explained to Harris’ aides that one of the key disagreements the men had was while they served together on Pennsylvania’s Board of Pardons, according to the three people, who were granted anonymity to describe internal conversations.

​

Fetterman sought to revitalize the institution and provide second chances to some convicts. Shapiro often took a less lenient position, arguing that he believed in criminal justice reform but that the commutations process was not the place for “structural” changes. Fetterman and Shapiro clashed in particular over the fate of Lee and Dennis Horton, brothers who had been convicted in a fatal shooting and robbery in 1993 but maintained their innocence for decades.

Harris will choose Kelly.

Speculation swirls as top Harris V.P. contender posts and deletes statement

A top contender to be Kamala Harris' pick for her running mate appeared to say he was no longer in contention on Sunday before quickly deleting and replacing the statement that potentially indicates otherwise. U.S. Sen. Mark Kelly (D-AZ), who is thought to be one of the top Democratic options...

Somebody should have warned democrats about picking Fetterman. The liberal media tries to cover it up but it looks like chaos in the democrat party.

 

[The Duke]

Fetterman's actually pretty decent, IMO.

Whelp. On this one, I have to agree with Butters...erm...Fetterman...

Kelly is the right pick. Like the dude from MN (he stuck "weird" to the alt-right ), but he's too old.

Tucson-based World View, cofounded by now-U.S. Sen. Mark Kelly in 2012, received venture capital from Tencent — among the largest tech companies in China — both in 2013 and 2016.

• Tencent, like most Chinese tech giants, has close ties to the Chinese Communist Party.

Irrelevant.
The Chinese can be traced to just about every politician (wannabe) there is.

Shapiro has baggage. Kelly doesn't have that kind of baggage.

Not sure why the MAGA cult is so excited about interparty discussion that doesn't involve your party. Nosey people often try to make something big out of some innocuous event that doesn't concern them anyway. Your time would be better spent figuring out how trump is gonna get past the hilarious choice of Vance for VP.
