Democratic Senator John Fetterman During an appearance on “The View” Thursday, critics of his party doubled down on his comments on his 2024 election losses in Pennsylvania, particularly among men.
“The View” co-hosts pressed Fetterman on her previous comments in which she bluntly told her fellow Democrats that they lost male voters to President-elect Donald Trump because they were “humiliating” and “insulting.” were “among”.
“It forces men to make a choice, can I really be a Democrat?” he said. “The tone in these kinds of situations, it’s undeniable. I’ve seen that over the last eight years … and here we are now. Be it ‘Bruce’ or ‘Manosphere’ And I mean obviously those are negative kinds of terms.”

“If you talk to them, or you make them part of the problem, or if it’s all yours and your fault, then of course they’re going to find an alternative,” he added. “And that’s what they’ve done.”
Fetterman said it was “undeniable” that Democrats had lost ground with men.
“I’m not sure we’re going to be able to bring it back without some kind of long-term strategy to reconnect them, because it’s undeniable that there’s been severe erosion,” he said.

“In 2016, I was doing an event with steel workers, on the street where I live, and I was seeing a different kind of energy with Trump. It was clear at that time that people were voting for Trump. The Democrats’ response was, ‘Aren’t they smart enough to realize they’re voting against their own interests?’ And it’s insulting, and … it’s not reprehensible and if anything it reinforces that kind of stereotype.
“Telling them, ‘I know better than you,’ is not helpful,” he added.

He He also warned his party. That they need to stop clutching their pearls over Trump’s victory, he added, adding that Democrats’ anger “must be candy for Trump.”
“We’re not even Thanksgiving, and the Democrats can’t stop losing their minds every 15 minutes. We really need to pace ourselves, or, you know, FFS. [for f—‘s sake]Just get a grip,” he said.
