Pennsylvania Democrats are considering candidates to challenge John Fetterman in 2028, with Rep. Chris Deluzio emerging as a possible consensus choice. Their frustration intensified after Fetterman addressed a Republican midterm convention, while he says he remains a lifelong Democrat.
Outlets agree Fetterman appeared by video at a Republican midterm convention and praised Republican Sen. Dave McCormick.
Center outlets pair Fetterman’s statement that he remains a Democrat with party-switch speculation and criticism of his cross-party appearance. Right-leaning outlets present the appearance as a political gain for Republicans and a jab at Democrats.
