I'm 100% certain he's going to publicly go from (D) to (R) at some point in his career

Possibly. PA is more of a D state on the state level, but barely.

It would be interesting if someone like Summer Lee could unseat him. I hesitate to call for her to abandon her current House seat, because the pool of "not demonic" politicians is super low. But at the same time I would like to see the best ones we have elevated as far as we can. And unseating a liar and a genocidal monster like Fetterman is incredibly important. But the replacement cannot just be another liberal but perhaps with better "aesthetics." The days of "aesthetics" voting (Biden v Trump for example) are over for me and I think a growing number of people. I actually hate people like Obama and Biden, who pretend to be civil and whatever else, more than open "spit in your face" assholes like Trump or, I dunno, Tom Cotton. Obviously the latter two are gigantic pieces of shit rhetorically, but in the end, all of their actions are effectively equivalent. Talib, Omar, Summer Lee, and some few others are the only ones who present an actual measurable, in their actions, difference. Not enough, etc. etc. yeah they're politicians in the United States. They clear the bar on being human though. Fetterman does not.
