Senator John Fetterman (D-Pa.) let frustration get the best of him after Democrat losses in Pennsylvania, lashing out profanely at his home state’s voters.
To say that it wasn’t a good election in the Keystone State for Democrats would be a monumental understatement with President-elect Donald J. Trump thumping Kamala Harris whose appeasing of her party’s rabidly antisemitic base by snubbing Jewish Gov. Josh Shapiro came back to bite her.
Harris’ loss was bad enough but the hulking galoot was particularly perturbed when his good friend and fellow Democrat Bob Casey narrowly went down to defeat in the Senate race with Fetterman blaming “dipsh*t” Pennsylvanians who voted for the Green Party.
The Associated Press announced that Republican Dave McCormick was the winner, but Casey has refused to concede. Fetterman is sniping at the Greens over the drawn-out ballot-counting.
Pennsylvania is going to count every last vote.
That’s not controversial—that’s the law.
Also, Green dipshits’ votes helping elect the GOP. pic.twitter.com/KvdROvlkEq

“Pennsylvania is going to count every last vote,” he wrote on X. “That’s not controversial—that’s the law. Also, Green dipshits’ votes helping elect the GOP.”
Democrats have a history of blaming the Green Party for their electoral failures. In 2000 it was Ralph Nader who was accused of siphoning off votes from Al Gore and in 2016, Jill Stein was savaged by Hillary Clinton supporters after her loss to Trump.
Venting is one thing, but insulting voters isn’t exactly an argument that could convince them to come over to your side, and Fetterman was scorched by X users.
“Calling Green voters ‘dipsh*ts’ is not a great way to win them over,” Tesla/SpaceX CEO and X owner Elon Musk wrote, stating the obvious.

Republican organizer Scott Presler, whose hard work was instrumental in putting Pennsylvania in the win column for Trump, also jabbed Fetterman.
I think Green Party voters are going to remember you calling them names when you’re running for re-election.
Probably not the smartest choice.
We’ll be sure to remind them.

“I think Green Party voters are going to remember you calling them names when you’re running for re-election. Probably not the smartest choice. We’ll be sure to remind them,” he wrote, and for good measure trolled Fetterman with one of the state’s top newspapers calling the race for McCormick.

Other reactions to the slobbish senator’s seeming to believe that it’s a good political strategy to trash his own constituents:
What a fucking idiot.
Instead of understanding why Dems are losing, they call the people whose support then want “dipshits”.
Hey dumbass, maybe don’t adopt the rhetoric of the very same Tim Walz dipshit who just caused your demonic party to suffer the most devastating…

Smugly calling Green party voters “dipshits.” I see Democrats have learned absolutely nothing from the election. Hope you elitist fucks keep losing.

Hello again, John.
Calling 64,000 people dipshits is exactly why your party lost.
Just like the 75 million and counting fascists and Nazis in this country.
The Democratic Party’s platform is to act like 13 year olds in Xbox Live Chats. https://t.co/YlRJ4Ho1tv

You’re the next one to lose in Pennsylvania, get ready.
And try ditching the hoodies and dressing like an adult in the senate. You embarrass yourself, your state, and the institution.

and you just won them over right there you troglodyte.

Racists, Nazis, misogynists and now dipsh*ts, the Democratic Party’s not exactly winning hearts and minds.
