U.S. Sen. John Fetterman continues to ruffle the feathers of his own Democrat Party as it lurches further and further left.

In a shocking move, the Pennsylvania Dem made a video appearance at the Republican midterm convention in Dallas on Wednesday.

“We will work with President Trump to defend the steel way of life,” Fetterman says in the short but stunning clip.

“I will ALWAYS stand for America, reject the extremes, socialism, and anti-American ways of life.”

Somewhat ironically, Pennsylvania Dem Rep. Chris Deluzio was blasting Fetterman on Wednesday night, saying he’s “nowhere to be found.”

“My constituents and folks all over Pennsylvania are pretty frustrated with John Fetterman,” Deluzio told Jake Tapper on CNN’s “The Lead.”

“They’re pretty disappointed,” Deluzio continued. “I’ve been all over not just my district of Pennsylvania, trying to help us flip the most competitive congressional races. And John Fetterman is nowhere to be found. And frankly, folks don’t want him on the trail. He’s spending his time, frankly, going on right-wing media to bash the Democrats.”

Deluzio’s criticism comes after an alleged media/Dem Party attack that was launched against Fetterman last week.

This is a coordinated political attack by the progressive wing of the Democrat party. Two of the most vocal figures associated with this effort are Chris Deluzio and Conor Lamb. https://t.co/GlSZu6Es13

Fetterman may have been keeping a low profile following the attacks, but the good news is, we found him — at the Republican convention!

X users were happy to hear Fetterman’s message, but many are skeptical of his fence-riding:

While I don’t agree with EVERYTHING he does……He is the Only ONE I think I have heard of with any common sense!!!

If only he would vote like he talks. It’s so weird because he says all the right things. If we can get him to come over to our side, maybe he would change the way he votes.

Fetterman just walked into the RNC and said what more Democrats are afraid to admit: America First, support American steel, reject socialism. The party is losing its own people.

Standing at a Republican convention thanking Trump while keeping the D on your reelection paperwork is a whole strategy

Half these replies want him to switch, half want him to vote like it. Neither happens til the next floor vote
