Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) recently shut down former President Donald Trump’s baseless claims that Pennsylvania is cheating in the presidential election. Speaking on CNN’s State Of The Union, Fetterman dismissed Trump’s allegations, stating, “Oh, it’s the same sh*t that he tried in ’20 and it didn’t go anywhere.”
When pressed by Dana Bash about his concerns regarding Trump’s claims, Fetterman confidently responded, “I’m not worried about it. It’s the same thing that he tried in 2020. We had a secure election. There was voter fraud in Pennsylvania, and it was a handful of Republicans who had their dead moms vote for Trump… It’s not going to be any more effective than it was in 2020.”
Fetterman’s remarks highlight the fact that Trump’s attempts to undermine trust in Pennsylvania’s elections are simply a desperate ploy to discredit the results because he is losing the state. With the knowledge that he is on the losing end, Trump has resorted to spreading falsehoods and misinformation about the election process.
It is worth noting that Pennsylvania has already weathered similar attacks on its electoral integrity in the past. The attorney general who successfully defended the state against Trump’s legal challenges in 2020 is now the governor. Therefore, Trump’s tactics are unlikely to gain traction in Pennsylvania this time around.
In conclusion, Fetterman’s bold response to Trump’s unfounded claims serves as a reminder that the democratic process in Pennsylvania remains strong and resilient. Trump’s attempts to sow doubt and confusion are nothing more than a last-ditch effort to salvage a losing campaign. Pennsylvania voters can rest assured that their voices will be heard and their votes will be counted accurately.
