58. Fetterman is quintessential western Pennsylvania

If you asked this same question to just about any W Pa native, you'd get the same answer. Walking contradictions abound here and "hot takes" (gut reactions) rather than critical thinking are becoming endemic. I doubt Fetterman could actually explain why he thinks what he said. I could be wrong, but he doesn't strike me as a particularly deep thinker despite also striking me as an introvert, who, imho, tend to be introspective and thoughtful.

Fetterman is what he is. As long as he votes with Dems, he can say what he wants.
