Sen. Fetterman To Become First Democrat To Meet With Trump

Pennsylvania Democrat Sen. John Fetterman is driving his own party insane as he has not had the kneejerk response of being against President-elect Donald Trump that many Democrats have had.

To that end he confirmed to reporters on Friday that he will be heading to Florida to meet with the president-elect at his Mar-a-Lago home, CBS News reported.

“That is the plan. Yes, we are going to have a conversation,” the senator said of their planned meeting.

Fetterman will be the first elected Democrat senator to have a formal meeting with Trump since his election in November.

“I think that one, he’s the president, or he will be officially,” the maverick senator said. “And I think it’s pretty reasonable that if the president would like to have a conversation — or invite someone to have a conversation — to have it. And no one is my gatekeeper.”

“I’ve been very clear that I have ongoing conversations with people that are going to have an impact on Pennsylvania and for the nation,” he said. “And I am a senator for Pennsylvania, not just for Democrats. I am a senator for everyone in Pennsylvania.”

As most Democrats scoffed at Trump’s plans to gain control of Greenland, Fetterman did not dismiss the idea.

“I have no idea what’s going to exactly come up. So, I mean, regardless of whatever comes up, that’s going to be part of the conversation,” he said to CBS News.

He later joked with reporters who asked him why he was going to meet with the president-elect, saying, “I’m angling to be named the pope of Greenland.”

In December Fetterman placed blame for the Democrat defeat on former House Speaker and Democrat California Rep. Nancy Pelosi.

During an interview with Politico, Fetterman went after Pelosi when asked if he thought President Joe Biden should have dropped out of the race after the terrible debate with Donald Trump.
