Fetterman misspeaks about his party at Texas Tribune Festival
Original: Fetterman misspeaks on party at TribFest
Senator John Fetterman of Pennsylvania misspoke when discussing his Democratic Party affiliation during a appearance at the Texas Tribune Festival in Austin. Clips of the remark circulated quickly, drawing criticism from progressives who already question his party loyalty and mockery from opponents. Supporters argue it was a simple slip of the tongue, while critics say it reflects his drift from party positions.
Why now: Fetterman's ongoing tensions with his own party make any slip on the topic politically charged.
