(292 posts)People change for many reasons, but I don't recognize this version of Fetterman.
There is a sickness in this country now. There is a podcast I listened to regularly. It was a panel of guys that covered a diverse range of interesting topics. I felt like they had a balanced, fact-based view of the topics and I appreciated that. To the extent that truth has a liberal bias, I considered them fairly progressive-minded. Their program was not overtly political, but when their topics interested with political events, they were not afraid to make political commentary that was factual and on point.
Since the election, several of the guys have sounded considerably more MAGA. I found this disappointing because I considered them intelligent, well-grounded people. I don't expect they to become crusaders against Trumpism, but there is no reason for them to show such deference to the MAGA way of thinking.
We are seeing this Overton Window effect EVERYWHERE now.
