The imminent exit of two of Fetterman’s longest-serving staffers continues a string of departures from the senator’s office over the past year.

Summary

Two senior staffers, Charlie Hills and Tré Easton, are leaving Sen. John Fetterman’s office amid his shift toward a more Trump-friendly stance.

Their departures follow other high-profile resignations, including his chief of staff last year.

Fetterman has evolved from a Bernie Sanders supporter to a vocal pro-Israel Democrat and critic of his party’s anti-Trump approach.

He has backed some Trump policies and nominees but opposed others. Despite this shift, he remains a reliable Democratic vote.

    I voted for the fucker and I am so pissed about it. He seemed cool but then became the biggest disappointment. Fetterman can get fucked.

        Yeah. Doesn’t make me feel any less rotten about the whole thing though.

      I mean unless there’s a primary, it’s still the better vote. It’s the hellhole we live in… We have to go with the guy who says he’s going to do good things, then disappoints us and does less than half the good he said, and adds in some bad things.

      Or we can go with the guy who says he’s going to do horrific things… and then meets and exceeds all his promises.

        Hellhole is a great description. Especially the area I live in. I’ve found a couple of havens where I can socialize with like-minded people, so at least I have some kind of sanctuary from the madness that surrounds me. I have to drive 45 minutes to get to those places but that’s whatever at this point for me.
