I don’t watch ABC’s “The View,” the screechy, fact-free whine-fest aired weekday mornings on ABC for reasons unknown to me, but as someone who covers the media—because I think it’s important to call them out always and often—I do see the clips.
They were up to their usual anti-American, race-baiting, far-left diatribes again Monday, but a surprising voice wasn’t buying it.
That’s right, Pennsylvania Democrat Senator John Fetterman, who is as confounding a figure on Capitol Hill as you could ever find. I was one of the many critics who blasted him during his 2022 campaign for Senate against Dr. Mehmet Oz, because he quite frankly seemed unfit for the job after suffering a massive stroke and appeared to be an adherent of far-left ideology.
But in one of the biggest political surprises you’ll ever see, he’s actually become a rare voice of reason in the Democrat party, and despite his “non-traditional” outfits—he shows up in gym clothes to official engagements (not a fan)—one could almost think he’s a Republican, based on his statements.
Of course, let me reiterate that he’s not a member of the GOP nor a friend to the party, and he still supports many of the bat-guano crazy progressive ideas that have diminished America in the Biden years. That being said, I nevertheless loved him torching the harridans of “The View.”
Gold:
Fetterman tells the vapid co-hosts of The View that Trump's NY case "was politically-motivated that wouldn't otherwise have been prosecuted if it was someone else."

Sunny Hostin's head nearly explodes because she can't believe what's she hearing.
Fetterman explains, "When the judicial system gets weaponized and targeted political enemies for political gain...that degrades our collective trust in this very important institution...The judicial system has to remain impartial."
The creepy ladies of the program, who live in an echo chamber where they’re always lauded for their despicable takes, were stunned:
Pennsylvania Democratic Sen. John Fetterman told "The View" on Monday that he believes the New York criminal trial against President Donald Trump was "politically motivated."
While discussing Trump and former President Joe Biden's controversial pardons, Fetterman said, "I also agree that the trial in this city, in New York, was politically motivated, that wouldn’t otherwise have been prosecuted if it was someone else."
Co-host Sunny Hostin seemed surprised and brought the conversation back around after, "Just for clarification, did you mean that the 34-count case in which Donald Trump was found guilty of various financial crimes was politically motivated here in New York?"
"I found that when the judicial system gets weaponized and targets political enemies for political gain, I think that’s inappropriate," Fetterman confirmed.
As if he hadn’t humiliated them enough, Fetterman had some more truths to tell:
"I think that degrades our collective trust in this very important institution, whether that’s a Democrat going after a Republican, or a Republican going after a Democrat," he said. "I like to call it strikes and balls, but the judicial system has to remain impartial. I mean, that’s really the cornerstone of our society."
Listen, I’m not suddenly going to say that Fetterman is a hero to our side—he’s not. What I will say, though, is he’s one of the most unusual politicians I’ve ever seen, and while I used to think he was just another progressive nutcase hell-bent on destroying America, he’s shown to be more nuanced than that. When you compare him to the likes of NY Rep. AOC, Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar, even New York's odious Senator Chuck Schumer, or the detestable CA Sen. Adam Schiff, he comes across as extremely close to reasonable.
In any case, love him or hate him, it was satisfying watching him leave the harridans of “The View” speechless. Who watches that shrill, illiterate nonsense is beyond me.
