Fed-up Fetterman bristles when pressed again on CNN whether he's ditching Dems

Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) appeared annoyed Wednesday when he was asked — again — if he had plans to leave the Democratic Party.

Fetterman, who has faced questions before over where his loyalties stand and shook President Donald Trump's hand before the State of the Union address Tuesday night, was talking to CNN anchor Kasie Hunt about the outlook for Democrats in the midterm elections. Fetterman will be up for reelection in 2028, but has not yet announced if he has decided to run again for his Senate seat.

"I'm not changing the party," Fetterman said. "And I might clap for some things that I agree, but, you know when you represent Pennsylvania that's there. It's like, 'hey, we would all love like a... a blue state, you know, then you can really just have to talk to one side. But for me it's a special responsibility. If you represent Pennsylvania that, you know we have to find a way forward."

Hunt pressed him on whether he would run again.
