https://www.post-gazette.com/news/politics-local/2025/04/09/dave-mccormick-tele-town-hall-give-president-trump-some-time/stories/202504090087Ironic, and hilarious, that Mr West Point, honor, duty, country grad and combat veteran is too scared to meet with his constituents face to face.
McCormick gave most ot usual stock answers to tough questions from constituents. Supports veterans, won''t cut soc security, medicare/medicaid, supports Trump's agenda, yada. The biggest news is that his 87 yr old father is nervous about the economy and he'll only serve 2 terms because he believes in term limits. I think Pennsylvania voters will decide if he gets that second term or not.

in 2028.

Works. Don't think he likes his new job. I agree with you all.

(16,745 posts)7. My read as well
Fetterman is kind of a loner, introverted even. This isn't the usual personality of a politician.

(66,821 posts)4. I wonder if any of the callers asked him if he has the intestinal fortitude to vote against bidget
Guessing not.

(16,745 posts)6. He claimed he would protect PA interests
or something along those lines, but as you point out, compare what he says to what he does.
