Democratic Sen. John Fetterman (D) says former Vice President Kamala Harris, the Democratic Party’s nominee for president in 2024, “lost the plot” when she called President Trump a “fascist.”
Fetterman made his comments during an interview with Fox News’s “Hannity”.
Asked by the show’s host, Sean Hannity, why Democrats are comparing Trump to authoritarian leaders of history, Fetterman said some of his fellow Democrats have gone too far in their rhetoric and criticized Harris.
“I don’t know why, and I have always refused to say that,” Fetterman said. “When Vice President Harris referred to President Trump as a ‘fascist,’ and I knew, absolutely, we lost the plot at that point.”
Fetterman warned that calling Trump a fascist or comparing him to Nazi leader Adolf Hitler risked impugning the millions of Americans who voted for him.
“If you call the president or someone like a fascist, you are effectively calling the people who are going to vote for him [the same thing], and then they must be fascist too … or they support fascism and those things. And that is just not true,” Fetterman explained.
Harris called Trump a “fascist” and “dangerous” in late October 2024, as her campaign appeared to be flagging.
Asked by host Anderson Cooper at a CNN town hall whether she thought Trump is a fascist, Harris replied: “Yes, I do. Yes, I do.”
“I believe that Donald Trump is dangerous,” she said.
“As the president of the United States, the commander in chief, he’s saying to his generals, in essence, ‘Why can’t you be more like Hitler’s generals?’” she added, referring to a claim made by former Trump White House chief of staff John Kelly.
Fetterman warned Wednesday that extreme rhetoric could lead to violent actions, such as last month’s assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk at Utah Valley University.
“That kind of extreme kinds of rhetoric makes it easier for those … extreme kinds of actions, even like what happened to poor Charlie Kirk,” he said.
“We’re forgetting that we need each other here,” he said. “I refuse to be a part of it and comparing people to Hitler and those things.
“If that’s required to win, then I refuse to,” he said.
She didn't "lose the plot" John. She REVEALED it. Since woke Democrats hyperbolic overuse of calling opponents of the Democratic Party "Racist" served to render it into a ridiculous charge, they needed a new moniker to paint opponents with. They settled on the Post-WWII Global Consensus' former enemies, the Fascists. In WWII, if you wanted to make an opponents arguments "beyond the pale" of consideration, you just called him a "Fascist". Any words spoken by a "Fascist" were at the time (30's and 40s) to be immediately discounted. And as the word "Fascist" still wields some influence globally (and as immigration has rendered charges of racism increasingly incredible) this was the epithet selected. This choice of terms pairs well with an 80 year "Global Democracy Spreading" effort by the CIA, NED, and intelligence services to overthrow "totalitarian and fascistic" governments and transform them into neoliberal democracies. These efforts failed miserably in the Global War on Terror in the Middle East, but sponsored many successful "Colour" Revolutions in former Soviet territories and their satellites.
The Problem with this strategy, however, has been in that in fighting the Fascists in the 30s and 40s, we ourselves became more and more fascistic. We became the very monsters we were fighting. And none more so than the Democrats that allied themselves in combatting racism (calling themselves anti-racists) and now the ones combatting the so-called "enemies of democracy" (Republicans/ Fascists) calling themselves anti-fascists.
The new charge (fascist) is even more hyperbolic than the old charge (racist). And it's just as dangerous, as it carries the inevitable slippery-slope trajectory towards violence.
It also shows that the Democratic Party and Never-Trump Republicans are operating in Lock-Step with the Rogue US Intelligence Community wishing to undermine President Trump's "America First" concentration and expand on their Neoliberal Globalist ambitions, and subjecting the World's Resources to exclusive European and American Neoliberal, and increasingly Technofeudal, oligarchy exploitation.
In other words, Democrats and their globalist allies have reached an advanced stage of Reductio ad Hitlerum. Everyone opposed to them has literally become "Hitler". @@ And you must always fight fire with fire.

donald trump is a fascist.
The republican party is racist.
Given that he is in denial of facts and not being helpful to the Democratic Party or American citizens opposed to fascism, John Fetterman should resign.
Hear Hear!
More valid observation on the fascism of the KSoA and his tRumpublican racist party.
Via Copilot...
By invoking Nietzsche, the trump supporter performs a ceremonial reversal...
-Critics = monster-fighters.
-Trump = misunderstood force.
-Nietzsche = moral authority.
-Abyss = liberal hypocrisy.
This is not a philosophical reading—it’s a ritual accusation, a spell of moral inversion. It reframes critique as corruption, dissent as degeneration.

I seem to remember that when Fetterman was a vegetable, you supported him whole-heartedly. Now that he's recovered his faculties you want him to cancel himself.
Independent thought seems to constitute to a threat in your mind to your neoracist guilt-pride directed anti-intellectualism.
Both tropes completely discredited on multiple threads here at Tea Leaves and Farmer's Letter. :)
For Philosophical readings, I suggest you visit Farmers Letters. For Political Ones, you'll find those here.
I Have Some Great news! Our Wonderful President Donald J. Trump Is Winning Again, He Just Keeps on Winning.... And The Ignorant, Demented, Democrats Are Losing AGAIN!
That is because you have a very bad memory. Fetterman was never a "vegetable". And yes, I supported him. But it turned out that the stroke changed him, and not in good ways. I couldn't have known how this would turn out. What's clear is that he has not "recovered his faculties" and he isn't exhibiting "independent thought", but altered thought.
John Fetterman: @realDonaldTrump saw his shadow- 4 more years of fascism... Fetterman wrote this early February 2017, along with a gif from the film Groundhog Day.
Is that so?
Is that so?
LC: Is that so?
Only in Minus FJ's White Supremacist delusions.
Did you say something, Manure Boy Dervish? Or did you just rip a stinky cheese?
Your plug is leaking gas, manure boy Dervish.
Dervy's fart robot is passing gas again.
Derpwood's going to need a bigly refill of Apretude, lest he suffer another mental meltdown.
Oh lookie, the rat from the Orange swamp spreading his slime.
Yeah Derv, Fetterman lost his edumacated guilt-pride in the stroke and came back to his common senses.

Taking Apretude without having HIV could lead to serious side effects, including liver damage, allergic reactions, and mood disturbances—even if you're otherwise healthy.
Apretude (cabotegravir) is a long-acting injectable medication approved for pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) to reduce the risk of HIV-1 infection in people who are HIV-negative. It’s not a general-purpose mental health drug, and using it without medical need or supervision could be risky.
⚠️ Potential Risks of Taking Apretude Without HIV.
Liver damage: Apretude has been linked to liver problems in people with and without prior liver issues. Symptoms include yellowing of the skin or eyes, dark urine, pale stools, nausea, and abdominal pain.
Severe allergic reactions: These can be life-threatening and include rash, fever, swelling of the face or tongue, trouble breathing, and blisters in the mouth.
Mood changes and depression: Some users have reported depression, suicidal thoughts, and anxiety—even without a prior mental health history.
Injection site reactions: Pain, swelling, lumps, and bruising at the injection site are common and can persist.
Long-lasting presence: Apretude stays in the body for up to 12 months or longer after the last injection, meaning side effects may linger.
🧪 Drug Resistance Risk.
If someone unknowingly has HIV and takes Apretude alone, it can lead to drug-resistant HIV strains, making future treatment more difficult. That’s why HIV testing is mandatory before and during Apretude use.
🛑 Bottom Line.
Even hypothetically, taking Apretude without medical indication is not harmless. It’s a potent drug with long-lasting effects and serious risks. The comment you received may be satirical or mocking, but the medication itself is not something to experiment with casually.

I don't have HIV and (unlike you), don't engage in any behavior that could result in me contracting HIV.
Nothing you write on your moronic blog or in any of your moronic blog comments has ever caused me to have a "mental meltdown".
...only the guilt-pride cordyceps.
They're supposedly very good for the Immune System.
from Google AI: It contains bioactive compounds like cordycepin, which has been studied for potential benefits including immune support, but further research is needed to confirm these benefits in humans.
What is Cordyceps?
Cordyceps: is a genus of ascomycete fungi, many species of which are parasitic on insects and other arthropods.
The life cycle involves a spore infecting a host, growing inside, and eventually killing it before sprouting a stalk.
Many species are known for their traditional medicinal use, particularly in Asia.
Potential benefits and uses
Immune system support: Cordyceps may improve immunity by stimulating certain cells and chemicals in the immune system.
Athletic performance: It is often used to improve athletic performance, though scientific evidence to support this is limited.
Antioxidant and anti-inflammatory: Cordyceps contains bioactive components like cordycepin, which has been studied for its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.
Potential anti-tumor activity: Some research suggests it may help fight cancer cells, but this requires more study.
Other uses: Traditional uses include treatments for sexual problems, liver and kidney disorders, and respiratory issues.
Side effects and risks
Generally considered safe: When taken appropriately, Cordyceps is not thought to be toxic.
Potential side effects: Possible side effects include upset stomach, nausea, and loose stools.
Immune system activation: People with certain medical conditions, particularly autoimmune disorders, should be cautious as Cordyceps may activate the immune system.
Lack of long-term data: There is a lack of long-term data on Cordyceps use in humans.
Potential toxins: Some wild Cordyceps samples have been found to contain levels of arsenic, a naturally occurring and poisonous metal.
Growing and harvesting
Natural Cordyceps is difficult to find and can be expensive.
To meet demand, many supplements are made from lab-grown or fermented species to protect natural populations.....
