During a recent appearance on the Sean Hannity Show, Senator John Fetterman of Pennsylvania revealed the one thing that would make him leave the Democrat Party. You can probably guess what it is.

Fetterman said that if the party made being anti-Israel part of their official platform, that would do the trick. He would leave the party.

Now, before you get excited about the prospect of Fetterman joining the GOP, you should hear some of the other things he says in this segment.

He actually praises James Talarico of Texas as a great guy.

Partial transcript via Townhall:

The senator criticized members of his party for their stance on the war in Gaza. “The individual that just won in Colorado, she refused to describe the situation where someone firebombed a group of Jews that was just rallying for the Israeli hostages at that time and killed a woman,” he said. “She refused to even address that. It is that antisemitic. So this is the point.”…

“I don’t know why we have other Democrats, you know, even people that are calling for their jobs in leadership saying ‘you’re next, you’re next,’” he said. “Why can’t you just push back and say these are abhorrent beliefs, you know, communism, socialism.”

The lawmaker continued, saying, “what my real concern is, the Democratic Party is going to become, and put it into the platform, an anti-Israel party, that Israel does not have the right to defend itself and to exist.”

He added, “And the second that becomes a formal part of our platform, that’s the one thing that would push me out of this party because I’m deeply alarmed the way the Democratic Party is going after Israel and allowing rank antisemitism to just flourish, you know, in the left on the campuses as well too.”

As the DSA gains more power in the Democrat Party, their embrace of antisemitism will become more normalized.

These people have a pathological hatred for Israel and by extension, Jews. Fetterman is right to be concerned.
