CNN — Pennsylvania Democratic Senate Candidate John Fetterman said in a national television interview last week that he has always supported fracking in his state, but in 2018 Fetterman said he never supported the industry and “never” will.

The comments are part of a long and often contradictory series of positions from the Senate candidate on the industry, which provides tens of thousands of jobs and contributes millions to Pennsylvania’s economy.

It’s questionable, given his mental issues, whether Fetterman even remembers what fracking is.

Fetterman appears to be a clone of Biden, both health-wise and policy-wise. I too recall Biden specifically calling people liars who said he was going to get rid of fracking. Then on day one in office - day one - Biden began his jihad on oil and fracking. This country went from a net oil exporter, to begging the Saudis to pump more oil, while we drain our strategic reserve. Following Biden’s war on oil, our economy collapsed.

Yeah, Fetterman is an exact replica of Calamity Joe.

Wow. The new CNN actually criticizing a hard-left Democrat, i.e. telling the truth about him? Things might be looking up.

Hat tip Clay and Buck. They just covered CNN covering this.

Biden made the same claim and banned new fracking as soon as he got in office.

All John is to anybody is a heartbeat with a vote.

Astonishingly, there are people who will vote for him.

“Ignorant” doesn’t begin to do them justice.

Rather than worrying about the tumor on his neck - that might be causing ‘stroke’ symptoms, it’s best to take on about his insane ideas.

And contradictions ...

and crap about his ‘if I had a magic wand’... he’d let criminals out of prison - all that crap needs to be aired out.

The only people talking about the tumor are the people saying don’t talk about the tumor.

“Never” and “Always” pretty much mean the same thing on CNN.

Some Democrats are more brain damaged than others, but they all seem brain damaged in some fashion.
