Fetterman: not understand why Democrats conversing with nominees is controversial

Fetterman: I’m Going To Vote To Confirm Rubio, Stefanik, and Duffy; Trump Won, This Is How Democracy Works

Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) told FOX News ‘Special Report’ host Bret Baier on Tuesday he doesn’t understand why conversing with President-elect Donald Trump’s cabinet nominees is considered “controversial.”

“I’m open to hear from everyone, and I don’t know why that’s controversial,” Fetterman said. “And I also would like to remind everyone on the Democratic side, that’s the way democracy works. Trump won, and now they’re going to run the table, and so they get to pick those kinds of people, and if you don’t have to agree with all of it, but I want to find a way to work together on a bunch of them

BRET BAIER, HOST: Oh, Sean Duffy. Senator Warner, the chair of the… co-chair of the Senate Intelligence Committee, met with Tulsi Gabbard.

He said he had a session with Ms. Gabbard, he went on with a lot of questions, he’s still got a lot of questions, and that we have to do a process, a beginning of a process, suggesting that there’s a long way to go. Is this, Tulsi Gabbard, one of the nominees that you could vote for?

FETTERMAN: Well, you know, I met with her, in fact I think I’ve met with virtually all of them, and the ones that I haven’t, they’re on my schedule, RFK and Governor Noem, so I’m happy to meet with all of them. And that’s also part of this, I don’t know why that was controversial. I mean, I got a lot of blowback just, you know, even to meet with them, and to me, I see that as just doing my job, and I’m going to have a conversation with anyone that would like to have a conversation with me.

And if someone believed everything that’s been written or said about me was true, I mean, you can’t possibly know me, or I think I could know her either, just based on someone read, but I’m going to sit down and have a conversation, and I’m really glad that I’ve done that, and some of these nominees I’m going to vote for already. In fact, you know, whether it’s our colleague Rubio, Representative Stefanik, or even Sean Duffy, and I expect to vote for him as well too, and Brooke Rollins for agriculture, again. So there’s a lot of them, I can say right now here on FOX, I’m going to vote for them.

But then there’s others, you know, that we’re going to go through the process, but I’m open to hear from everyone, and I don’t know why that’s controversial, and I also would like to remind everyone on the Democratic side, that’s the way democracy works. Trump won, and now they’re going to run the table, and so they get to pick those kinds of people, and if you don’t have to agree with all of it, but I want to find a way to work together on a bunch of them.
