John Fetterman's had a 108 pt drop in his net approval with PA Dems since 2023. His net rating is -40 pt net approval with them. His net popularity with his own party is worse than all senators who lost a primary this century. There's no historical analog to his unpopularity.

Amazing. All of this is a lie. The US and Israel have now twice launched wars on Iran amid talks that were, by most accounts, making progress. And the consensus view of US intelligence since 2007 is that Iran wasn’t seeking a nuclear weapon. Although we may have changed that now.

Negotiating with Iran’s new regime president. He is just out of frame, capitulating to my demands

Iranian Americans now overwhelmingly oppose the war on Iran: 66% opposed - 33% support.
