MURRYSVILLE, Pa. — Sen. John Fetterman knew it was coming. The Pennsylvania Democrat knew after he stood against illegal immigration at the U.S. southern border. He knew when he advocated for Israel after the Hamas attacks on Oct. 7, 2023, and when he voted to reopen the federal government this year and last. He understood the angry pushback he would receive and how these decisions could make or break him in American politics.
