Democratic Sen. John Fetterman of Pennsylvania slammed Democrats this week over the recent criticism of Joe Biden’s job performance.
Fetterman told Democrats who called out Biden’s shortfalls to go buy “Make America Great Again” hats, a sign they are helping Trump.
The Senator said he firmly believes Biden will not only win his home state, but will also win in November.
“The president is going to win here in Pennsylvania, and I’ve always believed that whoever wins Pennsylvania is going to be the next president,” Fetterman said.
“This is going to be difficult, and we all have to lean in on that.”
He then ripped Democrats over their concerns about Biden’s electability and ability to run the country.
“I don’t understand why,” Fetterman said of the criticism.

“I don’t know what’s in it for you to do that — whether you’re just chasing clout, or you want to make it in the news, or anything like that,” he said.
He added:
“But if you’re not willing to just support the president now and say these kinds of things, you might as well just get your MAGA hat. Because you now are helping Trump with this.”
Meanwhile, criticisms against Biden from within his own party continue to mount.
Not long after it was reported that Biden would not be charged for mishandling classified documents because of his age, many came out against the president.
Democrat Tom Suozzi said he would not yet be willing to endorse Biden’s re-election bid.
“I mean, the bottom line is he’s old!” Suozzi said of the president during an interview with WNYW-TV.
“I mean, he’s 81 years old,” he added.
“We all know people — I know 81-year-old people that are in good shape, and I know 81-year-olds that are not in great shape. He’s old, and there’s no question about it.”
