宾夕法尼亚州民主党参议员约翰·费特曼周三晚间在共和党中期代表大会上发表惊喜视频致辞,称赞唐纳德·特朗普总统和共和党参议员戴夫·麦考密克,同时拒绝他所称的民主党“极端主义与社会主义”。

“我是一名务实的民主党人。我永远都会站在美国这边,”费特曼说道。“我永远都会拒绝极端主义和社会主义,以及那种反美的生活方式。”

费特曼将寻求连任参议员的麦考密克介绍为“那种能成事的参议员”,以及会“为宾夕法尼亚州而战”的人。

站在一座标志性的美国钢铁厂前,费特曼表示,他很自豪能与麦考密克和特朗普合作,捍卫宾夕法尼亚州的钢铁产业——该产业仍是该州经济和政治身份的核心组成部分。

“这正是我们将共同努力、并与特朗普总统一道,为捍卫钢铁谷的钢铁生活方式而战的事情,”费特曼说道。

此次发言意义非凡,因为时任民主党参议员出席了共和党首次中期代表大会,而特朗普预计将在11月3日选举前在此集结共和党选民。

他的亮相也凸显了他与民主党领导层以及党内左翼日益紧张的关系。费特曼多次在以色列、移民和特朗普对伊朗的军事行动等问题上与民主党人唱反调。

他一直是参议院中最直言不讳支持以色列的民主党议员之一,并批评了本党中试图限制美国对以色列支持的议员。费特曼还支持更严格的移民执法,并支持特朗普政府的部分提名,这些立场招致了民主党人的批评。

费特曼曾表示,如果民主党成为“反以色列政党”,他会考虑脱离民主党,但他并未表明自己计划更换党派。

这位参议员与麦考密克的关系也引发了人们对其政治未来的猜测。这两位宾夕法尼亚州参议员曾在2022年参议院选举中交锋,当时费特曼击败了共和党候选人穆罕默德·奥兹,而麦考密克则在共和党初选中落败。

自那以后,费特曼和麦考密克发展出了异常密切的关系。他们的竞选团队于7月成立了两党联合筹款委员会,这一安排引发关注,因为两位参议员分属不同党派。

麦考密克还一直强调自己与宾夕法尼亚州工业基地的联系,以及对该州钢铁工人的支持。费特曼的视频让他得以强化这一信息,同时将麦考密克塑造成一位愿意跨越党派界限合作的参议员。

此次亮相并不意味着费特曼要更换党派,但随着他继续与特朗普和共和党优先事项保持一致,这可能会加剧人们对他能否维持民主党选民支持的质疑。

这也为共和党提供了一个高调的民主党声音,用以展示他们的政党联盟正在突破传统共和党选民的范畴。

“这是一个与众不同的政党,”费特曼在谈到麦考密克时说道。“但我很自豪能将他算作我的挚友。”

Sen. John Fetterman, D-Pa., delivered a surprise video message at the GOP midterm convention Wednesday night, praising President Donald Trump and Republican Sen. Dave McCormick while rejecting what he described as the Democratic Party’s “extremes and socialism.”

“I’m a commonsense Democrat. I’m always going to stand with America,” Fetterman said. “I’m always going to reject the extremes and socialism and that anti-American way of life.”

Fetterman introduced McCormick, who is seeking re-election to the Senate, as “the kind of senator that gets the job done” and someone who will “fight for Pennsylvania.”

Standing in front of an iconic U.S. steel mill, Fetterman said he was proud to work with McCormick and Trump to defend Pennsylvania’s steel industry, which remains a central part of the state’s economic and political identity.

“That’s exactly the kind of thing that we will work together and will work with President Trump to fight and defend the steel way of life right here in the Steel Valley,” Fetterman said.

The message was notable because Fetterman is a sitting Democratic senator appearing at the Republican Party’s first midterm convention, where Trump is expected to rally GOP voters ahead of the Nov. 3 elections.

His appearance also highlighted his increasingly strained relationship with Democratic leaders and the party’s left wing. Fetterman has repeatedly broken with Democrats on issues including Israel, immigration and Trump’s military actions against Iran.

He has remained one of the most outspoken Democratic supporters of Israel in the Senate and has criticized members of his party who have sought to limit U.S. support for the country. Fetterman has also backed tougher immigration enforcement and supported some Trump administration nominees, positions that have drawn criticism from Democrats.

Fetterman has said he would consider leaving the Democratic Party if it became “the anti-Israel party,” though he has not indicated that he plans to switch parties.

The senator’s relationship with McCormick has also fueled speculation about his political future. The two Pennsylvania senators previously faced one another in the 2022 Senate race, when Fetterman defeated Republican nominee Mehmet Oz and McCormick lost the GOP primary.

Since then, Fetterman and McCormick have developed an unusually close relationship. Their campaigns formed a bipartisan joint fundraising committee in July, an arrangement that drew attention because the two senators belong to opposing parties.

McCormick has also sought to emphasize his ties to Pennsylvania’s industrial base and his support for the state’s steelworkers. Fetterman’s video allowed him to reinforce that message while presenting McCormick as a senator willing to work across party lines.

The appearance does not mean Fetterman is switching parties, but it is likely to intensify questions about whether he can maintain support from Democratic voters as he continues to align himself with Trump and Republican priorities.

It also gives Republicans a high-profile Democratic voice to showcase as they argue that the party’s coalition is expanding beyond traditional GOP voters.

“A different party,” Fetterman said of McCormick. “But I’m proud to count him as my great friend.”
