The polling showed that Fetterman was at +68 with Democrats in Pennsylvania back in 2023.
“He was a Democrat liberal darling,” Enten said.
That is no longer the case.
“Look at how low he has fallen, down to negative 40 points,” Enten said showing the new data. “He’s down there with the Titanic among Democrats in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
I’m all for term limits, but 2 years is not nearly long enough to be effective in a job.
We have a lot of examples of state governments that have term limits. There’s no evidence that governance has been improved. The only thing that changes is that more power shifts to the civil servants, and to the party bureacrats who control the revolving door to the next position.
Term limits are the kind of solutions that you hear MAGAts proposing: if it begins with “Why don’t we just…” then it’s probably already been thought of, been tried, and has failed.
And most importantly, power shifts to the lobbyists who help advise on how to write the laws to maximally benefit their clients. It’s yet another carve out for billionaires and those who control extensive capital.
Well presumably he would be re-elected if he does what he has promised to do.
That’s not what term limit means. You must mean term length.
Thanks, yeah I think I kind of combined the 2 in my mind. Maybe something like 2 year term length with a maximum term limit of 6 years?
I’d be concerned that any politician who had to be reelected every two years would spend one year fundraising and another year campaigning for reelection, then repeat. Only the shortest and easiest of short-term goals would stand any chance of being achieved.
So… the House.
So in essence you want congressmen to have to campaign even more than they do now.
