Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) is hitting Democrats for their stance against the Trump administration’s capture of former Venezuelan dictator Nicolás Maduro, saying their responses are rooted in partisan politics.
Following the U.S. military’s seizure and arrest of Maduro this weekend, many Democrats have criticized President Donald Trump, coming out against the operation and arrest of the foreign leader as an overreach. Fetterman, known for his willingness to break ranks when he disagrees with his party, pointed to former President Joe Biden’s own move to increase the bounty on Maduro to $25 million.
“Democrats, we all agree he was a terrible person, and the kinds of chaos and misery he brought to Venezuela. And he’s gone. Why can’t we just say that’s a good thing?” Fetterman said, referring to Maduro in a radio interview with John Catsimatidis and Rita Cosby of the Cats & Cosby Show.
