Democratic senator Fetterman backs Trump’s Iran strikes
Democratic Senator John Fetterman of Pennsylvania on Monday defended President Donald Trump’s Operation Epic Fury strikes on Iran, breaking with many in his party to argue the action was necessary to prevent Tehran from acquiring a nuclear weapon.
“Every single member of the Senate has agreed that we can never allow Iran to acquire a nuclear bomb. … Now look at the situation after what the president decided to do. I truly don’t understand why people can’t just be energized and actually celebrate. … For me, it’s country over party. I’m proud to stand with our military," Fetterman said on Fox.
