Fetterman: Picking on Trans or Gay People Does Not Make You a Man

“If your political capital comes from picking on trans kids or gay kids or anything like that, you’re just bankrupt throughout all of this. My version of being a man is like, hey, I like rib-eyes, I like Motörhead, and I’m never going to pick on trans kids and gay kids… It doesn’t make you tough. It doesn’t make you a man to pick on trans or gay kids. It just makes you an asshole.”

— Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA), on CNN.

Fetterman reportedly raised $2 million by Wednesday afternoon. The Oz campaign went dollar for dollar, filing a fundraising report showing nearly $2.2 million in receipts. But $2 million of that came from Oz himself.
