Fetterman anklagar demokrater för Trump-besatthet

Pennsylvanias senator John Fetterman kritiserade i veckan sina partikollegor bland demokraterna för hyckleri i utrikespolitiken under en podcastintervju. Han anklagade partiet för att prioritera kritik mot Israel framför oro för Iran.

Fetterman samtalade med den libertarianska journalisten Nick Gillespie på onsdagen. Han försvarade Trump-administrationens agerande mot Iran och sade att han litar mer på dess bedömningar än på dem som kommer från Teheran, Peking eller Moskva. Senatorn varnade för att demokraterna riskerar att bli ett parti präglat av Trump-besatthet och glömma bort gemensamma amerikanska intressen.
