Senator John Fetterman (D-PA) said Sunday on CNN’s “State of the Union” that President Joe Biden should not “capitulate to the fringe” of his party on Israel.
Host Jake Tapper asked, “A senior administration official tells CNN that the President Biden, told Prime Minister Netanyahu that the U.S. will not participate in any offensive operations against Iran. Do you think that’s the right call or should direct U.S. military action, as some of your colleagues in the Senate are suggesting, should that be on the table?”
Tapper asked, “Marco Rubio was just on the show and he said the White House leaking the fact that Biden told Netanyahu not to directly respond to take the ‘win,’ was offensive to him because it seemed to suggest that it’s Biden trying to appease the far left in his party. What’s your response?”
Fetterman said, “The president is entitled to his own views and whatever he decides to do. But I would never capitulate to the fringe. I’ll never pander to that as well. In fact, that empowers Hamas and Hamas, they’re actually convinced they’re winning the PR war. And they’re never going to negotiate at this point. They think that they’re going to hold onto the very end.”
