Today's Poll Question at Smerconish.com: "Is John Fetterman a Democratic Party asset or liability?" Michael unpacks the growing divide within the Democratic Party as Senator John Fetterman (D-PA) breaks ranks on key issues, including Iran and U.S. foreign policy. After yesterday's conversation with Fetterman (listen to the podcast episode!), Michael explores whether his independence, candor on mental health, and cross-party appeal strengthen or undermine Democratic prospects. With polling showing uneven support among Democrats but surprising favorability among Republicans, the episode examines what Fetterman’s trajectory could mean for 2028, party unity, and the broader political landscape.
