I have listened to this multiple times and I’m still not entirely sure what I am hearing…
I’m going to give you all the “Fact-Checks” below so you can see what the all-knowing Fact-Checkers have to say, but I’m just telling you John Fetterman sure did choose a very weird way to say what he says in here.
Also, beyond just one phrase which may have been poorly constructed, listen to the whole clip.
It’s point after point of why people like Trump, why he’s so loved in PA, and why he’s going to be tough to defeat.
Listen for yourself:
John Fetterman
Just Said

Ok, so now the Fact-Checks….
I’ll do my own first.
He starts off kind of pretending to speak as if he’s a voter in PA that likes President Trump and so he’s sort of speaking in the third person as if he was that voter, but then it seems to shift halfway through and jump back to first-person.
That’s why it becomes confusing.
Here’s the Community Note on Twitter:
And if you want to watch the Full Interview so you can see every single bit of context, I’ve got you covered.
Watch here:
Look, do I think Fetterman is going to vote for President Trump?
Most likely not, although it is becoming very strange how much he keeps praising him.
Slip of the tongue on one particular phrase or not, he sure does keep praising him a lot.
LIKE HERE:
Fetterman: “Trump has created a special kind of hold within the coronet he’s remade”
Fetterman: "Trump has created a special kind of hold within the coronet he’s remade"
Do you remember when John Fetterman was so brain dead (literally) that he was having trouble stringing together sentences?
I'm not being mean, I mean that literally.
Remember when he looked like this and was showing off the "transcription app" he uses on his phone because he was so unable to speak in complete sentences?
Fetterman Shows Off Transcription App He Has Been Secretly Using
Well, now he suddenly speaks very impressively...
And he's using words I just had to look up!
Do you know what "coronet" means?
Can you use it in a sentence?
Fetterman just did.
Ok, I won't keep you in suspense any longer, here's what it means:

Fetterman says Trump has 'special kind of place' in PA after assassination attempt
President Donald Trump has a "special" connection with the people of Pennsylvania, Democratic Sen. John Fetterman warns.
Fetterman made the observation during a conversation with The Atlantic editor-in-chief Jeffrey Goldberg during the 2024 Atlantic Festival on Thursday.
"Trump has created a special kind of hold within the coronet he’s remade – the party – and he has a special kind of place in Pennsylvania, and I think that only deepened after the first assassination attempt," Fetterman said.
ADVERTISEMENT"I also want people to understand, you know, and it’s not science, but there is, there’s energy and there are kinds of anger on the ground in Pennsylvania — and people are very committed and strong," Fetterman said Thursday. "And I joked that his signs became like the state flower – and you see that everywhere."
I found the exact clip where he says it...
You can watch here and see how perfectly and even eloquently he speaks now:

This isn't the first time Fetterman has confused both sides by seeming to support Trump -- or at least supporting conservative values.
What do you think is going on with this very strange man?
