Senator John Fetterman has just voiced his support for Senator Marco Rubio to be President-elect Trump’s Secretary of State.
Here’s what he said:
Unsurprisingly, the other team’s pick will have political differences than my own.
That being said, my colleague @SenMarcoRubio is a strong choice and I look forward to voting for his confirmation. pic.twitter.com/OUIDx5KK4J

Wow. Democrats don’t normally support Republican nominees these days so this is a welcome sign. It’s also a message to his colleagues that he will continue to be a more independent voice among Democrats and not just a rubber stamp for Schumer like most of them.
