Pennsylvania Democrat John Fetterman is recording a video for the Republican National Convention praising Trump and GOP Sen. Dave McCormick for their work on steel industry policy. This is what happens when you're a Democrat in a swing state and the other party controls the machinery. You either stay relevant or disappear. Fetterman's playing the long game, betting that appearing moderate and pro-Trump on economics keeps his seat safe. The GOP gets to parade a Democrat, Fetterman gets air cover for 2026. Steel industry goodwill is real Pennsylvania politics. Both parties actually care about it there. But the optics are brutal: a sitting Democratic senator delivering propaganda at a Republican convention. The DNC is nowhere nearby.
