Watch John Fetterman Squirm When Grilled About This Key Issue

Democrat Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) dodged questions after being grilled about why voters should trust Vice President Kamala Harris on fracking. 

During an interview with NBC News, host Kristen Welker asked Fetterman if voters should believe Harris when she says she won’t ban fracking despite flip-flopping on her position. 

“It's so strange why we keep talking about fracking,” he said before Welker pointed out that he also previously called for a ban on fracking. 

“They're eating dogs. They're eating cats,” he responded, dodging the question and appearing to mitigate the focus on Springfield, Ohio’s Haitian immigrant problem. 

Like Harris, the Democrat senator has changed his stance on fracking several times. 

In a 2018 YouTube interview, Fetterman said, "I don’t support fracking at all, and I never have."

“I’ve signed the no fossil fuels money pledge," he said then. "I have never received a dime from any natural gas or oil company whatsoever."

During a 2016 debate, during his first run for the Pennsylvania Senate, Fetterman suggested he supported a fracking moratorium.

Meanwhile, in 2022, during a debate with his GOP challenger,  Dr. Mehmet Oz, Fetterman was questioned about his past positions on fracking, which he claimed he has "always supported."

“I've always supported fracking, and I always believe that independence with our energy is critical, and we can't be held, you know, ransom to somebody like Russia," Fetterman said at the time. “I've always believed that energy independence is critical, and I've always believed that — and I do support fracking, never taken any money from their industry, but I support how critical it is that we produce our energy and create energy independence."

So, honestly, can voters trust Democrats on their promised positions? Probably not. 

Harris told CNN during a 2019 interview that, “There’s no question I’m in favor of banning fracking.” 

The -senator endorsed the Green New Deal, which included a fracking ban. 

Harris also once accused oil companies of committing “climate crimes.” She then tried to sue the Obama Administration during her final year as a California attorney general for planning to allow fracking off the Pacific Coast.

However, if asked about her position on fracking today, Harris reportedly has a different view— yet cannot seem to explain where she stands exactly on the matter.
