Sen. John Fetterman (D-Pa.) is facing mockery after a statement he made about the caliber of the politicians in Washington, D.C.

During an appearance on CBS’ “The Late Show With Stephen Colbert,” Fetterman said, “You all need to know that America is not sending their best and brightest to Washington, D.C.”

“Like, sometimes, you literally just can’t believe like these people are making the decisions that are determining the government. It’s actually scary,” he added.

The audience laughed in response.

Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee (R) wrote on X, formerly Twitter, “Fetterman speaks truth. He’s unaware of it, but he embodies the very truth he speaks. This could have been a skit on SNL. But it was a rare funny moment on Colbert.”
