"The View" co-host Sunny Hostin pressed Sen. John Fetterman, D-Pa., on Tuesday on why he voted to end the government shutdown, accusing him of bringing "a butter knife to a gunfight." Hostin quoted Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., and Gov. Gavin Newsom, D-Calif., who both criticized the decision by eight senators to vote to end the shutdown. She also said Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., "blamed the GOP." "As you mentioned, Democrats had big wins last week, so you had momentum. Why give in now? Why bring a butter knife to a gunfight? Are you willing to gamble that the GOP will negotiate on healthcare in good faith once the government reopens? Because if that gamble is wrong, half a million Pennsylvanians that you represent, their healthcare costs will skyrocket if you are wrong," Hostin said. "I believe you are wrong."

Sen. John Fetterman joined ABC’s The View on Tuesday for a virtual interview in which he vehemently defended his votes to end the government shutdown and shared some of the thinking behind his new memoir. The Pennsylvania Democrat joined the daytime talk show at a key moment for his party and for his personal brand. In a pair of votes Sunday and Monday, Fetterman and seven other senators crossed party lines to vote for a Republican-backed bill to end the government shutdown. And Tuesday, the senator’s memoir, Unfettered, was published. Fetterman upheld his position to end the shutdown, saying that prolonging a lapse in federal funding would make air travel “less safe,” perpetuate hardships for military members and other federal workers, and “weaponize” SNAP, the crucial food assistance program on which many families depend.

Sen. John Fetterman (D-Pa.) went after Democrats “celebrating” Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.), who has been at odds with her party in recent weeks, calling her “crazypants.” “MTG is quite literally the last person in America that I’m going to take advice — or to, to get their kinds of my leadership and values from. And now, if Democrats are celebrating crazypants like that, then that’s on them,” Fetterman, who also has recently been known to buck his party, said on ABC’s “The View” when asked about his vote to reopen the government.

The government shutdown lasted 40 days before Senate Democrats abandoned the filibuster that closed offices, left workers without paychecks, threatened supplemental food benefits for millions, saw the beginning of a gradual shutdown of the commercial aviation system, and much more. The question is: Why did those Democrats hold out for so long? Why did they stubbornly play a losing hand even as millions of Americans suffered?
