<p>Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) repeatedly refused to answer questions during an interview over the weekend about why he and Vice President Kamala Harris have flip-flopped on the issue of fracking.</p>
<p>Fetterman struggled to dodge the questions that he faced during a Sunday interview on NBC News&#8217; &#8220;Meet The Press&#8221; with Kristen Welker ahead of November&#8217;s elections.</p>
<p>&#8220;Vice President Harris, as you know, once supported a ban on fracking when she was running for president in 2020,&#8221; Welker said. &#8220;She even sued the Obama administration to prevent fracking off California&#8217;s coast. Now, she says she will not ban the practice as President.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Why should voters trust that that is really what the Vice President believes?&#8221; Welker asked.</p>
<p>Fetterman responded: &#8220;So strange why we just keep talking about fracking. Now, back in 2020 I said that that might be an issue, but it&#8217;s not going to be a defining issue. And now, in 2024 we&#8217;re still trying to talk about fracking. And now the other side, they&#8217;re talking about eating cats, and geese, and dogs, and saying absurd things, and talking about how, if Trump doesn&#8217;t win he said that, you know, you&#8217;d have to blame the Jews on that. And just absurd things. Now, like, having a serious policy conversation when the other side is just absolutely on fire. And here’s where we are, and here we are also, that it&#8217;s going to be very close in Pennsylvania, and it&#8217;s not going to be defined by fracking.&#8221;</p>
<p>Welker then highlighted some of Fetterman&#8217;s past anti-fracking remarks in 2016 and 2018 when he called it a &#8220;stain&#8221; on the state and said that he did not support it at all.</p>
<p>&#8220;But then in 2022, you said you absolutely support fracking,&#8221; she said. &#8220;Senator, what exactly do you like about fracking now?&#8221;</p>
<p>Fetterman responded: &#8220;It&#8217;s strange for some weird &#8216;gotcha,&#8217; kind of taking quotes out of context. And you know, here I am now, I&#8217;m a United States Senator, and I won by five points, a record margin back in &#8217;22. And again, it might be an issue in fracking. And I fully support fracking. So does the Vice President Harris. And now if you want to have a serious conversation about policy, then I would challenge Trump and Vance to have one, other than talking about eating pets.&#8221;</p>
<p>Welker again pressed Fetterman about why he flipped on the issue to which he only responded: &#8220;Uh-oh. &#8216;They&#8217;re eating dogs, they&#8217;re eating cats.&#8217; You know, again, so okay. Yes, any more on fracking? I think –&#8221;</p>
