Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) signaled on Saturday that if Sen. Chris Van Hollen (D-MD) were elected as majority leader, it could be the final nail in the coffin that would send him packing from the Democratic Party.

Fetterman told Fox News’s Saturday in America that he would see Van Hollen, who is challenging Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY) for the leading role, as “troubling” if he became Senate majority leader, due to his previous hostility toward Israel.
