29. If he was elected in 2022? Then Pennsylvania can't vote him out til 2028.

Senate terms are six years.

That gives the Dems some time to find a replacement to primary Fetterman. Three more years we’ve gotta hold our noses til we can get that done. BUT we don’t have to hold our tongues OR our patience. OR our outrage.
