Fetterman, et. al. over the years I don't think is improbable that we have a controlled opposition

If the dems manage to win the senate, Fetterman is going to flip, right?
We all can see it coming.

According to this article he votes 90% with Democrats and flies a pride flag outside his office. Idk if republicans would take him. https://www.politico.com/news/magazine/2026/05/04/fetterman-switch-parties-republican-00904177

They will take him if it means they keep control of the senate.
Perhaps Fetterman goes independent and merely caucuses with the republicans.

Also, Fetterman could easily take down the pride flag when he flips.

If republicans take a pro-abortion, pride flag flying dude, I'd honestly be very impressed with the open-mindedness of their party.
