      Political affiliation is not genetic. Plenty of WASPs are on the left. I mean John Fetterman is a WASP. And there are plenty of examples of people who go the opposite way politically from their parents.

        Protestant is the P in WASP. Is Fetterman religious?

        I mean all politicians in the US have to act like they’re religious, but how many regularly go to church? Fetterman doesn’t strike me as the Church type, but maybe.

          He went to Albright College, which is a private Methodist university. Maybe he isn’t religious now, but that sure doesn’t sound like something someone who isn’t religious would do.
