Sen. John Fetterman
Democratic Sen. John Fetterman of Pennsylvania
  • Sen. John Fetterman says it can be tough being away from his family.
  • The Pennsylvania Democrat said he is reluctant to eat at a table for one.
  • But Fetterman has always made it point to not fit in fully in DC.

Democratic Sen. John Fetterman says he understands how his colleague Sen. Mitt Romney can find parts of living and working in DC isolating. He's just not eating salmon and ketchup to cope.

"I don't eat salmon sandwiches with ketchup and I don't have a recliner, but we both apparently just sit by ourselves in our apartments," Fetterman told The Washington Post in a profile about his year of living in the capital.
