The fact that the Democratic Party is rallying around an unequivocal scumbag like Graham Platner is damning. So desperate is our aspiring totalitarian party to pack the Supreme Court, add automatic Democratic states like Puerto Rico and D.C. to the stars on the flag, open the borders and lock up their political opponents that they are willing to betray their duty to the political system not to present untrustworthy candidates to voters. It doesn’t matter that Platner, about to be nominated as a Senate candidate in Maine, is a liar, a Nazi admirer, a serial sexual offender and has no qualifications for office. The Washington Free Beacon explains his current occupation: Platner runs…
“…a boutique hobby farm—whose main function is to supply oysters to a restaurant owned by Platner’s mother…Platner, who receives roughly $4,800 per month in VA disability benefits, did not take a salary from the company last year, though his wife, a schoolteacher, did, according to his personal financial disclosure. The filing lists one entity as paying Platner more than $5,000: the Ironbound Restaurant and Inn, a “casual fine dining restaurant” and “old world luxury” hotel owned by Platner’s mother, which is the primary purchaser of his oysters.”
Wow. Sure sounds Senatorial to me! So it doesn’t matter to Democrats that Platner has no business running for high office. What matters is that he might make it possible for the Democrats to defeat RINO Susan Collins and get a Senate majority. The ends justify the means for this party, always. But if it embraces the likes of Graham Platner, that should tell everyone all they need to know about the 2026 Democratic Party.
The New York Times this week quoted several women who suggested Platner engaged in domestic abuse. Huh! I’m so old I can remember when Democrats got rid of a sitting Democratic Senator because #MeToo was the rage. One long-time Platner squeeze told the Times that Platner knew his now-covered tattoo was a Nazi symbol, telling the outlet that Platner referred to the tattoo as “my Totenkopf.” Wait: I thought it was Republicans who were the Nazis. This is so confusing…

He fits everything the dems say they hate. He should be a national embarassment, hated far beyond what Trump is, according to the logic of the left. No forgiveness for mistakes, right (assuming some of his conduct and statements were as such). Bring down the fire upon him for violating every woke rule plus the rules normal people follow…yet, here we are, like you said.
Just goes to show the left is using their isms and phobia labels as political attacks rather than real arguments.
Saw some guy on twitter comment that Trump is what poor republicans think a rich person is and Platner is what rich democrats think a poor person is.
Clearly errant in many regards, but an interesting generalization.
I love the photo of the two Eastern Front re-enactors. Where did that come from? It even looks as if they are in Bernie’s office. Hilarious.
It’s an AI meme. It was too good to pass up.
