Jennifer Welch on Graham Platner: “Everyone’s talking about toxic relationships and tattoos and all of this shit. Talk about Susan Collins voting to dismantle protections that keep women safe and keep women free because that is the real story here. She is a MAGA fascist to her core. I don’t give a fuck if somebody had a toxic relationship. I myself have been a toxic girlfriend, I’ve had toxic boyfriends. That’s part of the human experience”

You killed the moderate, now you get the radical

[Alex @aembot47]

I think people still underestimate just how much we hate Susan Collins and this administration in Maine. This guy reflects how many of us feel right now.

[Andy O'Brien @aobrien2010]

"We need a fucking battle cuz this son of a whore is asking for it. And I love to fight. [Platner's] willing to take them on. He has absolutely no fear & he comes up like a bear. I don’t want to hear anymore namby pamby shit from Susan Collins. I want her gone so fucking bad."

[Julian Andreone @JulianAndreone]

Graham Platner: “Susan Collins hasn’t met a war she doesn’t like, and it’s no surprise because she’s married to a lobbyist who represents the defense industry. You don’t see as many articles about that.”

James Carville backs Graham Platner: “We’ve got a fucked up guy who could be 100x more fucked up than he is and he’d never be as fucked up as what we’ve got in Washington. This country is about to lose it, the whole goddamn thing. We gotta win this. If we got a person that’s understandably got issues, good. Maybe people oughta see it and maybe we oughta be reminded what these stupid wars have brought about and the consequence of said stupid wars that stupid Susan Collins’ been for all of her political life”

does she know she has 30 minutes

@AnthonyMEmerson I agree but I don’t see a world where he drops even if he gets 51%. From his POV if he drops out this campaign would have been a humiliation ritual with nothing gained and there’s no guarantee his movement would live on with whoever replaces him.

[Alex @aembot47]

The primary is in 4 days…

[Politics & Poll Tracker 📡 @PollTracker2024]

CNN: According to a source familiar with Governor Janet Mills, people across Maine are reaching out to tell Mills they’re voting for her and encouraging her to get fully back into the race.

this story isn't as bad as what people were speculating but it's still very bad

[Organizermemes @OrganizerMemes]

My position on platner is the same I had on changing out Biden

We should be 100% behind our nominee until the moment it becomes necessary to cut them off for the good of the party and country and if that occurs it must be swift and decisive

[David Weigel @daveweigel]

I know people who’ve moved from one anonymous job to another and deleted their entire millennial online life out of caution. A senate candidate leaving up a shirtless dating profile is just boneheaded.

[Alex @aembot47]

My underrated pick to replace him is Hannah Pingree. Only candidate endorsed by both Mills and Platner and it’s entirely possible she could end up in second place in the Gov primary. She would be a solid bridge candidate between the factions.

[NickFrank40 @NickyFrank30]

My answer here is to replace Platner with whoever comes in second in the guberatorial primary (Shah or Jackson)

[Alex @aembot47]

A total disaster if true

[Keith Edwards @keithedwards]

@SethAbrams1 It's in the story. WaPo racing to get it out as well. I'm hearing it's more than one woman.

[Alex @aembot47]

@AnthonyMEmerson It feels like waiting for some kind of bomb to go off but some are saying it’s a grenade and others are saying it’s thermonuclear.

[Hunter Biden @HunterBiden]

WTF timeline are we on. Someone called me the MAGA whisperer and I’ll gladly take the title. Left, right, D or R we all want the same things. We’re being divided on purpose by the Epstein Elite Oligarch class because as long as we’re at each other’s throats, they get fat and rich off of our misery. The second we figure out we agree on more than we disagree, they’re done. Love your neighbor. Be yourself. Radical honesty. No fucks given, no fucks taken. Everything else is just noise. (But still fuck Jake “Brick Tamland” Tapper on any time line)
