Graham Platner's rise happened entirely outside the Democratic Party's establishment, handpicked by a group of independent activists.
Before a woman Platner was romantically involved with publicly alleged that he sexually assaulted her, WSJ's Aaron Zitner reported on the strategy behind the activists' gamble on the Maine Democratic Senate nominee.
The sexual assault allegation, which Platner denied, has prompted top Senate Democrats and close allies to rescind their endorsements, cut off funding and call for him to drop out.
Sen. Bernie Sanders said on Tuesday that he had spoken with Platner and “in light of these very serious allegations, I have recommended that he step aside.”

Election conspiracy theories are self-refuting: Democrats are so devilishly clever that they coordinated multiple states & hundreds of counties to rig the election for Biden; but so stupid & inept that they forgot to rig taking the Senate & even lost seats in the House. QED.
One of my daughter's friends had to take her dog to the vet today. Apparently the dog is so thrilled that everyone is home all the time due to quarantine that she hurt her tail from "excessive wagging."
Imagine thinking that the government is corrupt, inept, inefficient, institutionally racist, sexist, and fascistic...
Then campaigning (and voting) to expand its size, power and influence over you, whilst giving it a complete monopoly on firearms and what words you can say.
