Graham Platner has been forced out of the race due to accusations of sexual misconduct. We should now be consistent and remove every candidate who supports the rape and murder of women and children by the IDF.
I think any comparison between Abdul and Platner is absolutely disgusting. Using this as an attack strategy is harmful to getting the actual awful people out of politics. We will never be able to get justice for actual victims if you pull stunts like this.
So many people in the national press seem motivated to paint Maine voters as a bunch of dumb hogs who were hypnotized by Platner's voice and didn't care about taxing billionaires and cutting arms sales to Israel. I wonder why they'd want to foreclose these conversations, hmm...
I remember a story I once read about a girl who pleaded with her teacher not to tell her Dad that she'd been caught kissing another girl behind the bike shed. The school insisted.
The next day the girl had a fractured swollen jaw.
Violating kid's privacy feeds abuse. Don't.
You know what? Undermine their ratfuckery.
Announce a goddamn special election RIGHT NOW.
If they want to challenge it mitch can show up and do it himself, or invite the Governor to visit him in the hospital for a chat.
Stop letting these pricks cheat with impunity.
I would say it's inappropriate to show up to someone's house uninvited and violate their privacy like this. But, he has some experience with that. So I'm sure he'll be fine.
