@headintheoffice Maybe just maybe, he's actually that good for this time and place. He had one of the best campaign rollouts we've seen in a long time.
Maybe just maybe you should stop pretending like you know what the fuck you're talking about and listen to the voters in Maine.
I hope everyone realizes that the Dem case against Paxton gets weaker and weaker the longer Platner sticks around and the more that’s uncovered. And for those saying “GOP was gonna get behind him anyway” I simply ask what did that say about Talarico’s chances in the first place?
MAINE VOTER ON FOX: “Platner is the best candidate by far. Probing into the minutiae of his personal relationships when you don't do that for any other candidate is ridiculous."
“That to me is the biggest difference between the Platner situation and the Trump situation. One person says, yeah, that's wrong. I need to do better. The other person is like, what are you talking about? That's not that bad”
The Platner shit has me reliving the Bernie Moment. The coalition of centrist wokes and right wing psychos demanding answers for annoying, stupid scandals is something unseen for a long time
CNN: Platner’s campaign just announced raising over $200,000 in a single day following the New York Times article — their best fundraising day since Janet Mills dropped out of the Maine Senate race
Republicans and centrists tried to bury Platner with the girlfriend article and instead handed him his best fundraising day in months.
Just an huge backfire on their end
@brithume Brit you ignorant slut, the legal pathway is simple. Step one, nationalize the team. Step two, convert them to soccer. Step three, forced veganism.
People are shocked by this but Carville worked with Bill Clinton out of all people. He knows how to dig deep and fight back against these types of attack
MSNOW’s Katy Tur said, “It used to be not too long ago that Democrats, if somebody was accused of behavior like this not too long ago at all, they’d be off the ballot or they’d be out of Congress. I mean, Democrats have ousted people from their own party for much, much less.” Journalist Alex Wagner nodded in agreement.
Democrats defended Bill Clinton and Joe Biden through multiple misconduct allegations, and the figures they did force out during the MeToo era often faced multiple accusers or corroborated claims. In Platner’s case, the most serious allegation is an uncorroborated allegation by a Republican operative that The New York Times said it could not independently verify, and which Platner categorically denies.
@trouble_man90 Show literally one ounce of proof that he voted for her "3 TIMES". He's admitted to it once and said he might have one other time.
Is counting fucking hard for you?
