@politico I'd have to wonder if the reason Maine voters would not be walking away from Platner is because they are 1) fed up with GOP's Collins and 2) Because Dems only offered up Mills and not real candiates who would actually run a campaign as well as be an opponent of the Dem status quo
@nathanTbernard Not a Maine resident but even if i didn't like Platner, which i do, i would no way in hell vote for someone who avoided is NOT the incumbent, and avoided all public appearances, discussions & normal campaign activities relying on the good ol' Party network to win the primary?
@TheTNHoller I've already moved my general news info to AP and Spectrum news, as well as the Canadian News Press and CBC News (also Canadian). Occasional dips into Reuters, BBC, and The Guardian.
@BCLegalScholar@RoKhanna@paulmitche11 Pay no attention to this person. They will NOT be satisfied by anything other than MAGA wins, everything else is "rigged".
@RoKhanna All true Rep Khanna, but here's the reality. The way or time it takes for Calif to count votes is not the problem MAGA has with our process.
It's that we count them at all because they only time they complain is when they lose.
@RadioFreeTom Yes i could have. That's probably good advice to go around. Sometimes we should listen more and talk less 'eh?
Years ago i did a couple of "Stand Down" events for homeless vets. Just slinged food for them, but the experience stuck with me. Recovery deserves respect too.
@RightWingWatch The only people distorting the Bible are Christians which is fine since it was\has been written & edited by males to maintain political & social power ever since Rome co-opted Christianity in the 3rd Century AD
@DOWResponse Who the hell is "DOWResponse"? We don't have a "Dept of War" we have Department of Defense. Real truth here isHegseth & company said out loud what the MAGA/Trump agenda is regarding religions. THEY get to decide who is what and who will not fit into their "christian" Nationalism
@DrNeilStone@grahamformaine Had a tattoo. I never served & i'm guessing you haven't either. Platner's not the 1st or last servicemember to get stupid tattoos.
What matters is what it he is today. What matters is if he motivates people to accept his contrition and rehabilitation...and then vote for him.
@DavidAFrench How wrong can possibly be? It's EVERYTHING to do with theology. Do you seriously believe only OTHER religions fight bloodily between each other?
Like other slip-ups, Hegseth said it out loud, no religions but his kind. Mormons should know better, they've been there before.
