Democrats and the Media Must Not be Allowed to Forget Their Ongoing Defense of Platner
“We will never let you forget that a Nazi tattoo wasn’t enough to disqualify him.”
Now that Graham Platner of Maine has suspended (ended) his Senate campaign, Democrats and the media are going to try to ‘move on’ and forget that any of this ever happened. They must not be allowed to do that.
They repeatedly defended a candidate who had an actual Nazi tattoo, who denigrated women, black people, gay people, and was credibly accused of sexual assault and rape.
It was only when they thought he couldn’t win the race that they finally threw him under the bus. Prior to that, they stood by him after each stunning turn in the race.
Do not let them forget any of this.
SUPERCUT!

They’re all trying to play dumb now.
Axios: “Starting with their launch video last August, Platner and his team billed him as an oyster farmer — a title most of themedia, including Axios at times, repeated without scrutiny.
But as early as August, he told ideologically friendly outlets that he makes little money…

Worth noting that conservative outlets like the Free Beacon exposed his sham blue collar image long ago. Those facts were largely ignored by legacy media. Now that’s changed. A cynic might say it’s because he’s now seen as a threat to their partisan tribe’s power quest. https://t.co/7h7Xf48mhI

Platner and his team pitched him as a "working-class Mainer" who bought his house with veterans' benefits.
In fact, Platner's father — a lawyer — loaned him $200,000 for the home. pic.twitter.com/VrYcfE1PEs

It’s the Biden 2024 playbook. We were duped!
It's the exact same card they played with Biden. https://t.co/q383jUWzlG

John Nolte of Breitbart News is exactly right here.
Dear Democrats and corporate media:
We will never let you forget that a Nazi tattoo wasn’t enough to disqualify him.
Never.

They ahve already forgotten their defense of Joe Biden; also a sexual predator w/ credible assualt allegations against him. But of course in this case they lied baout his cognitive functioning and ignored his sexual behavior. They also ahve never disavowed Bill Clinton even though he is biggest “Epstein class” they keep claiming they are fighting against in Trump.
“Forget”? The demonrats have no memory of history, no sense of morals, and no regard for justice. What they have is an obsession with power, carnal desire, perversion, money, and for control.
Just like they gushed over President Avenatti.
One of his early producers (not the guy with the strange voice) apparently saw Platner as a potential presidential candidate in 2028, assuming victory. Can’t help but thinking about Hitler. Some nothing of a person turned loose. Of course, USA is not Germany. People here fight. The standard of living is good. There is a large measure of freedom. But still could not help but imagining. It would destroy the name Graham for generations.
Damn straight.
Don’t forget the entertainers and influencers that gushed over him. Never let them forget or live it down. Always mention it. Especially when they starting in with is hitler or a nazi or a fascist.
They are just accusations. Brett Kavanaugh dealt with similar struggle sessions.
But Platner is a Nazi so I guess he’s just lucky he has to drop out instead of pay the price for his poor allegiance to a dead ideology
The rape accusations are indeed only accusations at this point. The Nazi tattoo, espousal of hardcore communist doctrine, libeling of fellow servicemen, and blackout drunkenness are documented and apparently not enough to disqualify him from serving in the “World’s Greatest Deliberative Body” according to Democrat standards. Pardon me while I puke.
I can’t imagine why the above comment was not posted for almost 24 hours after I submitted it??!!??!
Homeboy sported a nazi SS totenkopf tattoo for nearly 20 years …right up until he was in an election campaign and it became inconvenient …only when it became a liability for his (and d/prog) quest for power did he he get it covered up …and the lapdog corporate media obediently narrated the script their d/prog masters handed them to downplay it as a ‘youthful mistake and who hasn’t made a youthful mistake?’ This alongside circled wagons from d/prog Elders refusing to condemn their candidate with a dang Nazi SS totenkopf tattoo with a fictionalized, embellished backstory and lots of known skeletons in his closet.
I’ve made youthful mistakes, but none rising to the level of getting a totenkopf tattoo put on my body.
Indeed and even if you did in your ‘youth’ it doesn’t explain the decision of keeping it for nearly two decades which was a mistake repeated every day since.
“Democrats and the media”
There’s a difference?
The dem defense- He’s a man of the people, but he’s also a man.
Sure, just like we never let them forget their defense of Joe Biden’s obvious dementia. And what value is that to us? So far, bupkis. The media will never pay any price for its lies, at least not before lead starts flying.
The ‘party of Democracy’ seems to throw their nominated people over board with ease now a days.
The first time is always the hardest. But it worked, so it becomes an essential tool in the toolbox.
The First cut is the deepest
Baby I know, first cut is the deepest
But when it comes to being lucky she’s cursed
And when it comes to loving me she’s worst
I’m having a mental image of the 150K d/prog in Maine who voted for this nut in their contested primary even after lots of revelations including the totenkopf tattoo singing this song as they figure out an acceptable replacement candidate.
Presstitutes will never change nor ever feel shame. To her credit, Bari Weiss is the only ones trying to change a horrid journalistic culture that is very likely irredeemable.
I will raise my glass every time one of these craven, moral-free scum loses their job.
The Democrats have gotten quite comfortable with the whole “choose for them” thing. Sounds sort of authoritarian, don’t you think ?
No Kings.
Massas are perfectly OK.
Somewhere, Elizabeth Warren is weeping.
Crying in her beer no doubt.
