Graham Platner has traversed a long and unlikely road to become the Democratic nominee for the US Senate in Maine. Can he beat longtime GOP incumbent Susan Collins and live up to the promise of his firebrand populist campaign?
Genuinely hope I’m wrong about him, but it’s frustrating that Maine couldn’t find a candidate without a Nazi tattoo. Or one that doesn’t go on Nazi podcasts and call themselves long time fans. Or one that didn’t enlist in a war they thought was wrong because they wanted to kill people. Or one that didn’t merc for Blackwater.
I get that one can’t pick their family, but his blue blood parents trying to buy him a mayorship is also wild.
Sad to think that the economy has gotten so bad that his parents who both worked normal ass professional jobs are considered blue bloods now. Back in my day we called that middle class.
Interesting how many billionaires are pouring cash into spreading any and all kinds of bullshit about this guy. The more they spend the better I feel about him.
You realize those are the choices though? You can depress turn out for blue candidates with your comments and help reelect the senator who put Brett Kavanaugh on the Supreme Court, or you can try to help not do that. With our electoral system, it is a binary choice.
Uh hold on… I was under the impression that this so-called “Blue MAGA” were against Platner? I was called “blue MAGA” for daring to question the guy with the Nazi tattoo.
Now the person criticizing the person who criticized Platner is also “blue MAGA”?
Criticizing Platner is not blue maga. Blue maga is literally people saying “We have to vote Democrats to make America great again and if we don’t fall in line and eat the shit the Democrats serve us then you’re just as bad a Trump”
Eh he’s a white guy. Doesn’t matter what his past is, he gets to apologize and move on. Not like they have other examples of populist leftists in multiple other elections across the country. No, it’s this white ex-mercenary who had to remove a totenkopf tattoo.

Have you considered making a donation to Susan Collins?
Don’t be MAGA-brained. Politicians with a D after their name can still be criticized.

Don’t try to reason with blue maga

Almost as if it’s a meaningless term
It is a meaningless term. But ml is a lost cause.

No this guy is the face of populism…
