MSM/Corporate Media are doing a massive smear campaign on him because he’s railing against the Iran war and against Israel’s incursions.
What is infuriating about Platner isn’t that his rhetoric is bad or that his totenkomf is “fake news” or whatever. It’s that it really is just Platner or actual fascists.
In a better world, Platner would not be a viable candidate, because he’d be running against a dozen Zohran Mamdani’s. In this world, it’s Platner versus The Genocide Machine.
And I’m not going to vote for the Genocide Machine. I’m still disgusted that a Shoot-And-Cry Iraq Vet is the best we can do.
I’ve seen people talk about the only option being Platner for months now. Isn’t the primary like, today? A lot of people have seemed hellbent on absolutely not supporting anyone but Platner, and absolutely not supporting any “Mamdani” to go up against him.
Yeah, but Janet Mills dropped out in April. She was the only significant contender against Platner for the nomination.

Mills is currently the most unpopular Governor in the country, with a 29% approval rating (worse than Trump). I don’t think it’s quite so much hellbent on Platner as it is hellbent on not electing another Schumercrat. The only other candidate on the ballot - David Costello - has no budget or constituency. He spent the bulk of his career in Maryland, doing work as a mid-level staffer for the governor.
Exactly fucker brag about going to Iraq to murder people. Sucks that the best the DNC can put forward. That’s my problem glad I don’t have to make that vote.
Sick and tired of holding my nose to vote for a lesser evil.
The DNC didn’t put Platner up. Schumer backed Janet Mills, a wildly unpopular governor already pushing 80. Platner drubbed her in the primary precisely because she was such a wet fart of a candidate.

Genuinely infuriating. But I’m enjoying the “Vote Blue No Matter Who” crowd go into convulsions over whether or not they want to sink this guy or sink their chances at taking the Senate.
deputy media consultant for John #Fetterman 's 2022 Senate election campaign, and later worked for Dan Osborn’s campaign in the 2024 Senate election in Nebraska. He is a close adviser of #Mamdani and Graham #Platner.
Well I no longer a registered Democrat so I can even vote in their primary anymore. Regardless DNC put up two shit candidates. This guy just other Fetterman and no progressive hero. His past actions show who he really is.
Any way I am in Oklahoma lets see how it plays out. He probably will win at least Colin got to go. But I won’t get excited not until we see how he vote once he is in office.
Fetterman is deep in the tank for Israel. If anything, Platner is the opposite of Fetterman. Genuinely curious to see what happens in a Senate where they’re both sharing a committee assignment.

Not the DNC but Morris Katz, the leader of Democrat consultancy firm Fight Agency.

The DNC opposed him, and still does.
No they do not, Chuck Schumer recently endorsed him.
