Voter bamboozled by slick politician. More news at 10.
Except he isn't a politician, but Susan is.
He is now.
A year or so as an oyster man who sells all his oysters to his mom's restaurant.
Went to very expensive prep school,
Said he got a VA loan. Maybe he did, but he didn't use it. Dad "loaned" him the money.
Gets VA disability. Some reports say 100% disability (not common.)
Nazi tatoo. Claims he didn't know it was a Nazi tatoo but also claims to be a history buff. Reportedly, could not rejoin the Marines because of the tatoo.
Sexting other women within the last couple of years while newly married. Even goes on a website known to be used also by minors.
Wrote on social media that he joined the Marines in order to kill people.
Meanwhile, says that Collins voted to send him to war (even though the war began two years before he enlisted.)
Said very ugly things about other soldiers.
Troubled relationship with women.
Says he was saved by grade---even though some of the sexting appears to be quite recent. And, lots of recent lies.
Great politician! Convinced people to vote for him. What more could you ask for?
Your first statement is a KellyAnne Conway lie, but even if true, so what if he sells to his mother's restaurant? If you had a family business, you would be want to keep as much in the family as possible. First, he began working on the water as a shellfisherman in 2018, not 2025 as you erroneously stated. And second, according to Google, he sells to restaurants other than his mother's. Maine Senate candidate and oysterman Graham Platner sells his oysters locally rather than shipping them out. His primary customer is the Ironbound Restaurant and Inn in Hancock, Maine, which is owned by his mother. He has also occasionally supplied a few other select Downeast Maine retailers, including traveling raw bars like Jolie Rogers Raw Bar and the Frenchman Bay Oyster Company itself. Information courtesy of a quick Google search.
He attended a prep school for one semester. Why do you keep harping on that, it makes absolutely no sense. You make is sound like a crime to send your kid to a good school, which is utterly weird coming from a DCUM crowd.
Again, he did four combat tours of duty in war-torn areas, three in Iraq and one in Afghanistan, and you begrudge the fact that he obtained a VA loan, or do you begrudge that his father was able to loan him money for a home? WTF are you people?
The Nazi tattoo is discerning, but I bet if you showed that tattoo to 100 people, 80-90% would think it is just another rendition of skull and bones. What do you mean he could not rejoin the Marines? He did 4 combat tours, so obviously, they kept sending him back out to be cannon fodder to die. He spent four years in the Marines from 2003-2007, and an additional four years, 2009-2012, in the Maryland National Guard, where he was deployed to Afghanistan.
I don't care about his sexting, that's between him and his wife. Isn't that what Republicans have been saying for decades about their candidates infidelity issues? I have not read or heard anything about him engaging with minors, but based on the other falsehoods you've posted, I'm skeptical. What do you think about the 13-year-old who gave a deposition accusing Trump of raping her? Or the new Epstein files that just revealed that Trump knew that Epstein was using Maralago as sexual trafficking?
Unfortunately, I think the vast majority of enlisted Marines have a kill fetish. That's why the Marines love them.
Collins voted to send young, stupid, gung-ho, ready to fight and kill boys to war. Where's the lie?
Said very bad things about other soldiers. The POTUS told a grieving wife that her husband knew what he signed up for. He told a Gold Star father that military people were losers and suckers. He told John McCain that he did not like soldiers who got captured. They were losers.
He is not a politician by trade or nature. He has made too many mistakes to be a politician. Give him a couple of election cycles, and he will be polished and FOS just like all the rest.
