Are we really to believe suddenly republicans and other supposed democrats are so concerned about women’s rights that they are going to take a guy who served his country down for being ‘mean’ to one ex girlfriend years ago (who just happens to be a Republican operative). Versus a woman who voted to strip women of their reproductive rights ??

They tried the Nazi card.
They tried the fake trust fund card

Didn’t work. So this is their next attempt.

It is so very very obvious.

And what’s scary to me is it’s not just Republicans trying to take him down. It’s Democrats too. The NYT runs a story about this guy every other day now, recycling the same old story from the ex gf.

There is no need to further debate his ‘abuse’. It’s exaggerated nonsense and it does not matter.

More proof that those causes they champion are not sincerely held positions or things they actually believe, but causes to support when politically expedient.

As for Pig Platner, all you have to do is read the NYT article, among others. All the allegations have been discussed widely here already. He referred to women as "hatchet wounds." He said that he would rape anyone who dared to break into his home. RAPE them.

No, they actually haven’t. There are a lot of people who are super worked up making a lot of claims. I haven’t read anywhere (except on here) a legitimate allegation of “abuse” by “women” (plural). So, where are all these allegations except in your mind?

You can't be serious. We have pages and pages of direct quotes from the NYT article, detailing the allegations. If you can't be bothered to follow along, I can't help you. Please stop pretending you "haven't read anywhere" what those allegations are. I've even given you the links (again).

Yeah I looked at your links. It’s the same story by the same woman with an axe to grind & no evidence of abuse except for her word against his.

So, exactly like CBF - who you know doubt believed 100%? You are so transparently hypocritical.

Um, it was not just CBF.

I feel like I’m in an alternate universe. But 10 yrs ago I would have laughed if you told me Donald Trump would win two terms of Presidency as a conservative republican. Strange times we are in.

Genuine question. Who has alleged abuse? I have read if one woman how said he held her should tightly. Is that the one?
What women allege abuse? The Zionist heritage foundation staffer?

That you think this is a reason to disbelieve Platner's ex-girlfriend simply reflects on you. "Believe all women," my a$$.

There is, to my knowledge, one woman who alleged abuse. Twisting her arm and yanking her out of a taxi. Is that what you’re referring to?

DP. Compare this accusation to more extensive gaccusations against congressman Max Miller, Ohio 7, where my MAGA relatives live, who wete accusations by two former partners:

- From ex-girlfriend Stephanie Grisham (2021): She accused Miller of physical and mental abuse. Miller denied the claims, sued her for defamation (to counter her memoir promotion), and later voluntarily dismissed the suit.t
- From ex-wife Emily Moreno (2025–2026): In their contentious divorce and custody battle (divorce finalized around late 2025), Moreno accused Miller of physical abuse, including throwing scalding/hot water at her (in front of their child) and holding a gun to her. She has shared photos of alleged injuries. Miller denies all allegations, calls them false/manipulative, and attributes issues to her mental health (which she denies). Police videos and reports have surfaced, but no charges against Miller have resulted from these claims.

Max Miller is up for reelection. It’s OK for him to continue seeking public office but not for Platner?

No, you don’t get it.

Hating women is Republicans’ whole thing. But democrats are supposed to LIKE women and have every candidate be Barack Obama or lose.

Democrats are supposed to consistently lose, basically.

Yeah it’s not a coincidence but a product of the aforementioned strange times.

What are Platner’s “personal ties to Israel” that you mentioned?

Pp is just trying to confuse the issues.

We all know what platners greatest sins are. And they’re not an old tattoo or mean behavior with one girlfriend

Unless you live in Maine your opinion of him is moot and, obviously, the electorate voted overwhelmingly for him.

I don’t disagree and fwiw I would have happily voted for him if I lived in Maine. I don’t. But I find the attacks on him very troubling, including those from my hometown newspaper that sees fit to publishing a scathing piece on him almost every day for the last several weeks. You’d think he was more important than the president himself.

DP. I'm quite sure that you'd be applauding your hometown newspaper on their scathing pieces if Platner was a Republican.

Democrats finally learned how to play the Republican game: it’s better to win than to be morally perfect.

Republicans once again angry that someone is punching back.

No - Republicans are angry that people like you have spent a decade condemning people who did exactly what you're currently doing. We are pointing out your gross hypocrisy, but you seem not to get it.

Time to take your medicine. Open your mouths….

The allegations are all from one woman. Singular. Not women.

No, several other women said he was insulting, volatile or unfaithful. "Reckless and unsettling" were other adjectives these women used to describe him. You can keep playing dumb (or maybe you actually are), but these allegations were from more than just one woman.

https://apnews.com/article/senate-election-graham-platner-susan-collins-a07b35d03ee1acc419471c048572b065

So at least we can agree that abuse allegations are not coming from multiple women. 2 others (of the 6 total) complained about him being “reckless and unsettling”; while 3 said he was a decent boyfriend. Soooooo, he’s not an abuser of women.

Insulting, volitile and unfaithful describes a whole lot of men.
