Just keeping the record straight.


Hey aipac troll you are conflating things. His disabled categorization is a VA benefit term given his tours of service, and doesn’t necessarily imply he can’t or shouldn’t work or that he is now mentally disabled. He’s clearly quite smart and coherent and you just hate that he doesn’t support Israel


DP.
I don't care that he doesn't support Israel.
I do care that he donned a Nazi tattoo for 17 years. And, his claim that he was unaware of what it was.... totally unbelievable. You think a tattoo artist didn't inform him if there was any doubt?
I also care that he has not only downplayed sexual assault, but actually blames victims of sexual assault for being assaulted.

He is a complete phony.


Here you go again, aipac loser.
It was a skull and cross bones and he’s apologized for it.

You are such a desperate troll and willing to peddle lies and half truths.
it’s a totenkopf. Don’t you dare try to claim it’s a pirate ship flag


I find it 100% believable that a drunk 20-something soldier in a foreign country thinks the tattoo is “cool” looking & does not know / understand its meaning. If it were me, I’d probably have made an earlier effort to get it removed but I actually don’t know when he found out real meaning & when he had it covered. I’m so desperate to get rid of Collins & like enough of other things he’s saying that I’m willing to give him the benefit of the doubt.


He reportedly prides himself on his knowledge of history.

And you think a tattoo artist wouldn’t explain to him about his chosen art?

GTFOH.

DP. Didn’t he get the tattoo in Croatia? Would the artist even speak English?

I’m not a tattoo person (yuck) but is it standard for their to be white supremacist options to choose from when picking a tattoo?

DP. It's pretty clear *YOU* are the anti-AIPAC troll who won't shut up about it. Nowhere in the PP's post did AIPAC even come up - you just extrapolate from any poster who dares to say things you don't want to hear. Grow up and seek help.

GTFOH.


Why would a tattoo artist in Yugoslavia (or wherever he was) necessarily speak English and explain a tattoo unless asked? Give me a break


Exactly. Drunk 19 yo American gets a tattoo in a Croatian shop 19 yrs ago, I 100% believe he didn’t know what it was at the time and probably didn’t think a whole lot about it for years. I do wish he had gotten in front of the stupid stuff he did/posted online though before his campaign got into full swing. The way things have come out in a drip drip fashion worries me that he’s not ready for prime time despite what seem like some good political instincts. I’ll vote for him, I despise Collins, but tbh I wish we had a better choice


He didn’t just fail to get in front of the awful crap from his past, he engaged in a concerted effort to try to erase all his ugly Internet posting history apparently too stupid to know that once it’s out there it’s out there forever. Less than a year ago he engaged in an intentional plan to deceive the electorate of Maine about who he was - who is obviously still is - and he didn’t come clean until he was caught out red handed by folks with better internet skills than he has. Then he issued self serving apologies without offering any plausible explanation for his ugly comments which reveal ugly attitudes that he held well into adulthood with a fully developed frontal lobe. He engaged in a further disgusting path of behavior by trying to blame his misogyny and bigotry on PTSD, which doesn’t cause any of that. He stated in the past and he still clearly thinks that rural Mainers are all stupid and racist, and he’s engaging in a performative act to get over on the electorate. His character is profoundly deficient and he is not fit to serve in the Senate. I’m a liberal who deeply dislikes Collins but I hope Platner implodes in the general election cycle. I hope all his vile skeletons come bobbing to the surface and bury him.


And then what? Who would you have be our second senator?

Most of us in Maine are over talking about the tattoo. It’s people from away who can’t seem to drop it.


I am not in Maine and I am over it too.


Well, I mean, of course both of you would say you're "over it." If this guy was a Republican, you most certainly would not be "over it"; in fact, you'd be outraged every single day.

One of the things that bothers me the most about Platner is that he’s cosplaying working class. Dude went to Hotchkiss. His dad was a lawyer and his mom owned a restaurant.


Exactly. He's not "working class." But I guess it makes people like the PP feel virtuous to pretend otherwise.

Oh look AIPAC in action. Look like it is time for AIPAC and its billionaires to unleash on the democrats to “save” Israel.

AIPAC and Israel’s constant war on democrats and America is why Trump won. Remember how they stabbed Biden in the back?



NP. What is with this poster ^^^ and their CONSTANT rants about AIPAC?

I’m a PoliSci degree holder and an attorney with a JD from Georgetown, where I attended during the late 90s and the height of the Gingrich Congress’s attacks on Clinton re: the Lewinsky scandal and anything else they could dig up to justify persecuting him and his much loathed First Lady. My earliest memories of childhood involve watching the Watergte hearings with my then SAHM; 27 years later I studied criminal law at GULC with the same Sam Dash I watched in those hearings as a very young child.

I say all this just to share that I’m a lifelong keen observer of American politics and all the roller coaster that entails. I’ve been fascinated by the rise of the MAGA cult - disheartened and disappointed, but nonetheless fascinated by all it revealed about the American electorate.

As someone who lived nearly two decades in Maine - including seven years at Orono earning three degrees, and several years living on the downeast coast the next town over from where Graham Platner calls home - I’ve been especially fascinated to see the rise of Platner and his own cult of personality over the last several months. It’s interesting to see how very like the rise of Trump and MAGA it all is, how very similar the way the Platner supporters deflect criticism and defend their candidate and his inexperience and ugly personal history.

I sense a FAFO coming for the cult of Platner supporters. I suspect there will be October reveals like the ‘grab ‘em by the meow’ but I don’t think Pig Platner will overcome them the way MAGA daddy did. We’ll see.
