...won the primary with 70% of the vote and led Collins in every single poll leading up to Election Day -- but still lost.

But while we're here, honest request: does anyone have any links to Platner's support of Hillary/Biden/Kamala and/or attacking Trump/MAGA by name?

Regarding Harris versus Trump, did he ever say which one he voted for?

I can't find any proof as to what you stated.

It was in a CBS interview.

he is looking to run against her. Makes sense.

NT

MTG (stopped being loved by) stopped loving Trump.

Massie stopped loving Trump.

Want to talk about Comey?

People are allowed to change and grow.

Jacobin did an article about their analysis of his entire decades long Reddit posts - they read every one. And he does express his Anti Trump and anti Trumpian admin and anti fascist and anti authoritarian stuff.

A few examples

Has nothing to do with the tattoo or the posts.

Did he vote for Clinton, Biden, Harris.


Or... are those straws you're reaching for

Is that a problem?

Fetterman is a member of the Democratic caucus. He is better than Susan Collins.

Nothing about Platner suggests he will be another Fetterman. Fetterman seems to hate Platner's schtick.

I look forward to 36 hours from today when we will all be preaching the same anti-Collins hymn.

At this point it's debatable if he is better than Susan Collins, because she hasn't done that.

This isn't up for debate Lisa.

Fetterman votes for Schumer, Collins does not.

This isn't a complicated equation.

Fetterman, the worst Democrat, is better than any Republican.

Even Republicans like Merrick Garland and James Comey.

But she hasn't called Platner "tacky and gross" as Fetterman had.

numbers.

why he voted for Trump and he understands why people voted for Bernie. It sounds like he's an Independent who is using our party again. I haven't seen anything close to what you are seeking, and I've been wondering the same things myself.

Wow.

If Janet Mills did that, she'd need a 3 month vacation.

I want a coalition builder.

I want Susan Collins to go down in flames.

I want Platner to win Democrats, Independents, and Republicans.

I want his election to be a repudiation of money in politics and institutionalism.

I, too, want a ""fighter"" -- one that knows when to fight.

Meanwhile, you disparage Janet Mills, someone who has won many and who has an actual history of fighting for Democratic values.

I supported her until she failed to demonstrate the ability to win the primary.

She did not put in effort. If you dispute this, cool. We'll disagree (again).

Platner is, however, doing the leg work and fighting. And I suspect he is going to win.

And yeah, that is hope and vapors. Yeah, it is optimism. But it is because if you listen to him talk he is saying the right words to get me fired up.

I'll submit one word: filibuster.



Edit: He sure is winning the primary.

few examples

Apparently I'm a part of "bro culture" now.

Cheers.

It hurt my feelings.

I thought DU was a welcoming environment for Democrats that, ya know, support Democrats.

And now I'm here (more) ashamed of my anatomy.

I thought I've been completely reasonable this whole time what with supporting Mills and then Platner, but it turns out I was thinking with my cis het dick the whole time.

Whos on Rogan?

Edit: Just admit you'd prefer Collins to Platner.

Just admit it. It'll be freeing for you.

Unless something drastic happens he's our nominee. I support Democrats against Republicans period. I wish Platner luck in the general.

We're going to win this time.

We are going to humiliate Susan Collins.
