Egbewole: Platner is cosplaying working class. He wears it as a Halloween costume. That has been placed on him by the same people who have run a lot of Progressive candidates across the nation

Parnas: A lot of people are saying this idea that, well, Graham Platner hasn’t won statewide, and Janet Mills has. Platner: We have a number of excellent senators who had never run for office or won a statewide race before. I think of Raphael Warnock — nobody’s sitting around today saying, “Oh, he has no right to be in the United States Senate; he’d never won statewide before.” Honestly, I think that’s an argument the establishment makes to protect itself, because of course people who aren’t from the establishment have to come from outside of it — that’s the whole point. And right now, as I go around the state of Maine, we’re turning people out in the hundreds and sometimes thousands at town halls and rallies. People don’t want establishment candidates. They don’t want the status quo. They don’t want candidates who’ve been in office for ages and are part of the same political structure everyone’s fed up with. That’s not where the energy is. People want something new. And I’ll be honest — if we’re going to beat Susan Collins, we can’t run the same playbook we’ve run in the past. We can’t go with establishment politicians chosen by Washington, D.C., running campaigns run by D.C. consultants — by the same political-industrial complex. That’s not what’s going to win. We need something new. We need people who come from the working people of Maine, who are of the working people of Maine, and who are pushing policies that clearly represent and improve the lives of the working people of Maine.

Sanders: What we have here, and it’s a real issue, is that if you’re progressive, you can go out there and give a great speech, fine. You’re saying all the right things. You’re right on the issues. Great. Can you run a government? Can you be a good mayor? Can you be a good governor? All right. And what Mamdani is doing is showing that you can have a democratic socialist, progressive ideology and run a city. You know what? New York City had really serious snowstorms. It meant that people couldn’t get to work, kids couldn’t get to school, ambulances couldn’t get people to the hospital. You know what he did? He got the bloody snow off the ground and did a great job on that. People in New York City desperately need childcare, as they do in Vermont, as they do all over the country. He is now instituting free childcare for the people of New York City. That is really good. Working-class people need to buy affordable, decent-quality food for their kids. He’s starting to put grocery stores—municipally funded grocery stores—in low-income and working-class areas. That’s good. So the point is, we have got to have progressives who are not only right on the issues—and I speak as somebody who was a mayor for eight years—you’ve got to know how to run a government. You’ve got to cut through the bureaucracy. You’ve got to stand up for working-class people. You’ve got to create the best educational system in the world that we can. You’ve got to make the system work efficiently.
