"It's completely irredeemable." Hasan clarifies his stance on Platner before the recent allegations dropped. Prior to today, he had always maintained that Platner was the better option when compared to Collins and Mills wrt his progressivism, but obviously in light of everything that has dropped today, none of those... show more

@cantwontshutup There's a few creators just lumping him and others in as "The Platner left" to try and dismiss any analysis of Platner's campaign as endorsement for the more reactionary crowd. Unfortunately Id be surprised if any of these people bother looking back to confirm he hasn't.

He literally said "I'm team Platner" and was banning people for criticizing Platner. But I'm sure he never actually supposed him. Honestly it makes it even worse to now lie about your support of Platner.

"We are suspending campaign operations." A visibly emotional Graham Platner announced the end of his Senate campaign after multiple sexual misconduct allegations, including a rape accusation, torpedoed his bid. Platner claimed that suspending the campaign was not an admission of guilt, instead arguing the decision was driven by "the structures that are being taken away from us by those in power." Platner continues to deny the allegations, previously calling them "troubling, serious and false."

HASAN explains why Troy Jackson is the best replacement for Platner. He feels that if the Democrats put forward an establishment Dem, they will lose the Senate. Troy Jackson is the only option right now. Graham Platner was defying the polls and the establishment pick of Janet Mills AFTER the first round of red flags and allegations. A progressive like Jackson is needed to combat Collins.

Hasan said he was in contact with Graham Platner & that he was supposed to go to Maine to campaign with him, but Charlie Kirk had just been killed so Hasan didn't want to do any public appearances for a while. Tyler Robinson is the only reason Hasan didn't campaign with Platner.

CNN’s Abby Phillip brings the receipts about how Democrats from Bernie Sanders to Elizabeth Warren to Ruben Gallego to Ro Khanna all stood by Nazi rapist Graham Platner through prior misconduct revelations and his Nazi tattoo on his chest. They even called Platner "authentic" and "my kind of man." Phillip: “In the wake of new rape allegations that he categorically denies, Graham Platner still hasn't made an official decision, but he has lost support from virtually every prominent Democrat who initially backed him. Senators Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren, Chuck Schumer, Kirsten Gillibrand, Ro Khanna, they are all now calling for Platner to withdraw from the selection after sticking with him through previous sexual misconduct allegations, and reports that he had a Nazi Tattoo on his chest.” Phillip adds, “The New York Times reports that in a private call with campaign staff, Platner said that he believes he still has leverage to influence the decision on his replacement.”

Tuesday's 'Today' marked only the second time a morning or evening NBC newscast mentioned Graham Platner since last week's The New York Times article about Lyndsey Fifield. Talk about vague when explaining it away: “But Platner has weathered a series of scandals, including the most recent recently where three different women accused him of being toxic and unsettling during their relationships. Now, NBC News has not been able to verify The New York Times reporting on this story, but Platner has said that the accusations are politically motivated and in some cases, not true. Now, Platner also acknowledging that he was forced to cover up a tattoo that some say resembles a Nazi symbol. He said he got that tattoo while he was in the Marines and didn’t know the significance at the time.”

NEW: Bernie Sanders endorsed Senate candidate Graham Platner of Maine, says him getting a tattoo that resembles a Nazi symbol was a total accident. In the new video, Platner showed off his new cover-up tattoo of dogs that he got last night. Platner, who said he was a communist in now-deleted Reddit posts, says he is being targeted by the establishment. "It's come to my attention that it has a stark resemblance to a symbol that is used by neo-Nazis and I want to say that was not the intent at all." "And the idea that I've been going around with something like that utterly horrifies me." "This has come up because the establishment is trying to throw everything it can at me. It is terrified of what we are trying to build here."

On PBS, MS NOW host Jonathan Capehart does a 180 on Graham Platner and throws him overboard, "They [Democrats] need to get a nominee who can best go up against Susan Collins. Now, with Graham Platner finally out of the race—I was happy to see that he submitted the papers to fully get out of the race this afternoon. That is the first step that needed to happen." A month ago, Capehart said Trump changed the standard for politicians' moral life and that the fact people like Platner meant suggested he should stay.

Senators Elizabeth Warren, Bernie Sanders, Chuck Schumer, and others continue to support Democratic senatorial candidate Graham Platner, despite comments he made that offended feminist Democrats and an accusation of violence by a former girlfriend. “Look, he has apologized for that,” said Warren, referring to Platner’s comments on social media in 2013. In response to a Reddit post titled “shorts that prevent you from being raped,” Platner had written, “how about people just take some responsibility for themselves and not get so f----ed up they wind up having sex with someone they don’t mean to?” At the same time, all four Senators refused to confirm Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court after a woman alleged that he had tried to sexually assault her while they were in high school. Warren opposed the nomination, citing “credible allegations” of sexual assault. “I listened to Dr. Ford, and I listened to Judge Kavanaugh,” said Sanders. “I believe Dr. Ford.” Said Schumer, “For too long, when women have made serious allegations of abuse, they have been ignored. That cannot happen in this case.” And yet that’s precisely what Schumer has done in the case of Platner. Some may object that the charge against Kavanaugh was more serious, but it was no more credible than the ones against Platner. An ex-girlfriend, Lindsey Fifield, said Platner “regularly grabbed her by the shoulders,” reported the New York Times, “sometimes hard enough to leave marks — and, on one occasion, yanked her out of a cab by her wrist after an argument when she wanted to stay in the car. During one argument, she recalled, he twisted her arm behind her back, shoved her into a bedroom and held the door closed from the other side so she couldn’t get out, telling her to remain there until she was ‘calm.’” Fitfield’s accusation is difficult, if not impossible, to prove, and the same can be said of Ford’s. None of the individuals whom Ford said were at the party, including her lifelong friends, corroborated her account, and one told the Senate she had no memory of it. And a different man told Senate investigators that he was the man who assaulted Ford, not Kavanaugh. Moreover, there is evidence of Platner misrepresenting the truth. For example, he denied he had a serious relationship with his accuser, but the Times’ reporters said they saw a text he sent her in 2016, which read, “Lyndsey, I love you in a way I can’t even describe. “You are literally everything to me.” Platner denied knowing that a tattoo on his chest was the symbol of a Nazi death squad, but last August, “months before Mr. Platner acknowledged the tattoo himself,” noted the Times, “Ms. Fifield told friends that her ex-boyfriend-turned-Senate candidate ‘has a Nazi tattoo on his chest.’ ‘It’s a Totenkopf,’ she told them on Aug. 20, according to a screenshot she shared with The Times. ‘An actual one.’” And Platner said he was treated in 2016 for PTSD, one of whose symptoms is uncontrolled anger and “hyperarousal and reactivity,” which is the feeling of being constantly on the lookout for danger. Platner’s campaign team did not deny Fitfield’s accusation that he fantasized about someone breaking into his home so he could rape them. “Asked about those remarks, a Platner campaign official did not dispute them,” noted the Times. For years, Democrats have accused their political opponents, particularly Donald Trump, of being Nazis, rapists, or soft on Nazis and violence against women. And yet here Democrats are supporting a person facing credible accusations of being sympathetic to Nazism, and accusations of violence that are no less credible than the ones Sanders, Warren, Schumer, and others made against Kavanaugh. While one interpretation of the remarks and positions taken by Sanders, Warren, and Schumer toward Platner is that they are hypocrites putting ends-justify-the-means politics before principles. At the same time, the difference in reactions to Franken and Platner shows that accusations of sexual harassment have less salience today than in 2017. Back then, Senate Democrats did not defend Democratic Senator Al Franken after he was accused of sexual harassment, even though some progressives later said the evidence for it was weak, as they have done with Platner. Meanwhile, the accusations against Platner do not appear to have changed the minds of many Democrats on social media nor among many voters in Maine. And even a Republican strategist told Jesse Watters on Friday that the allegations were unlikely to change the minds of many swing voters. What changed?
