Shermichael Singleton just singlehandedly destroyed the Democrats’ case for their embattled Senate candidate Graham Platner. All he had to do was call out the blatant double standard — and he did it right in the face of Democrat shill Ro Khanna. SINGLETON: “I find that a bit ironic.” “For... a long time now, Democrats have long argued that what fueled their passions against Trump was a sense of of righteous indignation.” “That they were standing up for justice, that they were upholding morality, that they said Trump was an affront to.” “And now what we all realize is that that was all a facade.” “You have this guy who’s saying he’s going to make a speech to draw a contrast against himself and Susan Collins.” “He stands up for women. She does not, because she voted for Brett Kavanaugh.” “Yet we just had not more than a week ago, very serious allegations against this very same guy who’s now the defender of women.” “So to me, it seems like maybe a defender of women for my Democratic friends, when it’s convenient for them.” “But now that there’s a political electoral opportunity to maintain their majority in the Senate, and Graham Platner could out seat Susan Collins, you know what?” “It doesn’t necessarily matter, the ten plus years of arguments we’ve made about morals and ethics against Trump and Republicans who’ve empowered Trump, because we can win a seat.” “It’s very machiavellian in many ways. And to me, any argument that Democrats have framed against Trump, against Republicans is now null and void.” “They have revealed themselves to be nothing but hypocrites, nothing but liars.” “And I think as we get into the general election, you’re going to see the case made by Susan Collins, made by the nrsc, that Democrats are not the people that they said that they are.” “Look at who they’re supporting, the guy with the Nazi tattoo.” Democrats have no moral authority left.

@MrShermichael He’s 100% right. Dems called Republicans Nazis for decades. Now they’ve nominated a guy who literally has a Nazi tattoo. Another example of the Dems being everything they accuse Republicans of being.

This is why Shermichael Singleton Singleton won the Media Research Center's Bulldog Award for Outstanding Achievement Behind Enemy Lines. Tonight on CNN, he calls out the left for supporting Graham Platner and proving themselves to be "nothing but hypocrites, nothing but liars": "I find that a bit ironic. For a long time now, Democrats have long argued that what fueled their passions against Trump was a sense of of righteous indignation. They were standing up for justice. They were upholding morality that they said Trump was an affront to. And now what we all realize is that that was all a facade. You have this guy who's saying he's going to make a speech to make a con- or draw a contrast against himself and Susan Collins. He stands up for women. She does not, because she voted for Brett Kavanaugh. Yet we just had not more than a week ago, very serious allegations against this very same guy who's now the defender of women? So to me, it seems like maybe a defender of women for my Democratic friends, when it's convenient for them. But now that there's a political electoral opportunity to maintain their majority in the Senate, and Graham Platner could [un]seat Susan Collins, you know what? It doesn't necessarily matter, the ten-plus years of arguments we've made about morals and ethics against Trump and Republicans who empower Trump, because we can win a seat. It's very Machiavellian in many ways. And to me, any argument that Democrats have framed against Trump, against Republicans is now null and void. They have revealed themselves to be nothing but hypocrites, nothing but liars. And I think as we get into the general election, you're going to see the case made by Susan Collins, made by the NRSC, that Democrats are not the people that they said that they are. Look at who they're supporting the guy with the Nazi tattoo.

Shermichael Singleton forces the CNN panel to adress the Democrat elephant in the room with their support of Graham Platner. He pointed out their TOTAL hypocrisy of attacking President Trump’s character while propping up a guy with such serious moral issues. SINGLETON: “I think Democrats have ceded whatever moral ground they once upon a time had.” “You can’t make a moral or ethical case against Trump or any other Republican and say, but Susan Collins is so terrible, we’re going to encourage voters in Maine to elect a guy who’s been alleged to have serious physical misconduct against women.” “Now, I’m a dad of a daughter.” “I can’t imagine excusing that type of behavior.” “Now, as a conservative, I’ve called out things on my side, as you know very well.” “And so for me, Congresswoman, I get the premise of your argument, but I just couldn’t in good conscience or faith, say, support some person with these serious allegations.” “You still have the governor...who voters could vote for.” Democrats have lost all moral authority.

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.

"Now, some of us have longer memories than others. So, dear regulars, who remembers when nobody apart from Trump as president in his first term was calling for justice against Epstein and all his clients? Who remembers when the Democrats, the very same Democrats who are now saying that Trump didn't want to release these files because he was supposedly implicated, who remembers when those same Democrats used to call a global VIP pedophile ring nothing but a conspiracy theory? And yet here we are now, interestingly, with all the people that used to call it a conspiracy theory, instead now saying: no longer is it not a conspiracy theory, it’s the worst case of global VIP pedophilia in history. And, they’re saying, it's all Trump's fault and they're and they're demanding the release of all the information. So, certainly got your interest now, haven't we? So perhaps the Democrats took the bait that President Trump laid for them all along. Point being, it doesn't make too much of a difference whether he did it on purpose or not, President Trump - by making the Democrats believe that he had something to hide - made them demand the release of the files. And then, of course, Trump was only happy to oblige." Maajid Nawaz, WARRIOR CREED.

While speaking to a massive crowd in Pennsylvania, President Trump called the Democrats’ 2026 midterm candidates communists. Trump went on to describe Maine Democrat United States Senate candidate Graham Platner Graham Platner for Senate: “How about the guy in Maine. He’s got the Nazi tattoo. For 10 years they said Trump is a Nazi. Now they can’t say that anymore because they have a guy with a Nazi tattoo on his chest.” Going off what Trump said, we have been asking many Senate Democrats about Graham Platner’s Nazi tattoo, which have resulted in some interesting responses, like Senator Mark Kelly Senator Mark Kelly’s fake phone call. The Senate Democrats are a dysfunctional disaster.

Well, that sounds like then we probably ought to have Democrats in charge of the US Senate so that we have the votes to stop this war and to hold Trump in check because it sounds like the Republicans won't do that. She will not stand up against Donald Trump.

WATCH: NBC's Kristen Welker addresses the Platner sexting scandal within the panel discussion at "Meet the Press". Fmr. Rep. Val Demings dismisses it all as she goes into her set piece, is absolutely COOKED by Stephen Hayes KRISTEN WELKER: Val, I want to ask you about another controversial candidate for Democrats. You talked about Maine, Graham Platner. I’m going to just read from my notes because I want to get it right. He’s faced a series of controversies, including past posts about sexual assault, a tattoo that resembled a Nazi symbol that he had covered up right before he ran, by the way, and now sexually explicit texts with other women despite being married. Does Graham Platner pose a headache for Democrats? VAL DEMINGS: Well, let me go back to Texas for just a moment. Cornyn was a beloved candidate beloved by Republicans in Washington and in Texas. I’m not sure that candidate flaws matter as much as they used to. Millions of dollars were spent to save Cornyn. Didn’t work. Paxton won by a landslide. But the bottom line is Platner, he’s a combat veteran, has served in multiple tours of duty, an oyster farmer. And I believe that sends a message to voters that he understands the working class, had to go to work every day. I think people are so worried about the future right now they’re going to look at, “Do I feel like this candidate is going to fight for me and what I care about?” If Maine believes that through all of the controversy, as we just saw with Paxton, Platner will win. STEPHEN HAYES: But this is where– this is where people, normal people watching this at home, are so frustrated with the level of toxic partisanship where we’ve got somebody who they have to defend. You’ve got Democrats who are defending Graham Platner, who are calling him a good and decent man, and arguing that the guy with the Nazi tattoo, “We really need him because he has to beat Susan Collins,” one of the most bipartisan members of Congress in the past couple decades, who voted to convict Donald Trump. “But it’s so important. We have to have Graham Platner. We have to have somebody who savaged military veterans, said that a military veteran who was being shot at deserved to die, who’s blamed rape victims for their own assaults.” And you’ve now got a Democratic Party rallying around somebody like that?

Reporter: What do you make of Republicans saying that Virginia— AOC: Wah wah wah. We have asked Republicans for 10 years to ban partisan gerrymandering. And for 10 years, Republicans have said no. Republicans have fought for partisan gerrymanders across the United States of America. And these are the rules that they have set. And so if the Republican Party wanted to start this, they did this in North Carolina. They drew out three Democratic members of Congress in North Carolina. They did it in Texas. What they’re just mad at is that they have been accustomed to a Democratic Party that rolls over, doesn’t fight, and takes everything sitting down. And what they’re mad at right now is that we are here in a new day. And we have been asking the Democratic Party to stand up and fight, and now they did—and now the Republican Party doesn’t like the fact that they are fighting against someone who actually will stand up for the American people. So if Republicans decide that they would like to revisit a ban on partisan gerrymandering, I welcome them. We have the bill right here to end this all today. But they don’t want to, because they like pursuing and continuing to enact an unfair electoral landscape. And so we have an obligation to defend ourselves.

Karoline Leavitt says President Trump exposed Democrats in real time, arguing their refusal to stand for victims showed a clear choice between common sense leadership and radical opposition: “President Trump set the Democrats up in a trap, and they fell right into it because they cannot help themselves. They truly stand on the side of the tens of millions of illegal aliens whom they allowed to pour into our nation’s open borders under the Biden administration. It was so despicable to be in that chamber and to watch as these Democrats really did show their true colors. But to your point, the president—it was a brilliant idea. It was his idea to put that into the speech, and it proved to be right because he wanted the American people to know that this is a choice between common sense and President Trump and Republicans, and crazy, radical Democrats who stand for nothing except being against Donald Trump.”

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?

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.

Jennifer Welch: “Trump endorsed Roy Moore, a pedophile, for Senate. For them to try to lecture us? Graham Platner, those accusations have legs, my empathy goes with the bravery of that woman for speaking out, and he has to drop out of the race. Period, full stop, end of story. We’re either fighting fascism or we’re not. We need to get somebody in here to beat Susan Collins who is yet another domestic terrorist, she has terrorized women. The accusations against Graham Platner are not disqualifying for Susan Collins. The exact same accusations were there against Kavanaugh”

Brett Meiselas: I want to remind you that one of the first things that the Democrats tried to do back in 2021, after President Biden took office, was they tried to pass the Freedom to Vote Act that banned partisan gerrymandering. It also required voter ID, something Republicans like to say Democrats are totally against. Guess what? Not a single Republican voted for the Freedom to Vote Act. That same thing happens on every issue Republicans try to pin on the Democrats. Case in point: the border. President Biden and Democrats worked with a conservative Republican senator, James Lankford. What did the Republicans do? They voted it down. They threw every name at Democrats in the book. Trump was attacking James Lankford for working with Democrats. Trump openly said that he wanted to go against that bill because it would help the Democrats. He didn't care about helping the country. He just wanted to make the border and make the situation as bad as possible to help with his election chances. We see Republicans cynically using all of these issues time and time again, rather than approaching them as, "How do we actually solve this issue?" They take it and they try to weaponize it, to use it against Democrats and use it to get themselves elected and entrench themselves with power. We see it every single time, on every single bill.

Joy Behar falsely claims Justice Kavanaugh "had accusations exactly like" Platner's against him. Sunny Hostin calls on her Democratic Party to find someone who speaks to Platner's voters because she insists Democrats can win the seat: JOY BEHAR: But at least the Democrats are dumping him. Whereas, Susan Collins was one of the major votes to put Kavanaugh on the Supreme Court and he also had allegations exactly like this. If I recall correctly. Am I wrong? SUNNY HOSTIN: Well, the allegations were a little bit different but they were of a sexual nature. BEHAR: Exactly. HOSTIN: And you have someone like Pete Hegseth who is actually in the cabinet who was accused of rape, and actually settled with that woman and paid her $50,000. But I will say this, you know, to Whoopi's point about the Maine voters will speak, they've interviewed a lot of Maine voters after he stepped down, and one Maine voter in particular said, 'Platner did show to establishment Democrats that this is exactly what Maine wants, these are the policies that we want. This is the messaging that we want.' And I think when you look at Platner's platform which was ban billionaires buying elections, universal healthcare, defend Medicare and Medicaid, protect Social Security, support unions, support public schools, support our veterans, no more pointless wars, and bring Gaza genocide to an end. If Maine is saying that's the type of candidate they want, those are the policies that they want, then I think the Democratic National Committee needs to listen to that and find, you know, some sort of contender that speaks to those voters. Because he could have won this race but for these -- I think the additional allegations that came forward that the voters did not know about. SARA HAINES: Yes. HOSTIN: But I think that this is a winnable race. I think Susan Collins is not good -- not a fair representation of the Maine voter right now, and I think the Democrats need to win this race.

President Trump has the opportunity to make a legacy-defining move in Los Angeles, California. Sure, elected Republicans have a very big, almost daunting job ahead of them to clean up our election system. Because right now it doesn't matter: -how good of a candidate we run -how bad of a candidate the Democrats run -if the Democrat candidate is corrupt or has a Nazi tattoo It doesn't matter because the Democrats have the election system in a chokehold. They have taken it away—they have stolen it from the people and it is now in their control. So the outcomes of these elections are, essentially, predetermined. Elected Republicans need to acknowledge the severity of what Democrats have done to our election system. Before they're going to be able to adequately address it and fix it, it's very clear that the Biden administration committed crimes against us, and we voted for Trump because we don't want these people to just get away with it. We want accountability. We want perp walks and jumpsuits. This stolen election in Los Angeles is actually a golden opportunity for the Trump administration to do what we didn't get to do after 2020 because Biden was in the White House—and it didn't happen under Attorney General Bondi, either—which is actually track this down, charge the people who committed crimes, convict them, and put them in jail. And then, use that as the impetus to change the laws to take back our elections from the Democrats who've stolen them from us. Spencer Pratt seems to understand this, and I'm very appreciative of that. This is Trump's opportunity to re-energize the base and give us what we voted for: justice. And, to do something that no U.S. president has ever been able to do, which is secure our election system against communists who want to steal our vote and who are doing just that. It would be a legacy-defining moment not only for President Trump and his administration, but for our country. In doing so, we will be securing the freedom and prosperity of our country for an entire generation. I pray the Trump administration recognizes that in the "defeat" of Spencer Pratt, they have been given the opportunity of a lifetime.

Laura Shin says Republicans wouldn't call out Trump, and by the end everybody had lost the plot "If you look at the Republicans, and yes, the Republicans have been so helpful for crypto and they have seen the technology for the merits that it has, and they have kind of not done the same sort of political thing that the Democrats had done for so long." "However, they were not willing to call out President Trump for things that anybody could see easily were going to be bad for the industry." "Ultimately it culminated in this, where basically the ethics portion, which had nothing to do with the substance of anything to do with the industry or crypto itself, that is what killed the bill." "That's why I said this reminds you of Nero fiddling while Rome burns. It's like everybody lost the plot. By the end the only thing that mattered was this sort of he said she said fight." "Just people being in their positions and not being able to take a neutral step back, not being able to put their emotions aside, put their political aspirations aside and just say, what's important for the US, what's important for this world. And so here we are."
