CNN’s Jake Tapper: “Earlier this month you called Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner ‘impressive’ but since then a lot has come out about him including the fact that he had a [Nazi tattoo]... Do you still think that Platner’s impressive?” Sen. Chris Murphy (D-CT): “I’ve also listened to him talk about the difficult time that he went through in his life, and frankly, it’s not unfamiliar to a lot of soldiers… He sounds like a human being to me. A human being who made mistakes, recognizes them, and is very open about it.” The hypocrisy is astounding.

NEW: Sen. Bernie Sanders told me he’s “certainly not” rethinking his endorsement of Graham Platner following news that he sent sexually explicit text messages to women. “My understanding is that his wife, Amy, who I've met, indicated they love each other, but maybe we focus on the issues facing the American people, the people of Maine, and not the marriage issues facing Graham Platner.”

Graham Platner has told his campaign staff that he doesn't plan to file the paperwork to officially withdraw from the U.S. Senate race until Monday, the final deadline to do so, CBS News' Caitlin Huey-Burns reports. Jordan Wood, who has jumped into the race to replace Platner as the Democratic Senate nominee, says it's "disappointing" and Platner "should've dropped out on Monday and let this process unfold."

Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner's wife says it is shameful that the media is sharing "gossip" that she first brought to light. The statement from Amy Gertner comes after the New York Times reported that she flagged s*xually explicit texts to his campaign. "Graham and I have a great marriage. Being married is hard. Being newly married is hard. Being newly married and going through infertility is hard." Platner is accused of messaging multiple women outside of his marriage on a hookup messaging app. The New York Times reports that Platner's wife told ex-campaign director Genevieve McDonald that he was s*xting with 12 different women.

Sen. Ted Cruz OBLITERATES Maine U.S. Senate Democratic Candidate Graham Platner: “This guy up in Maine is a self-described communist. He has a Nazi tattoo that he’s had for 18 years on his chest. He’s a m*sogynist who’s attacked women and said it’s women’s fault if they get r*ped. He’s a r*pist who’s attacked — not a r*pist, but a racist who’s attacked African Americans. The recent story is all of these s*xually explicit texts that he sent to women, not his wife. He’s on a website that has child po*nography and s*xual predators. This guy is extreme.” “That guy is absolutely extreme.”

Shortly before news of Graham Platner’s adulterous sexts broke, NPR sat down with the Maine Senate hopeful and asked him to describe “the masculinity that you represent.” Platner said that while he lifts weights and shoots guns, he also has “a very open sort of dialog and emotional relationship with my wife.” When NPR asked Platner to do a follow-up interview to discuss the scandal, his campaign declined.

Maine Democratic Senate candidate Graham Platner announced Wednesday he is suspending his campaign after a woman accused him of sexually assaulting her when they were dating five years ago. Platner announced his decision in an 11-minute video where he vehemently denied the sexual assault allegations, calling them "false" and "not real," but said the pressure from state-level and national Democrats had made it impossible for his campaign to continue. As CBS News' Caitlin Huey-Burns reports, Platner's decision to drop out came one day after Sen. Bernie Sanders announced that he was withdrawing his support and recommended he step aside from the race.

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) doubled down on his support for Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner ahead of Tuesday’s primary, despite controversies surrounding the Democrat's campaign. “I am going to do everything I can to make sure that Graham Platner is the next senator from the state of Maine,” Sanders said during a conversation with CBS News’ Robert Costa at the National Press Club on June 8. “When you look at politics in general, there are no saints in the United States Senate,” Sanders added. Platner is facing allegations of "unsettling" behavior toward women he dated, and has also insisted that he did not know a chest tattoo he got as a Marine in 2007 is a widely recognized Nazi symbol. He has since had the tattoo covered up.

🎥🇺🇸 Asked whether a week of intense scrutiny made him consider dropping out, Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner said the experience showed why ordinary people are discouraged from running for office, and why that needs to change. He said the attacks had only strengthened his commitment to that goal. “Part of that really has to be making politics accessible to people who have lived regular lives, not just the people who prepared for it.”

It blows my mind that the Democrats are just fine with Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner's excuse that he didn't know he got a Nazi tattoo. They'll throw all their support behind him while branding Republicans as actual Nazis. This screams desperation. Maine Gubernatorial candidate Bobby Charles for Maine Governor tells me: “I’ve asked the other Democrats in the gubernatorial to disavow him, and they’ve chosen not to so far... Graham Platner is essentially a farce who is very well funded… He is a nazi, communist, woman-hating, minority-hating, veteran-hating guy who somehow has grabbed national attention. I think he’s a complete farce.”
