Why this time could be different for Platner. -Google searches for him are way up in Maine & hit all-time high on Sunday -Market odds have moved ~10 pt in Collins' direction -Collins has long history of beating her polls by 8+ pt Hard for Dems to win the... Senate without Maine.show more

*so let’s actively work against him so a republican wins* - CNN

Have we done any polling or are we now just using betting markets to manufacture consent?

Fact check: Platner currently polls about 9-10 points over Collins. She will have to outperform a lot in a midterm year in order to win. But thanks to CNN for "both sides" ing this for suspense.

Your masters are very very angry at him! He doesn't take the bribe! Bad move on his part!

@LudicrousHilar1

Oh! She's going to win! The anti-Christ has spoken! And that evil monster always gets what it wants.

@varadmehta Democrat leaders will soon realize that Mainers won’t vote for a woman hating, terrorist loving antisemitic racist Nazi, who mocks military heroes, and has an active acct on a predator app. AND he’s lying about his life! “Oyster farm” on friend’s island with 1 client: his MOM.🙄

The fact that he is a Nazi should be a serious issue.

@varadmehta But there is no mechanism to remove him. The establishment has no leverage over him.

Gee, the guy who thought a Nazi tattoo looked cool might be a bad candidate. Who knew?

The real answer to this question is simple: Democrats have absolutely no moral center "because trump" They elected Jay Jones for christ sake after those horrific texts

For all practical purposes, they already control the Senate. The left sure as hell has a better chance of getting what it wants out of the current senate than Trump does.

Are we pretending like Trump hasn't cheated on all of his wives? Like Susan Collins didn't vote for a whole bunch of people in this administration that were accused of sexually assaulting people or cheating on their wives? The concern trolling around platner is just ridiculous

@EWErickson Guess they should have picked someone other than *checks notes* an actual Nazi

Probably the greatest con since Covid or Russian collusion is calling online gambling sites, prediction markets. Literally hyping what degenerate gamblers hope will happen as a prediction is pure comedy.

Planter will be lucky to get 15% of the vote.

This is why I don’t watch CNN.

Our president is a pedophile, serial adulterer, and 34 time convicted felon. I don't think people are going to care about this in November.

Susan Collins: No tattoos No sexting And her mother doesn't support her by buying her oysters.

@varadmehta @ryangrim you assured me Maine voters don’t care about personal issues. What is happening bro? Is it possible not everyone is as laser focused on a foreign country as you?

@jay_kobbe Oh, Plätner will not be a Senator. The only question is whether the Dems can replace him before the deadline in July and whether he will let them.

Has there ever been a more flawed candidate? This makes Swallow-well look like a saint.

@WajahatAli How does CNN know the increased Google searches on Platner are motivated by negativity?

This is the same type of shit MSM pushed on Bernie in 16, constant attacks, ignoring the platforms, nothing but negative media.

@JonathanTamari I just put $100,000 on Collins to win in order to move the market in her favour - I have no idea if she will win but thought it'd be funny to see frauds like you try to analyse the market movements as if they mean anything.

Well, to be fair, we're talking about Collins here. She's pretty much a Democrat already.

Anyone who touched Platner’s campaign and hasn’t disavowed him should never see daylight again, even if Collins somehow loses. This should’ve been an easy win.

@WajahatAli Susan Collins has 300 percent chance of developing Dementia as she has Parkinson’s . Do not believe Harry Enten . And the sexting scandal is nothing compared to cheating scandals by @KenPaxtonTX

The whole Nazi Concentration Camp guard tattoo he wore for 18 years and signing up for an underage dating site (70% of users are between 13-24) isn’t a good look. But he’s a Democrat so they don’t care

It's not even about Maine TBH the democrats went crazy and are about to nominate a terrorist sympathizer in Michigan Mike Rogers is going to wipe the floor with him and flip that blue seat red At that point there is simply no way they can win 5 other red seats to take the Senate

CNN's going to take this loss real hard if it happens.

You don’t understand the times you live in if you believe this.

cnn is like “wow! we spent 3 hours of prime time news coverage talking shit about platner, and his google views skyrocketed!”
