Democrats Have A Graham Platner Problem

Over the weekend, Maine Democrat Senate candidate Graham Platner doubled down on his disgusting comments calling a Purple Heart recipient, who was shot by the Taliban four times, “a dumb motherfucker who didn’t deserve to live."

While even fellow Democrats like Rep. Jake Auchincloss are calling Platner’s long list of heinous comments “disqualifying,” Democrats across the country are still lining up to support Platner.

Democrats who are refusing to condemn Platner’s abhorrent comments are condoning them:

• Says women should "act like an adult" to avoid rape
• Says “black people don’t tip”
• Calls all cops “pigs” and “bastards”
• Says rural Mainers are “racist and stupid”
• Calls himself a communist and advocates for closer cooperation with China
• Mocks the idea of women reporting rape in the military 
• Praises Hamas terrorists for murdering Israeli soldiers
• Slanders Republicans as “fascists” 
• Says Democrat Shutdowns are “good”
• Says he doesn’t love America anymore
• Calls Jesus a “zombie” and Virgin Mary a “skank”
• Says violence with a gun is necessary
• Supports men in girls’ sports
• Calls Maine’s lobstermen “pieces of shit” 
• Has a Nazi tattoo
• Smears the late U.S. Navy SEAL Chris Kyle
• Complains about not being able to “bang” Thai hookers
• Says a U.S. soldier shot by the Taliban four times was a “dumb motherfucker who didn’t deserve to live.”
• Says he would shut down the Trump administration every day
• Refuses to condemn political violence

Democrats have a serious Platner problem: Embracing a racist, vulgar, and violent candidate to simply appease the far-Left will not go well in Maine.
