If you are not conversant with his past, then that’s on you. You sure seem to know plenty about him in your other posts, including an AIPAC obsession. Bye now .

I don't care about Platner's sexting issue, but I do care about his Nazi Tattoo. [View all] Chasstev365 21 hrs ago OP

It matters to me also - TBF 21 hrs ago #1

Do you think Platner is a Nazi? Ocelot II 21 hrs ago #2

It is what some imply (with absolute intent) and I think it is an absolutely false charge. Platner is not a nazi. He is Celerity 20 hrs ago #32

Of course he isn't. I was looking for someone to explain why having gotten a tattoo Ocelot II 19 hrs ago #35

"Graham Platner is no Nazi". AloeVera 16 hrs ago #74

The tattoo really pesters me LetMyPeopleVote 21 hrs ago #3

I don't think sexting is a good idea in a candidate LisaL 21 hrs ago #12

To be fair the sexting was years ago EdmondDantes_ 20 hrs ago #18

He has only been married for 3 years. LisaL 20 hrs ago #20

In this context, I would say during the campaign EdmondDantes_ 17 hrs ago #52

He was not running at the time. Nt AloeVera 20 hrs ago #24

Well, I guess anything you did before the campaign LisaL 20 hrs ago #29

Like I said, he's running for sainthood. AloeVera 17 hrs ago #57

Actually, given how he surged in spite of the tattoo and posts, karynnj 16 hrs ago #77

i urge you to not check Lindsay Graham's browser history mr715 12 hrs ago #108

Whoa, I did not know that PatSeg 20 hrs ago #22

Those things matter to me, too, but I don't want Collins to be re-elected. sop 21 hrs ago #4

I agree, but I think Maine Democrats could have come up with less controversial candidate Chasstev365 21 hrs ago #6

They didn't, so the only choice will be Collins or Platner. I would prefer Susan Collins not be re-elected. sop 21 hrs ago #9

Fair Enough! Chasstev365 21 hrs ago #11

THANK YOU Skittles 20 hrs ago #26

Somebody vetted him. That's how we know that Platner is a gay bashing, rape apologizing, racist lapucelle 11 hrs ago #112

JFC Skittles 10 hrs ago #117

Did I mention that Platner sounded a bit wistful that urinating on [enemy] bodies is now a "poor choice, lapucelle 3 hrs ago #124

The person you describe misanthrope 7 hrs ago #121

I forgot about his not voting for Biden and Harris. betsuni 6 hrs ago #122

That's not true. Three Democrats will be on the June 9 ballot: Platner, Mills, and David Costello. lapucelle 12 hrs ago #106

Costello's polling at 3 to 4%, Mills withdrew from the race, and Platner is the presumptive nominee. sop 2 hrs ago #127

So it hasn't been determined that "the only choice will be Platner or Collins", lapucelle 2 hrs ago #128

You're right, it's never too late; Mills could re-enter the race and Platner could do the decent thing and drop out. sop 2 hrs ago #131

Mills is still on the ballot, but I'm not sure why David Costello is being dismissed out of hand. lapucelle 2 hrs ago #134

I do believe Platner's explanation. Americanme 21 hrs ago #5

What's his explanation for sexting? LisaL 21 hrs ago #13

I have not heard his explanation for that, or even what the texts were about. Americanme 17 hrs ago #54

I find that hilarious. LisaL 16 hrs ago #63

On that, I agree 100%. Americanme 13 hrs ago #99

Getting it drunk sure, possible, having it for almost 20 years without knowing seems very unlikely to me EX500rider 17 hrs ago #56

Exactly. LisaL 16 hrs ago #67

He wasn't running for office then MichMan 13 hrs ago #100

More LOL. The answers are all over this site and you know it. Nixie 15 hrs ago #86

His interview with NBC News. sheshe2 12 hrs ago #107

That doesn't make him a Republican. Political affiliation is determined by voter registration, not how you vote. AloeVera 8 hrs ago #119

Ummm K sheshe2 7 hrs ago #120

Platner is a either serial mis-rememberer or a liar, though. lapucelle 2 hrs ago #125

Was Platner lying or *mis-remembering* when he spoke to CNN six months ago? lapucelle 2 hrs ago #126

Was Platner lying or *mis-remembering* when he claimed to never have been "close to money" lapucelle 2 hrs ago #130

Woh, Platner seems to be *mis-remembering* his record of voting for Collins. lapucelle 3 hrs ago #123

Thanks AloeVera Coolgoober 12 hrs ago #110
