Maine Democrats can select a new Senate hopeful if Graham Platner leaves the race. But there are complications.
First, Platner must withdraw no later than July 13 — this coming Monday.
Platner has implied he might be willing to withdraw, but he wants assurances that whoever replaces him shares his political values.
Talk of his resignation comes after a woman charged he raped her five years ago. The New York Times had information about that allegation a month ago, but sat on it. So we won’t give you an update from the delinquent Times, but instead the New York Post.
The 2026 midterm elections will produce a MAGA takeover in the U.S. Senate. That’s the prediction made here by Neil Johnson on his Lumberjack Logic show.
Johnson doesn’t project a monstrous change in the raw numbers. The Republicans now hold a 53-47 edge over the Democrats in the U.S. Senate. Johnson believes the next Senate will again be at least 53-47, with the Republicans holding an outside chance to add a seat or two. But even if the count remains 53-47, Republicans, and specifically MAGA Republicans, will be happier.
That’s because RINO turncoats like Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, John Cornyn of Texas and Bill Cassidy of Louisiana will be gone — replaced by Senators who will openly support the agenda of President Donald Trump as well as the vast majority of party members.
So we will not see the same chicanery we’ve seen under the current Senate term, waffling on the SAVE America Act and sticking a dagger in the backs of Republicans. We most certainly will welcome this change, and pray nothing sidetracks it.
Early Democratic leads in the polling numbers are now shrinking. In fact, even the left-leaning Marquette polling outfit shows Democrats and Republicans virtually tied — 49 percent to 48 percent. What’s happened?
As the Democratic Party has moved farther to the left, introducing a new slate of hardcore leftists, the party’s polling advantages have vanished. Now, we’re seeing the effects of nominating outright Nazis, fuddy woke nihilists and other renegade turncoats. Voters are horrified, and rightfully so — the Democrats erred in veering so far to the left they no longer can appeal to the average voter.
Will the party now take the U.S. Senate or U.S. House? Possible, but as time passes, less and less likely. Here’s more from the liberal Hivemind.
Graham Platner has concrete ties with Morris Katz, the leftist strategist who helped steer Zohran Mamdani into the mayoral office in New York City. The 27-year-old campaign strategist, a Skidmore College dropout, also previously advised John Fetterman’s Senate campaign in Pennsylvania as well as Dan Osborne, a so-called “independent” running in Nebraska.
Here, Liz Wheeler traces Katz’s rise as a leftist kingmaker, as well as his less-than-savory history as co-author of the book Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Puberty: And Shouldn’t be Googling: For Curious Boys. Wheeler considers it a prime example of “grooming.”
She also touches on the Brown University leftist Daniel Moraff, another key Platner advisor, with roots in the Democratic Socialists of America. Moraff also worked for Osborne as well as for U.S. Rep. Summer Lee, the Pennsylvania Democrat who is perhaps the most anti-Israeli member of the U.S. House. In short, we’re not going to call either of them “groomers,” but they are without a doubt socialist trailer trash. Real scum. Here’s more from Wheeler.
Graham Platner’s wife might say she stands by him, but the Democrats at large are quickly bailing and calling for an end to the adulterous candidate’s Senate race in Maine. Even the leftist idiots in the fake news at MS NOW are calling upon Democrats to dump Platner and replace him with someone more palatable to the public. They fear that leaving him in the race will tarnish the party as a whole in November and prompt a massive bloodbath.
No matter what happens to Platner, Republicans are going to come out ahead after this fiasco. Incumbent Susan Collins has to now be perceived as the likely Senate winner in Maine, and Republicans elsewhere will also perform better as the Democrats look hypocritical and weak, not to mention amoral. This is the dude who not only seeks partners beyond his wife, but also has a Nazi tattoo emblazoned on his chest. The only lingering question: How long before the Democrats make Platner walk the Swalwell plank? Here’s more from Langley Outdoor Academy.
Democrats are now talking about replacing Graham Platner, their Senate candidate in Maine, after the dam finally breaks on the malignant candidate. Platner originally raised howls when we learned he has a Nazi tattoo emblazoned across his chest.
Now, his wife has admitted he had been using the social media platform Kik to pick up women for sexual encounters. It’s apparent from reading his posts some of his “conquest” efforts were targeted at underage girls. In other words, this clown not only glorifies Adolf Hitler, but he also hustles teenagers.
Could the Democrats in the Swamp have stooped any lower? Don’t they have even the slightest standards? Has Trump derangement syndrome completely curled their judgments? Here’s more from Langley Outdoors Academy.
While the victories by Trump-backed candidates are encouraging, the wins by antisemitic and outright Jew-hating Democrats are downright terrifying! Let’s take a look…Here’s more from Lori Colley.
It’s Hammer Time. And when the hammer comes down, the real pain will flow. Boom. Boom. Boom. Boom. The next week should be exciting!
Is President Donald Trump now forming an alliance with Communist China? Will we see the two nations tackling more global issues collectively? How will that work? Can it bring prosperity or lead to a downturn?
Meanwhile, we are witnessing some startling twists. The Fairfax murder-suicide, involving former Virginia Lt. Gov. Justin Fairfax, offers a glimpse at deeply-rooted evil. Fairfax murdered his wife Cerina before killing himself. He was engaged in a frenetic struggle to clear his reputation following charges of sexual assault.
And speaking of fraud, when was the last time the United States produced any candidate as disgraceful as Maine Senate hopeful Graham Platner? Let’s hope the Nazi enthusiast gets trounced by a landslide in November! Here’s more from And We Know.
Democrats will support anyone — and we mean anyone — so long as they oppose President Donald Trump. A case in point: the Democratic U.S. Senate candidate from Maine, Graham Platner, with the Nazi insignia emblazoned on his chest.
Listen as CNN’s sniveling leftist analyst Adam Mockler defends this creep. Here’s more from Memology 101.
Democrats in Maine are left with a far-left nincompoop as their sole candidate to challenge incumbent Republican Susan Collins for a U.S. Senate seat. Meet Graham Platner, the oyster farmer with a Nazi skull and bones tattoo emblazoned across his chest.
Platner is the lone Democratic Senate candidate after Maine Gov. Janet Mills withdrew from the race. She’s apparently scared to death that she will be dragged down in a deeply rooted Somali fraud case. She’s also afraid of Platner’s support among the far-left loonies who now dominate so much of Democratic politics.
Platner’s Nazi insignia marks him as a fascist at heart, although he has covered up the tattoo, which he said he got over the course of a drunken night in Croatia. But he also has said some truly bizarre stuff about women who get raped and also has dumped on rural residents.
In short, it will be interesting to watch how the lefties contort like pretzels to justify running this whack job of a candidate. Here’s more from Neil Johnson.
Here’s a New York Post feature that notes how Platner has the support of many Democrats, as he’s already been endorsed by Bernie Sanders, Ellen Warren and Chuck Schumer.
But John Fetterman sang a different tune, saying Maine would be perceived as a bunch of idiots if they elect “an asshole with a Nazi tattoo.” You have to wonder: How long before Fetterman switches parties?
