They're backing away from that because they think "cost" them the election---forgetting it literally helped win the 2020 election!

Apparently they're so cooked that getting Nazi tattoos with your bros isn't even that weird? If that's true then it needs to burn the fuck down.
The fact that he was in the military (or specifically a mercenary army) was the red flag that should've eliminated him. Surely the Dems can do better than someone who chose to be a Blackwater employee?

Also, why are you, as a party, letting this Independent tell you how to run campaigns for a party he can't commit to unless he's running for president?!

He's only a Democrat when he needs your infrastructure to run for a national campaign because there is no "Independent Party" infrastructure.
Otherwise, he'd run, unapologetically as a Democrat in his own state
CNN confirms that multiple sources suggest Graham Platner knew his tattoo was a Nazi symbol years prior to launching his campaign โ and is now blatantly lying about it.
