The filibuster actually has value otherwise the country would be legislatively whipsawed with each power change.

What a mindless take. The super high-functioning are a different breed and there's interesting research about their brains. In case should be judged on its own merits. Mills is doing well as governor. Her age is not a reason to go with the guy with a Nazi tattoo and misogynist tendencies.

Orwell News is a more fitting name.

I'm from MN. I like Flanagan but she's the current Lt. Gov and the Republicans will hammer her about the discovered fraud. Minnesotans simply won't abide squandering taxpayer money so I think Craig is a safer choice despite some of her votes. Better her than a Republican.

Because he plays at being president without understanding the nature of the office.

What Does Russia Have on Trump? Americans Deserve an Answer As Russia reportedly shares intelligence with Iran that could endanger American forces, the White House chooses to ease pressure on Moscow instead of confronting it.

Ukraine offers to help defend the West from Iranian drones.

Russia helps Iran track American forces.

And the White House eases sanctions on Russian oil.

Explain that to the families of U.S. troops. My latest:

I like to think that it goes without saying that genocide is always wrong. I would suppose that neither candidate is progenocide so that's not a determining issue for Mainers.

You think that's the major issue for Mainers in the Senate primary when we have Trump running the country into the ground? Get real. I have already seen so much that disqualifies Platner that I am not surprised that he complained about being vetted by the DSCC. Collins will expose more problems.

Ask him about his comments about rape victims.

The guys who recruited Fetterman are the same ones pushing Platner.

But in Mills, Maine has a candidate who has exhibited that she's not a coward when it comes to Trump. I think big money is operating behind the scenes to prop up Platner. I saw a breakdown of who was supporting him and big money was clearly favoring him. What do they expect in return?

He's almost at Kristi Noem levels of sadistic behavior.

The Marines would have let him reenlist in 2009 had he removed or covered up that tattoo but he chose not to. So it wasn't just a single bad choice. Wonder why that particular tattoo meant so much to him.

He has been prepped on what to say and how to deliver it. Are you aware of his misogynistic comments or that he voted for Susan Collins three times? I would take an establishment candidate over someone who just entered politics and has his baggage.

Maine has a proven winner in Gov. Mills. It boggles my mind that Platner has the support he has. He's a Republican Trojan Horse.

He's a plant. His past is littered with tells that make it clear he's not the savior of the working class. Maine has a proven winner in Janet Mills and she doesn't have Platner's extensive baggage. Susan Collins would run nonstop attack ads featuring his lies. Think, man, think!

Capitol Hunters confirms Platner lied about why he could not get back into the Marines in 2009. It was because of his Nazi/antisemitic tattoo. He blamed Marine policy barring sleeve tattoos, but Marine policy grandfathered sleeve tattoos. It barred symbols of hate, which is what the Totenkopf is.

I guarantee you Collins and the NRSC are sitting on a mountain of oppo on Platner they can't wait to release if he wins the nomination.

The worst part is Platner wouldn't just lose to Collins -- he'd be an anchor around the neck of every other Dem Senate candidate.

One thing I know is that the GOP Senate election machine employ ad firms that can produce exquisite negative ads and the target on Platner’s back keeps getting larger. There are no magic pony candidates, just an older woman who isn’t a dope.

Were you aware that he was recruited by the same team who gave us Fetterman? Did you know he had to scrub his Reddit account because he posted lots of bad things or that he implied that rape victims were partially to blame for their assaults? Please tell Mainers about his very toxic side of him.

This thread is not about whether Platner is a Nazi. It’s about how he lies like a toddler when he’s cornered. And that’s enough. He’s not electable, and Susan Collins knows it. You can too, if you can read this thread, or this 18-page document. 2/

Poor are you poorly informed. He has made comments blaming rape victims for their assault. He went back to the Middle East as essentially a mercenary. He recently reposted an antisemitic influencers. He just to a conspiracy podcaster that he was a big fan. The man lies. Mills is the one to vote for.

Janet Mills has won state wide elections twice and is a known figure. That you would consider taking the risk that Susan Collins might have other oppo against Platner because he knows how to pose makes me question your judgement.

Was it a smear campaign when he scrubbed his Reddit posts? He is not what he claims to be. Trump played Rs in 2016; Platner is doing the same to Ds. He's a Republican Trojan Horse.
