Getting very close now.

β€œEither they didn’t thoroughly vet him or they didn’t think the things they found would be a problem,” McDonald said in an interview. β€œEither way, that was a poor calculus. You cannot say things like rural Mainers are β€˜racist’ and β€˜stupid’ or you’re a radicalized communist at 37, play them off as β€˜you were a young man’ and remain a serious contender against Susan Collins. This was four years ago.”

Is she? She seems to have left his campaign because he said he was a communist, not because she thinks he's a Nazi.

The comment underneath that one is a much better point.

No, there's an anonymous source that claims he's lying. That's not proof.

I'm incapable of propping anyone up. You're the one here mad about Platner. You need to be working to make those other candidates viable, not me. This is your cause. I think he's telling the truth.

He isn't. I'm not arguing that he's owed anything. That's not how democracy works.

25.10.2025 07:08 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 0

Well, he should. That's gross. Someone should ask him about it.

Anti black harassment? That thread is centrists complaining that leftists protest Democrats more than Republicans.

Oh no, I got called a shill by someone that doesn't know where the forearm is located.

Oh, I just looked a message above, my bad. That is about forearm tattoos. That's not about his chest tattoo at all.

It's pay walled. Does it suggest he's about to get his ass kicked? The headline that he's getting support from "both sides of the aisle" is certainly a point in your favor. That language makes me nervous.

Based on what?

Sure, let me know when you find them.

I agree. That's definitely funny. Dude called it.

25.10.2025 06:41 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 0

That's weird. I wonder why they wouldn't match.

Given his platform and what he advocates for, not likely. Certainly higher than if neither of those things were true though. I'll give you that.

Yeah, and they are polling at 1% or less. So they better their shit together and fast.

When did I say that? I'm all in favor of finding a better candidate. That's what primaries are for.

25.10.2025 05:58 β€” πŸ‘ 1    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

Yeah, and his opponents want more soldiers to do just that.

All in? Making a few posts in defense of him on Bluesky is hardly "all in".

25.10.2025 04:09 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

Well then Democrats better hurry up and find someone.

I looked it up because I couldn't remember. I joined December first according to Peerlist. So, close.

Mills has a D next to her name. We're talking about a primary. This doesn't even make sense.

"switching military branches because the Marines disapproved his tatts". Do you have a source for this one? I tried googling it but every link is just about hom covering it up.

I'm ok with that. I believe in rehabilitation. And I think he's telling the truth. If it turns out he's a Nazi scumbag and is just lying, so be it. Egg on my face.

25.10.2025 03:41 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 8    πŸ“Œ 0

Sure, that's a good perspective to have. Someone needs to beat Mills and Collins in the meantime though. So as long as he's the best option for that, I'm going to advocate for voting for him.

That's not what I said at all.

Apparently quite difficult assuming you don't just want to settle for some centrist that will actually support fascism.
