Establishment Democrats are looking to end Graham Platner’s Senate campaign
NEWNow you can listen to Fox News articles!
The world learned this week that Graham Platner, the Maine Democrat who is close to winning the party’s Senate primary next month, had sex with 12 women over the past few years of his marriage. For Platner, this just added to his Cadillac Mountain of scandals.
You are probably familiar with the fact that the so-called oyster farmer has a Nazi tattoo which he hid only after lying about knowing its meaning. He also has a long history of off-color Reddit posts, including comments accusing women of rape.

What was most telling about these new sexual revelations was not that they exposed Platner as a bird. We already knew that. It was that the leak came from another Democrat.
The party may begin to realize that they have created a Marxist monster that they cannot control.

A few days ago, there began to be what appears to be an attempt by the Democratic Alliance establishment to continue the campaign of Socialist Platner, although his Democratic Alliance opponent, Gov. Janet Mills is out and polls show Blowhard leading Republican Sen. Susan Collins in the general election.
We’ve known for a while that Platner isn’t exactly the poster child for impulse control, so why now? Why did a Democratic insider who worked for him immediately reveal the secrets that Platner’s wife had tagged in the campaign?
Another hint that this opposition research is dropping, or in this case the drop of the “same team” research, came a few days after Representative Jake Auchincloss D-Mass., called Platner’s shenanigans, including the ink of the Third Reich, “disqualifying.”

Although Auchincloss eventually backtracked, saying that beating Collins and winning the Senate was a priority, this was an attack that looked like a solid base.

Of course, Pennsylvania Democratic Senator John Fetterman has been warning about Platner’s unfitness for office for months. On Saturday, he told me about a new scandal, in millennial style.
“Up-Hustle found his Swalwell-On sending sexually graphic texts to a dozen women,” Fetterman wrote. “No Slow Comms Day for Question Hound Democrats.”

The question hound is a meme icon where a dog sits in a cafe and says, “This is okay.”
Another thing we saw last week is that the Mayor of New York City, Zohran Mamdani, who, like Platner, is a member of Sen. Bernie Sanders Vt., a happy party of Communists, endorsed the Muslim socialist over the veteran Democratic Bronx Rep. Adriano Espaillat, whom Madman Mamdani had promised to bring back.
It seems that the Democrats realize that if they choose to deceive these communists, as they have been doing many, it will not protect them from being named progressive lunatics, and possibly losing, as Mills did.

Platner’s supporters at the party, many of them the same people who propelled Zohran to success, circled the wagons around their boy. They claim that the leaking aide has committed a heinous act of betrayal, and with a straight face, they suggest that Platner is the victim in all of this.

There are two problems with this. Another is that voters don’t care about the internal conflicts of the campaign. Nobody watches that much C-SPAN. The second is that, this time, after the Democratic Socialists have largely swallowed the party, the Establishment seems to be fighting back.
Lines are being drawn in this battle for the soul of the Jeffersonian and Jacksonian factions. This week, the party’s rising star Rep. Ro Khana, D-Calif., will campaign with Platner, and so far, he’s standing by his candidate, despite recent allegations and the near-certainty of dropping more shoes.

Platner will also be supported by Communist podcaster Hasan Piker, who continues to be the party’s leading spokesman. Let’s be honest, who hears more these days, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries or Piker?
There are rumors of ongoing plans to replace Platner in the election in November, perhaps with Mills, but this looks like a pipe dream, an attempt to save the seat because of the mentality that comes a day later and the dollar is short.

Everywhere you look across the country, the far left is at the top of the Democratic Party. Finally it seems that the old school Democrats are realizing, as their political security falls in the crosshairs of the Democratic Socialists.
Make no mistake, the communists are a cycle or two from completely controlling the Democratic Party, if they haven’t already. This is bad news for our nation, but sadly, this last minute effort by the organization to eliminate Platner appears to have failed.
