I received this fundraising text (below) the other day from this political newbie running as a Democrat while trashing a good portion of the party. It's one thing to come to the table with constructive ideas, but he doesn't seem to have any. In his campaign launch video he confesses "I'm not pretending to have all the answers, but I know I'm asking the right questions."
If you gave Platner a list of what each Democrat was doing to fight fascism, I don't know if he would know the names on the list! It's a disappointing start to his campaign for me. At least Janet Mills has a record of standing up to trump. I don't give a ratsass how old she is really.
I'm not from Maine, but I would support Platner for sure in the general and cross my fingers that he'll be as tough on oligarchs as he says he'll be.
