DEMOCRATS HAVE TO DECIDE: DO THEY WANT TO TAKE BACK THE SENATE OR REQUIRE A PURITY TEST FOR THEIR POLITICIANS?

 







Grahm Platner is a flawed candidate for the Maine Senate, running against Republican Susan Collins who voted 98% in favor of Trump's agenda. 





 

Platner has been accused by three women he dated of being demeaning, one claiming physical intimidation. Platner did four tours in Iraq.  He admits he was reacting from PTSD when he returned from war.  

 

Platner has some baggage, but he is popular with working people of Maine and is probably the only candidate who can take down Collins.   

 

Republicans would circle the wagons and have no problem with him as a candidate.

 

Democrats do this every time; they require a purity test, often tearing down their own candidates, while republicans, who elected Donald Trump, take over the Senate and Congress.




PTSD is real, affecting people who return from combat in different ways.


There is a feeding frenzy that may cost the Democrats the Senate.
