From standing by a guy who wished an opponent's children be shot to this guy.
Hypocrisy is all that the left and Democrats have left.
Democrats believe their best chance to defeat incumbent U.S. Senator Susan Collins (R-ME) is with Graham Platner, a guy sporting a Nazi tattoo, so they are sticking with him.
The shameless hacks at the far-left Politico claim Democrat U.S. Senate candidate Platner's tattoo only "resembles" a Nazi symbol but … it's a Nazi symbol, and as Platner's own former political director says, Platner "damn well knows" it's a Nazi tattoo.
Platner, who sells himself as an everyday "oyster farmer" has turned out to be everything Democrats and media outlets (like the far-left Politico) always falsely accuse Republicans of being.
Let's start with the fact Platner is, to be charitable, Nazi adjacent.
He also advocates violence… Here's what he wrote just a few years ago in a Reddit post that was deleted after he became a candidate: "Tell them that if they expect to fight fascism without a good semi-automatic rifle, they ought to do some reading of history."
In another thread the 41-year-old military veteran wrote: "After the war, I've pretty much stopped believing in any of the patriotic nonsense that got me there in the first place, and am a firm believer that the best thing a person can do is help their neighbors and live a loving life."
Then he added this: "Still got the guns though. I don't trust the fascists to act politely."
He's also a bigot… Here's his response to a Reddit thread titled: "White people aren't as racist or stupid as Trump thinks." "Living in white rural America," he wrote, "I'm afraid to tell you they actually are."
He's also a self-described "vegetable growing, psychedelics taking socialist these days." Oh, and he admitted that he "got older and became a communist."
Oh, and he's a racist and sexist:

The Washington Post would later report that Platner also posted on Reddit asking why Black people did not tip and asked why women did not "take some responsibility for themselves and not get so f—-d up they wind up having sex with someone they don't mean to?"
