He'll Have to Leave the State? Supposedly, the Dirt on Graham Platner Is *THAT* Bad

Matt Vespa | May 04, 2026 6:55 AM

Maine Gov. Janet Mills has dropped out, which means the oyster man with Nazi tattoos, Graham Platner, is now set to challenge Republican incumbent Sen. Susan Collins in November. The Platner camp was already preparing for the general election, as their poll numbers were solid. However, Platner’s Nazi tattoos are just one of many issues with his candidacy. The worst part is how Democrats are so indifferent about it—literally accepting a narrative that says ‘he’s a Nazi, but not that bad of a Nazi’ when referring to this guy.

From the article:

The National Republican Senatorial Committee’s Sarah Gallagher shared a relevant clip from HBO’s Succession where the character Tom Wambsgans, played by Matthew Macfadyen, is vetting a news anchor who might have neo-Nazi sympathies. Yes, this is pretty much how the Democrats vetted their candidates for the Maine showdown.

Maine Democrat Senate candidate Graham Platner commenting on s*xual assault: "Holy f---, how about people just take some responsibility for themselves and not get so f----- up they wind up having sex with someone they don't mean to? So if you don't want to be in a comprising situation, act like an adult for f---- sake."

Graham Platner about getting his N*zi tattoo: "We went ashore in Split, Croatia... and we got very inebriated, and we decided to go get a tattoo. And we chose a terrifying looking skull and crossbones off the wall."

So... it's a woman's responsibility if she gets drunk and then assaulted, but it's not his responsibility he got drunk and chose a N*zi tattoo?
