Democrat Senate Hopeful’s Campaign Hit With Racy New Scandal

Democratic Senate hopeful Graham Platner is under renewed scrutiny after newly resurfaced online posts revealed vulgar comments about masturbation in portable toilets and crude graffiti discussions tied to a Reddit account he has acknowledged was his.

The posts, highlighted this week by Fox News, are the latest controversy surrounding Platner as the Maine Democrat tries to position himself as a populist challenger to longtime Sen. Susan Collins in one of the country’s most closely watched Senate races.

According to the report, Platner responded to a 2017 discussion on Reddit’s military forum by writing, “I still have to jerk off every time I sit in a portas—-er… that blue water smell conditioned me.”

In another post from 2021, Platner reportedly described sexually explicit graffiti he encountered inside a portable toilet while deployed overseas.

The comments were linked to the Reddit account “P-Hustle,” which Platner previously admitted belonged to him after earlier controversies erupted over years of inflammatory posts.

Past comments tied to the account included remarks about race, sexual assault victims, and political violence, along with anti-gay slurs and other inflammatory statements that triggered backlash from both Republicans and Democrats in Maine.

Platner has repeatedly apologized for the posts and said many of them were written during a dark period after returning from military service in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Sometimes, the enemy of my enemy, is also my enemy.
Islam sanitizes oppression. Islam rebrands cruelty as culture, and expects applause from Liberal fools for their Islamic progressivism.
You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.
Rational fear and anger at vicious murderous Islamic terrorists is the same as irrational antisemitism, according to the Leftists

And then there's this:

In 2019, seven years ago, when he was 34-years-old, Graham Platner logged into reddit and posted a response to a video of an American soldier being shot by the Taliban.

Platner wrote:

"This video never gets old. Dumb bleep didn't deserve to live. At least his stupidity and fat ass wheezing are available for all future infantrymen to witness and hold in contempt. Poor marksmanship on the Taliban's part is the only reason this mouthbreather made it home, he managed to make every possible shit decision possible when it comes to small unit combat." ...

None of this hurts in the vote-blue-no-matter-who crowd.  Everybody knew President Puddin'head was showering with his teen-aged daughter and sniffing the hair of every little girl unfortunate enough to get within his arm's length, and he still got millions to vote for him.  Being a disturbing perve was not a deal-breaker for him, and these allegations against Plattner won't be a deal-breaker either.
I don’t owe tolerance to people who disagree with my existence.
I will NOT comply.
