Someone needs to inform Jay Caspian Kang of the New Yorker that "dirtbag" is considered to be a pejorative, not a positive. Yet, Kang seems to think that he is somehow helping to restore the sinking candidacy of Democrat Graham Platner for the U.S. Senate from Maine by repeatedly referring to him as the "embodiment of the dirtbag left" as he did on Friday with "What Explains Graham Platner’s Popularity?"
And Kang weirdly does his worst to help Graham's supposed popularity by emphasizing Platner as a "dirtbag" starting with the subtitle: "The U.S. Senate candidate from Maine seems like the embodiment of the dirtbag left. But there’s another way to understand his appeal."

well, they started with trying to make ‘brat’ cool, now ‘dirtbag’. Next election they can proceed through ‘scumbag’ to ‘traitor’ and on to ‘chomo’ in 2028, especially if they run Newsom.
All democrats are dirtbags.
com o’ mai’n,
chu got somtin to say ‘gainst cholos, bring it..
Actually this dirtbag is someone Susan Collins could beat.
The Mills monstrosity with its money and leftist cheating? Probably not.
Again, he should be referred to as Graham “Maine Kampf” Platner by all of us.
Mills is an idiot AND a dirt bag.
She also appears to have an aversion to soap and water.
She always looks so DIRTY.
The language she uses would make a drunken fellow
moon bat embarrassed.
She is vile, STUPID and vulgar,
She and her brother have been scamming Maine for
years.
She made me cringe when she was so disrespectful
to President Trump.
Sadly, she has all kinds of money, as do her backers.
She could give Collins a run for her money, and I hope
To God she will not win.
The fact that she wants to bring in 79,000 (!) refugees
by 2028, may have sunk her!
God, I miss Paul Lepage!
