Apparently the Nazi is holding out on resigning, demanding that he gets to name/approve any replacement to ensure they have that right mix of Jew-hatred and left-wing lunacy. Only agree Graham after next Tuesday!

Platner is a juice head. Blood shot eyes, puffy, dresses like a slob.

She said he was drunk (or stoned or both)... And then claimed he could not remember anything the next morning.

In my younger days in the Marines I have been drunker than a skunk but I never was so drunk I could not remember anything............

So, all the other issues were OK, regarding his personal reputation, and regarding his potential reputation as a USA Senator?

Then, some woman no one knows, goes on TV, and claims, without evidence, that she was sexually assaulted by whats-his-name, and now, whats-his-name has to withdraw?

Wow!

The Democrats are the most corrupt major political party in the last 250 years!

> Bernie knew. <

And what’s worse, Bernie and Platner are kindred spirits. Here’s an article discussing how Bernie wrote about rape fantasies.

But hey, it’s Bernie. Bernie always gets a pass.

EXACTLY! They are trying to show some sort of “virtue” when they know this guy was plummeting in the polls. If these allegations were coming out and he was up 20 points, they would not care less about them.

That's one of the marks of alcoholism: "memory blackouts".

If he makes it to the Senate, he'll be among his own kind.

Platner is negotiating like the mullahs in Iran..he sure is a man of the people isnt he, instead of letting the voters decide who their nominee should be he wants to hand pick it for them, typical commie, doing it like what the Biden regime did in 2024

Its possible he was so stoned and drunk out of his mind he legit does NOT remember..heck a month ago this woman apparently didnt remember either otherwise she would have mentioned it to the Slimes, which she didnt, instead she said he made her feel “Uneasy” never mentioned a peep about rape, she held on to that lil tidbit til the Dems told her its time to release it

Bernie sanders and Mitch McConnell....Graham Plattner...Talarico...Massie.... isn’t there a fibometer or a griftometer or a corruptometer for these kinda’ people?

Is there a fact check organization for news reporting that’s ON all the time? Not just for rumors, or big issues..but for everything?

The leftists are going to use this method to install who they really want as a candidate, but was so bad that they couldn’t get past the primary.

Does it seem odd to anyone else that there isn’t a single Platner story posted in “Breaking”?
