        He still managed to come out two years ahead of nearly everyone else.

        The US Senate is a shit place full of shit people. But you’re fooling yourself if you think Bernie Sanders is the reason we’re still sending billions a month through back channels to re-arm the Zionists in their crusade for a Greater Israel. There’s about 98 Senators ahead of him in line. 97 if Platner pulls it out in Maine.

          No he didn’t. Lol, what crazy history rewrite are you on about Bernie was getting outflanked by milkquetoast centrists. The only reason he caved was because his position as a liberal zionist was getting completely unholdable.

          As for Nazi Platner, I’m not sure how the guy endorsed by Chuck “my job is to keep the left pro-Israel” Schumer is going to fight Israel but you’re doing apologism for Bernie’s Zionism so I won’t bother asking.

            He’s continued to endorse and prop up viable anti-zionist candidates with his popularity. You’re an idiot if you’re trying to discredit how much he’s helped grow socialist movements in the US.

            Are you genuinely unaware of how critical Maine is for the Senate? Schumer can get away with not endorsing a Mayor, not a Dem in an incredibly important senete seat. Your the one getting duped by a grifter like Bad Empanada into supporting a Zionist smeer campaign.

              Did he endorse Maureen Galindo? Does he call for a full arms embargo on Israel? No you’re just lying.

              Schumer will literally throw the entire election for Israel. The Democrats did it in 2024 and they’ll do it again.

              Platner’s step-brother Seth Franzman is a hardcore Israeli genocide propagandist who does direct PR for Israel.

              Your the one getting duped by a grifter like Bad Empanada into supporting a Zionist smeer campaign.

              Oh no stupid me getting duped by facts instead of doing genocide apologia.

                Are aware of what the term viable means?

                You’re certainly dead set on helping throw the Maine race to the actual Zionist Republican candidate

                The best you got is that he has a Zionist step-brother? So Platner must be also secretly Zionist?

                So his listed positions must be fake, actually.

                The smeer campaign, backed by actual Zionist money, must also be fake. And yet also secretly 4-D chess, since Platner’s secretly a Zionist. Despite being the only candidate with zero AIPAC money in the race. Great work, detective. Case solved.

                  A Zionist Israeli step-brother who Graham is very close with. Meaning his wife is likely Israeli dual-citizen as well. Combined with him not calling for a full weapons embargo on Israel and taking all the J-Street positions. Him being an unrepentant mass murderer (of brown people which you don’t care about of course) frequent liar and cheater on his wife. It’s a red flag minefield.

                  At this point you’d have a better shot defending Trump as the anti-war president in 2024 than Graham Platner.
