Leftists shitting on Mills and her supporters because Platner will be the candidate in Maine forget that they actually need the votes of normie Dems to win this election.

@SarahIronside6 @M00se1992 Who cares! He’s running on the policies people want and need right now so he won by a landslide. It’s not complicated. Dems have tried the republican light approach over and over and it doesn’t work. Stand for something and meet people where they are and they’ll vote for you.

@PodSaveAmerica The level of disdain that leadership has for their own voters is off the charts. It would only do that if there are lessons in there that they want to ignore.

@tmavuram @DeanJoannou The idea that someone in the marines serving oversees might get a skull and crossbones without knowing its historical context is literally the easiest thing to imagine and if you can’t understand that you’re either full of shit or wildly out of touch.

@DeanJoannou what do you mean "being hung up on the tattoo". that is such a dumb thing to do. can you imagine for even a minute a woman running for high office who got a nazi tattoo and somehow didn't know that it was a nazi tattoo? and not immediately getting rid of it? no? wonder why!

I mean I hope Graham Platner wins but some of you really have no dignity. Put up any half drooling idiot white guy with tattoos who says health care should be free and you all clap and cheer like you just witnessed a miracle. I think we can do quite a bit better actually

Fetterman on Graham Platner: “Democrats really, really like Platner in Maine, but the Republicans fucking love him.” “If Maine wants an asshole with a Nazi tattoo on his chest, they get him.”

@SarahIronside6 Maybe another decade of vote shaming will finally work? Maybe next election you dig up Dick Cheney from the grave and wheel him out to campaign with instead of his daughter? Just spitballing. Because fuck actually listening to your voters right?

I would like to send out a massive and heartfelt "fuck you" to every single person who ignored Hillary Clinton's warning about SCOTUS in 2016.

@josecanyousee Why aren’t you more upset that the Dems have feckless leadership who campaigned with Liz Cheney and tried to out flank the GOP on immigration? You’re tried to vote shame for a decade now instead of actually running on what motivates people and it’s failed.

@krystalball Voters apparently wanted this candidate who had an actual Nazi symbol on his body (the Nazis perpetrated an actual genocide), and who opposed a fake genocide in Gaza.

Graham Platner's flawless victory against the sitting, Schumer backed Governor of Maine shows what a new day it is in the Dem party. He survived the oppo dump of all oppo dumps and it didn't even slow him down. Voters demand candidates who oppose oligarchs and genocide.

all jokes aside, graham platners success in maine is an amazing data point for left populist bernie-crats being electable in purple states. from m4a to stopping israel- centering the working class in your politics clearly works. total defeat of third way neoliberal thought.

If anyone *still* wonders why so-called normie dems have been so angry at folks since 2024... ... it's because we knew how bad it could get. The podcast bros, streamers, influencers, pundits and DC elites scoffed at harm reduction because they've never been at risk.

The House just voted against banning soda from SNAP. Why should the government fund your soda purchases? If SNAP recipients want to buy sugary drinks, they can do it on their own dime, not on the backs of a taxpayer-funded nutrition program.

Mills drops out without endorsing the man even Schumer now calls “the presumptive nominee.” Platner issues a gracious statement lauding Mills for her career of service. Yglesias accuses *Platner* of being “graceless.” The line “make it make sense” is tiresomely overused but man it is quite apt here.
Matthew Yglesias@mattyglesias

Something you're seeing today is that one of the signature characteristics of the left insurgents is they are very graceless about winning. They got what they wanted in Maine, but instead of pivoting to bring people in and beat Susan Collins they're doing ongoing factionalism.
