@jbarro What a scandal lol. He must be the first person to ever run who got a loan from their parents

English

The New Yorker corrects its Graham Platner profile which originally stated he bought his home w/ "the aid of a Department of Veterans Affairs low-interest mortgage." Actually, Platner received a $200,000 loan his Dad. @FreeBeacon got the mortgage docs. freebeacon.com/democrats/free…

Josh Barro@jbarro·1h

Wait so Platner’s dad loaned his son $200k to buy a house, and they actually filed a recorded mortgage? I guess maybe for tax reasons?

@almaforarizona The problem with this is that it is the DEMOCRATIC PARTY that is allowing DSA candidates to run on the DEMOCRATIC PARTY LINE. End that and kick socialist islamists out of the party.

@DPearsonPHL @daveweigel Seems really unfair to me to compare Fetterman to a guy who thought getting a Nazi tattoo was a good idea. It wouldn't surprise me though if Platner turns out to be a groyper pretending to be DSA.

Platner hates being compared to Fetterman, but the last working class coded Dem who Rs tried to define by his wealthy family and elite education was… well, you know.

Most enjoyable part of this hit piece on Platner are the comments, from people who are almost uniformly annoyed. nytimes.com/2026/05/15/us/…

Platner’s campaign will live and die on voters perceptions of his authenticity. So far, polling has showed that Dem primary voters are sold on him. It’ll be a grueling general though where he will have to navigate old, and likely new, personal attacks #MEpolitics

#MaineSenate NYT: More than two dozen interviews, reviews of his financial documents and a visit to his hometown reveal a back story that defies easy categorization, complicating the blue-collar image cultivated by Graham Platner and his campaign. Platner is an oysterman, a combat veteran and a former harbor master from tiny Sullivan. He is also the son of a Dartmouth College-educated lawyer, the grandson of a famed Connecticut architect and a graduate of a private high school. His parents have offered him privileges and connections and have helped him financially. nytimes.com/2026/05/15/us/…
