Democrats were willing to run Springtime for Platner as long as they thought he could beat Susan Collins. That is the whole rotten trick. A Nazi-linked tattoo? “He evolved.” Misogynistic garbage? “Trauma.” Alleged abuse? “Complicated.” But the moment the candidate became an electoral liability, the party of “believe women” found the exit ramp and started pretending principle was driving. Spare us. This is the same machine that lectures America about decency while treating decency as a polling instrument. Platner denies the latest allegation, and the facts deserve process. But politically, the exposure is already damning: the Democrat Party will tolerate almost anything if the candidate hates Trump, mouths the right socialist slogans, and can be useful. The moral line appears only when the vote count collapses.

And msm is right in there with 'em. E.g., jake tapper and his "touching, concerned" interview manner...

The NYT reporters of the Lyndsey Fifield saga with the creep apparently manipulated and lied to Fifield while shaping the story as a weak allegation by a Republican strategist, which doesn't really count. They were given enough evidence by Fifield to sink this campaign weeks ago and chose not to. Why?

ron's avatar

Obviously, because they are on team demoncrat!

Any chink in a human’s psyche will be exploited by these ravenous Hyenas on their insatiable Quest for power & domination. They will inflict social degradation, physical & psychological damage, literal mutilation of even children (with parental encouragement!) to keep and increase their power, regardless of the illegality, immorality, and infinite destruction of lives. No better example of the Existence of G-d when you see Satan using all of his willing subjects to do his will to destroy the beauty of Earth.

Until recently I always regarded evil as just a lack of goodness or a metaphor. I've changed that view considerably and now believe that evil is indeed very real and has been unleashed upon the world. Satan is actively at work and is winning many converts who do his bidding without even knowing. I see Tucker, Kelly, Masse, MTG, and Bannon as envoys of Satan's new deception and subterfuge with their anti-Jew and Israel garbage. I have a friend that has succumbed to this evil hatred of Jews and blaming them for every ill that's ever happened - and he now links Trump into leading us into forever wars and destroying the economy. I am aghast and don't know how this can happen to otherwise intelligent and sane people?

Mom's Wisdom: My mother always said ( and I'm 76and and still remember this...) that the devil is not red, does not have horns and does not walk on cloven hoofs, He/it will approach you in a desirable form, a handsome man, a beautiful woman, and tempt you to do something only slightly wrong and erode your morals gradually. Or maybe offer you the big enchilada for big bucks. There will always be a way to explain it way. But the devil is in the details and in the living of everyday life...always. Be ever vigilant.

LuAnn's avatar

I changed my mind on that, too. Evil was unleashed (again) during the COVID-19 plan-demic.

Robert Brusca's avatar

Covid was the cover story Fauci and Democrats supplied the evil.

Cookie McCall's avatar

And Platner's latest victim to come forward is a Progressive, not one of those "untrustworthy" Republicans! Platner should be the one hanging from the nearest lamp post or tree! What a creep!

Stephen Youhanaie's avatar

So, the Dems wilted under the fact that Platner credibly assaults women. I wonder if there will be credible reports of Talarico being assaulted by a woman or a tranny. It's plausible to me

Robert Brusca's avatar

Yes. remember that Cuomo in NY had put Covid sufferers in Rest homes with the old and cause over 70-deaths and tried to cover it up. Old folks homes did not have the resources to isolate Covid sufferers. Cuomo did this to avoid using the Javits center Trump had paid to trick out as a state of the art center or use the hospital ship Trump sent to NYC. Both went unused. Instead, they ran Cuomo out for sexual harrassment asking personal questions of a young female intern and maybe touching her hair. clearly harassment trumps death in the Dem-o-world.

It's like deja vu all over again. I seem to recall the Dems all vouching for FJB's amazing abilities and fitness to run again until his disastrous debate with PDJT. Once that cat was out of the bag, those fair weather friends dumped Joe faster than you can say Let's go Brandon.

Things like his baggage are assets if they can stand for and be elected, AOC,Ilhan,and Jazzy C. as examples.

Think Musk killing USAID had more fallout than anyone realized; no wonder the Dems went apoplectic. They were using it as a slush fund & to launder $$$. Notice how many recent elections in South America went? The right-of-center candidates won. When has that happened in the last 50-odd years?

I constantly accuse the Dems of not building but destroying everything they get ahold of but there is one thing they build & build well: an Empire of Fraud. USAID, NGO’s, MediCare…there really needs to be a full audit, accounting & accountability. They have no qualms whatsoever in ripping off the American taxpayer.

Jake's avatar

Stealing is a feature, not a bug. Stop the fraud and balance the budget would put a big dent in our national debt.

Amy's avatar

Yes - It’s all right there for Americans to see.

Sam Prentice's avatar

And FINALLY actually restrain and limit all federal spending to only that EXPLICITLY named and authorized in Article I Section 8 of the Constitution. And the term or expression "General Welfare" is not a spending item but rather the method and manner of the spending, ie, not for a specific group or person but for the benefit of everyone. And I can't find charity or social welfare anywhere in that list of authorized spending.

Understand and good point but these days they are one and the same. Shoot, these days, we could substitute 'Democrats' for every entry that mentions Satan in the Bible and it would fit.

Leonard Wechsler's avatar

The Dems were fine with everything. The woman they are now pointing to as a victim spoke to several media outlets including the NY Times in the past. She was ignored because Platner was leading in the polls. So, it was OK to back a Nazi with a concentration camp guard tattoo who was also an avowed Communist. And who actually was living off his parents and a pension for mental instability. And who talked about raping men but "it wouldn't be gay." And who had been accused of sexual violence by another woman but she was a Republican. Sort of like when the Dems agreed with the United Nazis that it was alright to rape children as long as they were Jewish.

But he was ahead in he polls. All the Dems and their media sock puppets could do was suppress the news and divert attention. But as Collins pulled ahead, they stopped the support and allowed the rape news out...A WEEK BEFORE IT WOULD IT WOULD HAVE BEEN IMPOSSIBLE TO GET RID OF HIM.

The Dems are as bad as he is and the media, who claim their job is to inform us, are even worse.

Why not demand that some time be given to responses to lies and to add information....at least on news shows from the on-air media. Can you imagine Stephanopoulos and Karl explaining away all the nonsense when their audience can get both sides?

Playswithneedles's avatar

You forgot the account on the pedo-popular internet site and the comments on Reddit. The demonicrats were cool with all that too until his polls and his fundraising income tanked.

The demonicrats have just told us exactly who they are. We need more people to pay attention. I know a couple of dems who are very nice and intelligent people. I can’t fathom how they can keep voting for the slime their party nominates.

Steve (recovering lawyer)'s avatar

They keep voting for the slime their party nominates because they want those candidates elected. The people you know who keep voting democrat are neither nice nor intelligent. They are the "good Germans" who elected Hitler. By their fruits shall you know them. I realize that you are unable to comprehend how such nice and intelligent people could do this, because you are personally a good and decent person who wishes to believe the best of others. But sometimes you simply can't do that. Always remember that these nice and intelligent people are voting for candidates who, if given a chance, would put you in jail, take your livelihood away and impoverish your family, all because of their political beliefs. I'm sorry, but you would be best advised to sever your ties with them to the extent possible.

Playswithneedles's avatar

These are people I see on occasion in group social settings but that’s it. They are not friends. I interact with them as little as possible. One of them has a husband who has an extreme case of TDS. The other I think is merely ignorant as she gets all of her news from NPR.

Amy's avatar

Excellent reminder and advice.

Cookie McCall's avatar

You nailed it, Steve!

TeaPartyGal's avatar

The only problem with “severing your ties with them” is you are raising a white flag—surrendering them (as players on a board) to your opponent. America can’t go forward with such a large “unredeemed” segment of the population.

This type of Democrat got that way because their minds and morals were maliciously twisted by propaganda over many years. The only way to reverse it is to continue engaging with them but also bit by bit undoing the intellectual and moral tangle they got ensnared in.

LuAnn's avatar

You're right, TPG, but engaging with these folks is very trying.

Robert Brusca's avatar

I have frenids from high school ( cica 1968) who remained Democrats. My views remained more or less the same but suddenly I identified as Republican. How did that happen? What is it about being a party member these peole find so compeling? ...comrade...

Mike Ware's avatar

Thank you Steve. Well said.

Amy's avatar

Pride. It would hurt them deeply to admit how evil their party is - and ALWAYS has been.

Vince Gallo's avatar

You just insulted slime. 😂😂😂👍

Sam Prentice's avatar

Democrats are monsters and their party needs to be banned and/or destroyed. Every blight in America's history was spawned by them. Then they have the temerity to trash our country and people because of those very things their own party did. And yet they remain members of the Democratic Party and support it. People have eyes and ears to use, but Democrats choose not to use them. They are no good and will always be trying to undo our country. They must be not only defeated but obliterated.

ron's avatar

At least this one "only" waited five years to express her "concerns."

I wonder what compensation she got from demoncrats for suddenly "worrying about what this guy might do to women?"

Could possibly be she did it just to get her name in the press and to be interviewed on TV, liberal womyn aren’t all that smart. Thinking of that ridiculous, incompetent, immature 50+ year old womyn who tried to derail Kavanaugh.

Playswithneedles's avatar

Christine Ford. And then there was E Jean Carroll. Both waited about 30 years before suddenly remembering that they were assaulted by Republicans. The payoffs were huge.

Paid to come up with. Reid Hoffman has deep pockets. Hopefully he's being investigated.

Sam Prentice's avatar

They lie, bear false witness, try to actually destroy a man's life, and then just shrug their shoulders, walk away, and say - oh well, I tried! And nothing at all happens to them as a consequence. They are the ones who should be utterly destroyed after trying to ruin someone with lies.

Unfortunately, it looks like carroll (and her attorney) are going to make out after all with her bogus "rape" suit.

I wonder how long Trump can hold off paying her "damages?" Hopefully for years...

Khanna also said, “If there was any evidence that comes out that there is actual domestic violence or assault, I have zero tolerance for that.”

Khanna said this after Fifield told her story. He has 100% tolerance for domestic violence or assault when the victim is a conservative and/or when Politico and the rest of the MSM ignores the story.

So, you know, Khanna is a partisan hack POS slime-ball dickhead liar with zero principles.

But we knew that already.

WTPuck's avatar

He's in the party that has an actual death count in the war on women. Nuff said.

banckersen's avatar

The minute Collins pulled ahead of Platner in the polls, this new woman appeared with a rape allegation. Don't tell me the dems didn't have her waiting in the wings to put the final nail in his coffin. They've wanted to turn loose of this loser for some time. Now they have to find some warm body to fill the slot. Rumor has it, it won't be Janet Mills.

TeaPartyGal's avatar

Janet Mills is compromised because she has presided over a major Somali-fraud just like the one in Minnesota. If she runs, Republicans will hammer her with it. So Dems have to find some unknown who can be a blank slate they can pin purported virtues on.

William Coulter's avatar

This Platner guy was a yo-yo from the get go. He isn’t a generational Maine person like Collins is and was doomed to lose.

Now all the Republican complaining about the guy may result in a much stronger candy running against the insufferable Susan Collins and make the race much closer than it would have been with the yo-yo guy.

It’s almost like Republicans are trying to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.

steph_gray's avatar

The Dims have only twelve days before the deadline.

Amy's avatar

We can count on Dems to have another nut ready to run because they’ll have to get a black lesbian lumberjack like Don said - they have to for their base. Splatner was their white male attempt and that ended up in their faces.

steph_gray's avatar

I kinda picture them in a locked room training bright lights on Janet Mills’ face. “You vill do as we say! We haff ways of making you!”

WTPuck's avatar

It is the Republican way. But I don't think the press would be running with this without direction from their dem masters. So I don't think the establishment repubs should get all the blame.

William Coulter's avatar

They could be taking him out while they still have a chance to field someone less objectionable.

WTPuck's avatar

Do they have anyone less objectionable? LOL! I do get your point, though.

BlasterJack's avatar

The democrats are indulging in an eastern tradition akin to hari kari or self immolation.

It’s narcissistic and irrational. They have abandoned their core principles and are watching their grab for power slip away.

So will this be another situation where the democrats tell their constituents who they will vote for, or will they have another primary?

Cookie McCall's avatar

Robert's avatar

The nexus between USAID and other federal funds that agencies and NGO’s no longer have access to and the abysmal amount of funding money the Dem Party currently has available to spend makes it impossibly easy to know how their power was made possible.

They have huge debts from the Harris disaster to this day and not nearly enough private donations. The libs are pretty cheap people evidenced by supporting all causes that tax money will pay for. They just need to yell and bluster and that doesn’t cost anything.

We will see how far this communist message goes when it comes to elections. Very sad that we have increasing numbers of people that are so impressionable to the opportunistic carnival barkers who know there are suckers born every minute.

One of the first “old sayings” I remember was ‘he couldn’t say sh*t, if he had a mouth full of it’. Aside from the fact that my mother had used a ‘dirty word’, I was intrigued by the concept behind it. How does someone not know what they know? I could even give these people credit for the-ends-justify-the-means, but there was no way Tattoo Guy was going to win. Ditto for Mr. Michigan Muslim. I mean how seriously can you take millionaires bitching about billionaires? Talk about kettles & frying pans. How in gawd’s name can you be serious when talking about “affordability” when your minor children (Khanna) own golf courses? So the dems have gone from a ‘chicken in every pot’ to a golf course for all? So corruption is in the eye of the beholder. Man, I love old sayings!

BH's avatar

The following is an old phrase I’ve heard for years, same idea as yours, just a bit different spin…

“He sounds like a sh$t salesman with a mouthful of samples.”

Individuals like Khanna are simply delusional.

Sheila Barkofske's avatar

I like your version too. Can I plagiarize? Although describing Khanna as delusional affords him too much credit. To me, he is the embodiment of the sh*t salesman & knows exactly what he is selling.
