Despite media scrutiny and attacks on his character, progressive Senate candidate Graham Platner continues to gain support in Maine, with 58% of voters backing him. His platform focuses on making life more affordable, shifting the Democratic Party away from corporate interests, and ensuring the wealthy pay their fair share. #GrahamPlatner
Even if he knew. Young soldiers doing stupid edgy stuff is par for the course. SS skull? Looks badass, man! That’s about the amount of thought that went into that.
You’re right, you should vote for the Nazi candidates that are proud to be a Nazis, and are promoting Nazi policies. That will teach those good Dem candidates…to not run for office.
It’s not about him being a “better” Nazi, or even a Nazi at all. It’s about whether you believe this politician before he’s even elected.
He’s clearly not a Nazi, and nobody in his history is claiming he’s had a history of Nazi behavior.
This is about his constituents believing him. If they believe his story, then vote for him. Or not.
But he’s not a Nazi, he’s a guy who used to be Marine, got drunk, and got a regrettable tattoo. That’s not a rare thing, and it shouldn’t disqualify anyone from anything.
This isn’t a purity test. He knew

Less thought was put into choosing that tattoo than the next bar to visit.
Then don’t wait until years later when you’re called out in the media to remove it. He knew, he kept lying about it.
Whatever, be mad forever then. I hope your perfect lefty savior shows up for you. If we’re lucky, maybe we’ll still be able to vote when they do.
Anything is better than a Nazi, I’m not asking for perfection
Except he’s very clearly not a Nazi.
If he’s not a Nazi he’s too stupid to be a politician anyway

I’ll take a reformed Nazi over Janet Mills or Susan Collins.
Removing a tattoo is very expensive and very painful. Anyone would put it off for as long as possible.
Then at least don’t lie about it

No, you can pick a candidate to vote for who isn’t a Nazi at all, and if there is none maybe you should get somebody else to run
There is no such thing as “the better Nazi to vote for”. “Lesser evil” only works when you don’t have the option to replace the evil.

Yes and there’s the problem, they shouldn’t believe him, because either he’s secretly a Nazi or he’s actually just too damn stupid to be a politician
You don’t accidentally get Nazi tattoos because you have to search to find tattoo artists willing to do them
