Platner looks less like a Maine workingman and more like another Democrat mythology project: prep-school background, family money, murky business story, radical online history, socialist branding, and a carefully curated “hardscrabble” costume. The VA disability issue deserves respectful handling because veterans can be disabled and still productive. But the public has every right to know whether Platner’s benefits involve unemployability restrictions, whether his oyster business actually supports him, why his wife draws campaign and business compensation, and whether his public image matches reality. Democrats would vaporize a Republican over this. Instead, their leaders are lining up behind Oyster Boy. That tells you plenty.
A lot of unanswered questions about his work and finances. No idea if he even gets paid by the oyster farm or has an ownership stake. He is not listed on the Maine business entity search for the company.
Excellent and much appreciated overviews of several complex topics - much appreciated. Just an FYI- the photo identified as Platner's Totenkopf tattoo isn't . A Totenkopf is a skull and crossbones. This is a photo of the tattoo he used to cover it up. It's a version of a Celtic or Nordic design featuring Fenrir, a monstrous wolf with uncontrollable strength. It was distorted somewhat in order to better disguise the original tattoo.
Planter's disability taking ten years to be finalized is not unusual. Many veterans wait years for their BOVA case to be processed. My case took ten years after I lost my job due to my disability before I received 100%. This is why so many veterans lose homes. I would like to know what his benefits are though. I am unemployable due to my disability and cannot work with this classification.
Great piece but that’s not the Nazi tattoo Platner chose and proudly carried for 18 years. The one on the photo you show here is the one he just covered the Nazi tattoo with, trying to hide it for last minute political interests. Shameful.
Hilarious that Democrats are refusing to extend FISA because the guy Trump appointed for DNI is not qualified - when has any democrat, including Platner, ever been qualified for the office they are seeking or appointed to - this from the party of DEI

If Swalwell had to be taken down, what is it about Platner that makes him a keeper?
I bet they get him past the primary and make him drop out. Then the Democratic Party can select anyone to replace him.
Sort of a repeat of the Biden-Harris playbook! I can't wait to see what reprobate is up next.
