Watch Democrat Senators Squirm When Asked About Graham Platner of Maine (VIDEO)

Graham Platner, the scandal plagued Democratic Socialist (communist) running for a U.S. Senate seat in Maine, has put Democrats into an impossible position. They want so badly to support him but they also know that he has the potential to be an anchor around the neck of the party.

They’ve stood by him through the scandal over his Nazi tattoo and multiple problematic Reddit posts. They’ve tried to spin every which way, saying that he’s a different person now, and that they believe in his personal redemption. Of course, they would never show this kind of understanding to a Republican, but they don’t care if people see through all of this, they just want to win the senate.

The funny thing is that now that Platner’s candidacy is becoming truly toxic, you can see the shift in them when they’re asked about him on TV.

In this clip, Senator Ed Markey of Massachusetts is asked repeatedly if he is endorsing Platner’s campaign and each time, instead of saying that he endorses him, he just says that he believes Platner is running on all of the right issues.

Watch:

CNN: Will you endorse Graham Platner’s campaign?

MARKEY: “I am convinced that he is running on all of the right issues…”

CNN: “So why not say that you endorse him?”

MARKEY: “He is on a pathway to victory…”

Senator Chris Coons of Delaware was asked about Platner on CNN and made sure to clarify that he does not know Platner but wants to give him some measure of grace – again, Democrats would never show this kind of restraint if Platner was a Republican.

Senator Elizabeth Warren has not only endorsed Plater, she called him her kind of guy. Now that he is drowning in scandals, she was asked about her support for him and immediately tried to spin her answer to make it all about Trump. This is so pathetic.

Elizabeth Warren won’t answer questions on Graham Platner.

These people are trying to defend the indefensible and they know it.

Platner is damaged goods. He really belongs nowhere near the United States Senate.
