UPDATE: During a video on X, Graham Platner has resigned.
Most people understand the dynamic with Graham Platner has come down to price. How much are the Communists going to have to pay to get the Nazi rapist to leave the Maine senatorial race.
There are various storylines surrounding the negotiations [Example Here], but the bottom line is how much can Platner get for his exit? Former Communist presidential candidate Bernie Sanders cashed out for a couple of new houses and various indulgences within the party apparatus. Sanders is also reportedly counseling Platner on terms.
Platner has until Monday at 5:00pm to exit so that Democrats can appoint a replacement candidate.
…”Two sources say Katz has told allies he believes Platner should to leave the race before the 5 p.m. Monday deadline to withdraw from the ballot — but wants the exit to be on the candidate’s terms.
“It’s quite clear that he’s [Platner’s] gonna have to get out of the race,” a second source told The Post. “Their reluctance here … is a result of their larger political project, trying to get these types of candidates into places of power. {SOURCE}

Joshua Chamberlain is rolling in his grave.
Welp, if the going rate is two houses and a garillion $ book deal for President, I would think one house, a new oyster boat and some sort of amnesty for the rapey stuff would be a strong opener.
It’s a big club, and we ain’t in it.
Wasn’t that one Mansion for letting Hillary have the nomination and one Mansion for letting Sippy Cup do the same? I think the indulgences were squeezed out of Sippy Cup.
Wait, hang on. Are you telling me the democratic socialist party and rinofopm is about money and not F’ing equality and principle?
I am at a loss of words.
Edited to include their counterparts on the other side of the F’ing aisle.
The Democrat party have dug their own grave.
All of them have seats at the banquet of consequences now being served.
I hope Platner, maître’d, tells them all to get stuffed.
Platner needs to consult with Bernie Sanders (DSA-Vt) who did the same for Presidential Primaries in 2016, 2020 and 2024.
Bernie always screaming against the Oligarchs while becoming an Oligarch.
Why isn’t he in jail awaiting trial for rape and kidnapping?
because he’s a democrat
Is Susan Rice on deck? 🤔

How long till that Henna cover-up starts to wear off?
I don’t understand the dynamic here.
Sure, sure, I get he’s soooo odious and Maine Dems need to set terms to oust. I get that.
What I don’t get is WHY. I thought the play here was put a stinker in to assure Susan Collin’s reelection.
Are the communists thinking they have enough power now to oust old Guard players like Collins and Schumer Jeffries and even Thune and other more stealth traitors?
Not getting the change of heart on stinker Platner.
Is the SOB taking the whole of the F’ing democratic socialist party with him?
The real question is not who replaces Platner …. it is what key votes are coming up in the senate and what else will Susan Collins have to do keep her seat.
Thune is the mediator between Collins and DNCC … just as McConnell was 6-years ago.
