    Yeah, I’m tired of seeing this so much. Like I feel like there probably is something a little off or fishy about his story that he really didn’t realize until he was running for office, but not that he’s secretly a Nazi, and more along the lines of be knew and kept it cuz it was a funny story or something.

    Either way, he’s by far the best candidate in his primary and general elections so it doesn’t really matter, and he is a great candidate for his state.

          The one that would empower Maine, and horizontalize power. Too bad he’s only applying for a Senate seat. A pretty distant and populist position if you ask Maine.

            I assume you mean David Costello?

            From what I have seen he’s somewhat similar in positions and such to platner, maybe a bit less populist/leftist than platner. He entered the race a little late tho, and got less attention. He also has more experience in public office and is more of a regular politician tho, but that can either be a good or a bad thing depending how you look at it.

            Janet Mills is a just a Zionist aipac shill tho

                Broadly more or less yea? I haven’t seen the specific thing you linked before though, and also you were quite vague about what you meant in your last comment.

                I would appreciate if you could explain a bit more what you are meaning, and educate me a little.

                  Is there a candidate in the amerikkka giving free ghost bolt cutters, dynamite, autoriffles, body armor, ammunition, etc. to the people of Maine?
                  If not, you have a populist. Because a true “leftist” empowers the people.
