Sefton: sefton at cutjibnewsletter.com | Graham Platner Officially Withdraws From Position as Sturmgruppefuhrer of the Maine Democrat PartyI saw, I think, Chicks on the Right discussing Platner's plans from the future. They think -- and I think they're right -- that he's going to immediately cash in by starting a (get this) podcast, and he's chumming the water with antisemitic conspiracy theories to get the reliably unemployed-and-available-to-watch Tuq'r Qarlson/Candace Owens/Me-Again Kelly Nazi audience. He blames unnamed "large forces" conspiring to drive him out of the race by spreading lies. If it's a lie, why drop out? Maybe because he's been told the Racicot rape allegation will be the first, not the last, rape allegation coming. Bear in mind, Racicot is a leftist who agreed with Graham Platner politically. She had an incentive to make her allegation public before the deadline to withdrawal. The Republican Party, on the other hand, has been sitting on its oppo until after the deadline. More was coming. I hope it still all comes out. Because, seriously, I agree with the Woke Left: #PunchANazi.And yet you're dropping out, as if they have you dead to rights. There is no other way to view it, Herr Rapist. "It most certainly is not. We're not doing it because of the allegations. We're doing it because of the structures that are being taken away from us by those in power," he said.He means the Democrat's senate campaign slush fund announced it would spend zero dollars to support Platner's campaign. But he still has a lot of supporters -- and anyway, the party committees actually don't spend very much on most candidates. That's why Mitch McConnell was always recruiting liberal millionaires to run for Senate, he wanted them to be self-financing (and also, liberal RINOs). Pennsylvania Democratic Sen. John Fetterman blasted Platner after his announcement. "The trash took itself out tonight," he bluntly told Fox News. "Now finally people in Maine have a chance to vote on someone that's not a total piece of trash." Just hours after the latest rape claims, Schumer and Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY) issued a joint statement denouncing Platner. "The allegations reported today are incredibly disturbing -- violence, abuse and sexual assault are absolutely unacceptable," it said. "Graham Platner needs to immediately withdraw as the Democratic nominee for Senate and allow Maine Democrats the opportunity to choose a new candidate who can defeat Susan Collins. The DSCC [Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee] will not invest in the Maine Senate race if Platner remains on the ballot." ... Platner lashed out at those who abandoned him and pulled his financial support. "We are going to lose our ability to fundraise. We are going to lose our ability to access voter data. We are going to lose all of the things that any campaign needs on the basic level simply to function," he bemoaned. "Larger organizations, the national level party, the bigger donor networks -- they have all committed to spending no money in this race if I'm in it," Platner continued. "They would rather see Susan Collins win than have me be the next senator from Maine," he said.People were unimpressed by this High-T Super-Male's whiny, self-pitying Twitter Flounce. The failed candidate uploaded the "woe is me" clip announcing his withdrawal after a woman he previously dated, Jenny Racicot, publicly alleged that he drunkenly raped her at her Maine home in 2021 despite her repeated pleas to stop. He denied the allegation. "This video is more embarrassing than the Nazi tattoo," Emily Zanotti, a friend of one Platner's exes accusing him of misconduct, tweeted. "Graham Platner announces the real victim in all of this is Graham Platner," right-wing influencer Western Lensman posted on X. "Saved you 11 minutes." "TLDR: Campaign suspended and a whole bunch of bluster," read a post from the Chicks on the Right X account. ... The failed candidate's lack of self-awareness throughout the video, as well as his insistence that his ex-girlfriend was lying about being raped by him, left many stunned and puzzled. "It is not the establishment's fault that your ex lover accused you of raping her," political consultant Micah Erfan noted. "Narcissistic sociopath," conservative radio talk show host Larry O'Connor said in response to Platner's video.

As I read what he said, he's not dropping out so much as "suspending" his campaign. While usually there is no difference, that might not be true here. Why? Because they still need to find someone to replace him.
I don't know what Maine law is on exactly what the candidate needs to do to be replaced. I don't know if "suspending" a campaign -- as opposed to formally withdrawing your candidacy -- is enough to trigger a replacement. We'll see. I would not surprise me at all if this vile leech comes back next week and says "ha ha ha, you stupid fuckers. You can't replace me, I didn't formally drop out!"

I think the so-called "democratic socialists" are the up and commers. They're not real vocal about much else other than the "social" part of their platform.

I wonder what Platner got to drop out?
A nice title and a cushy 'job'? If he's smart he'd get a signing bonus. It's not like he didn't have some pull here. He could have gone on a vacation for a week, ignored social media and started his losing campaign to flame the Dems when he got back. So, payoff!!??!!

the left handled the entire Platner situation pretty well... he had questionable past, but was running as a fantastic progressive candidate for Maine. it shows the humanity of the left. As Hasan says a lot, something along the lines of “you hate me but I still want you to have healthcare”
What a gut punch fr. There's no way the Republican oppo would not have found this. Shame on him for saying there's nothing else Plattner's represented a complete failure of the democratic party. Mainers were willing to vote for Plattner's platform despite his red flags, not because of them. This would not be a conversation if Schumer's priority was winning the senate majority instead of beating his left flank. Platner’s appeal was that he was winning. Now that he is dropping out, we can shut up about it and get behind somebody else who has a chance. But if Susan Collins keeps her seat because of this, that is a disaster. Troy Jackson can win. If it isn't him, Maine isn't serious So 600 Democratic party establishment insiders are going to pick the candidate? Mainers will be pissed. It's Biden/Harris all over again.

2) They really thought rapey neo-NAZI would appeal to otherwise right leaning voters in Maine to more then make up for lost anti-rape and anti-NAZI voters
Posted by: 18-1 at July 09, 2026 12:24 PM (sKqQm) It's this. I said this over the last few days: Platner was their attempt to butch up the brand. They desperately wanted to change the direction they see their brand as going as just rapey twinks and child molesters. We have seen elements of this with that retarded 'expert' who was a woman who was supposed to be telling them how to appeal to straight dudes again. At least theoretically, Platner was a more genuine version of this. But he's also a fake in that he is a degenerate (and I do not mean sexual, per se) version of masculinity. He's needlessly combative, fragile ego, pampered and immature. THEN there is the sexual stuff. This is true for all of the progressive male icons (Hasan is another example in almost exactly the same mold.) The thing is their versions are missing the essential aspects of masculinity (Stoicism, wisdom, calmness, decisiveness. Gravitas.) They are without the things that actually appeal to dudes.

We’ve all had our fun at Platner’s expense but we should remember that there’s a human behind the face we see in videos of rallies and political ads, a human who’s been humiliated on the public stage and exposed for all of his worst qualities, and then we laugh and hope for more personal humiliation for him because he’s revolting and a communist and communists aren’t people

I heard an interesting theory:
The DNC knew about Platner. They were just hoping you wouldn't learn what they knew about him. And the theory behind this is: The DNC likes to have leverage over the people they seat in Congress and other places. So, dirt on Platner, in this theory, is a positive. Posted by: Axeman at July 09, 2026 01:05 PM (Fi81e) I don't think it's a theory, and I don't think it requires any blackmail follow-up. Of COURSE they knew about Platner. He was an out and proud Nazi. His social media posts were all public. His Kik account was public and active. They all knew from the very beginning. It's not that they wanted leverage. It's that they truly believe that's how conservative men are. This led them to believe Platner would appeal to conservative men.

Which is plenty gross in the summer. It would never occur to me to think, "This is the perfect time to ease my sexual tension." Which reminds me that in a college letter to my parents I mentioned "sexual tension" about a cousin going schizo and laughed hysterically when I read it again last year. I had no idea, first of all, what I was talking about. And I assume it was not read at the dinner table with my 5yr old brother (who could not yet read cursive).

I think the most amusing thing about the whole Graham Platner ordeal is that he was aspiring to a position of the US Senate, which is a "representative" seat. The original concept or idea being that an elected Senator being one of two individuals from your State being representative of everyone in that state.
So, essentially, a Nazi loving, probable rapist, definite misogynist, porta-potty loving, butt rape dominatrix, lying lay-a-bout, communist and/or socialist thought he was a good match to represent the people of Maine.

"They didn't have him dead to rights, they just cut a check."
Since the Maine Democratic Party said they were going to be transparent about the process, don't they have an obligation to tell us how much? I've been wondering how much I could get in Platner's position - would they go for $10,000,000? Posted by: CTHillary, dead but dreaming at July 09, 2026 01:27 PM (GMWTj) 395
It's my understanding that the actual membership of the DSA is very heavily white and heavily credentialed.
It's white progressives who are downwardly mobile because their promises of sinecures did not come to fruition. DSA types keep doing really badly with black and minority voters in the primaries (Maine has very few black people). That's going to cause issues for them. Posted by: TheJamesMadison, discovering British horror with Hammer Films at July 09, 2026 01:18 PM (va4Cb) The original push for revolution in Russia was from the petit nobility, professionals and university intellectuals who wanted Russia to be more like their European progressive cousins, because they were ashamed at the backwardness of the country and the disapproval of the pre-WWI European petit nobility, professionals, and university intellectuals the Russian intellectual class sought as their peers.

It's my understanding that the actual membership of the DSA is very heavily white and heavily credentialed.
It's white progressives who are downwardly mobile because their promises of sinecures did not come to fruition. I saw actual data last week that DSA leadership tends to be almost 100% white women looking to date Palestinians in Ireland. DSA *candidates* are hand-picked for maximum virtue signalling: Muslim and/or black and ideally women. Platner was not an official DSA candidate, as I understand it; they refused to back him because Pale Penis Person.
