Fetterman also has brain damage. People keep ignoring this when framing anyone who hasn’t planned to be in Congress since they were 8 as a sleeper centrist.
The excitement was muted quite a bit by his stroke. At the time of the primary and for most of the general it wasn’t clear if he was even going to be able to serve. He didn’t even do unprepared speaking until a month before the election. There was definitely some campaigning that Giselle puppeting him or a special election was better than 6 years of Oz.
But you’re right that pre-strike lots of people were excited about his likely win.
In a vacuum, sure, it would be a weird thing to be paranoid about.
But we’re not in a vacuum, are we? There are several massive red flags about this guy, including gleeful murder of brown people and a fucking Nazi tattoo on his chest.
So forgive me if I’m a little skeptical when he says left-adjacent things.
it’s ok dude i know you’re not serious comparing Platner with someone with literal brain damage anyway, no need to dig into the weeds on more logical fallacies from that point
Which is why I’ve been saying that I would hold my nose and vote for him if I were in Maine. Because I understand that “this guy might not be Nazi” is still better than literally any Republican.
Just like John Fettermam was
Fetterman wore the costume of a populist. Platner walks the walk of of a populist.
Fetterman won because he wasn’t doctor Oz.
Fetterman also has brain damage. People keep ignoring this when framing anyone who hasn’t planned to be in Congress since they were 8 as a sleeper centrist.
What does this even mean, he’s never held public office.
If you really want to go by the man’s actions, there is plenty of info out there about the awful shit that he got up to in Iraq.
Not true. People were absolutely excited about Fettermam winning the nomination.

jfc is this your line of logic? that’s about as sound as “hitler was a vegetarian so all vegetarians are nazis” lol
Yeah that’s not anything at all like what I said.

Move the goalposts harder daddy
“That’s your logic?”
“No, that’s a conclusion. This is my logic.”
“You’re moving the goalpost!!1!”

Are you okay? I’m not even the person you think you’re replying to.
Fetterman took AIPAC money. Platner didn’t. Also the alternative is literally Susan Collins
