that was pretty good nice, simple messaging and tackling some of the most pressing issues in this country sounds like he actually believes in something and is willing to fight
Agreed. People are burned out on pussyfoot tittybaby boomer democrats. Blue dog democrat is the way to go in the modern political climate. Fa? Fo. It’s how Fetterman got elected. It’s how I’ve considered a platform if I were to run for office.
Honestly. . . .they simply have to be the COMPLETE OPPOSITE of what ever the hell Schumer is Rocket River
Hope he wins. But I will say everyone is anti-establishment until they become part of the establishment. BTW you have never had a good oyster until you have had northeastern oysters. You can keep your lobsters. Give me rock crab claws a dozen littleneck clams and Wellfleet oysters. Extra butter please.
Obviously the Democrat party needs to move towards the center to build a coalition to win... and the men need to sound like men. Why are liberal men so effeminate? GOOD DAY
Seems like a good guy. Not too Fetterman, which I like... AI Overview Graham Platner, a U.S. Senate candidate in Maine, has publicly stated that he believes Israel is committing genocide in Gaza with funding from the U.S. . His stance is a central part of his campaign to challenge incumbent Republican Senator Susan Collins. Key points on Platner's position on Israel: Accusation of genocide: Platner has repeatedly described Israel's military actions in Gaza as "genocide". In August 2025, he posted on social media that "There is a genocide happening in Palestine". Opposition to U.S. funding: He has condemned the United States for financially supporting Israel, saying the U.S. "is funding" the alleged genocide. Opposition to arms sales: Platner has stated that he would have supported a resolution to block arms sales to Israel. Rejection of pro-Israel lobby support: He has rejected support from the pro-Israel lobby, specifically noting that he will not accept funding from the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC). Broader foreign policy critique: His views on Israel are part of a broader critique of U.S. foreign policy, which he describes as "endless wars" that prioritize foreign governments over the interests of American citizens.
Quite possibly. I don't fully trust anyone these days. (Including guys I hadn't heard of until ten minutes ago!)
I don't think it's tough enough, actually. Kind of what I was saying in the 2024 elections. Every single democrat campaign ad should have had videos from Jan 6th and someone saying "is this what you want for your country?"
The... uh.. "common man" for Congress thing has a certain charm to it but ... yea.. I don't really want the common man legislating. Certainly the conventional blood blue Ivy league law school "conventional" politicians can be/get weird but I'm much more skeptical of the "common man" running for office types... the Lauren Boebert/Marjorie Taylor Greene/John Fetterman types. They seem to go off the rails at a higher rate. Odds the guy whose highest educational obtainment is a high school diploma, didn't get married until he was 40 and has had PTSD works out? Idk, color me skeptical.
Doesn’t matter what side you’re on, this is the person people want Problem with dems is they are a party of ineffective p*****s
