Remember the days of “Trump should have his phone taken away”?

This was the halcyon period where the media thought that if you just deplatformed Donald Trump and stopped him from tweeting, the world would solve itself. Suddenly, he’d stop being president. People would listen to them again. None of this direct communications garbage, no talking like a regular human being instead of a wonk-programmed AI agent.

This culminated inTrump’s ban from basically every social media platformin the wake of the Capitol incursion of Jan. 6, 2021, which completely cowed the 45th president and precluded him from realistically seeking another term at the office. Oh, wait, whoops!

Anyway, I mention this because the Democrats’ hopes for retaking both houses of Congress this fall rest heavily on a guy who reallyshouldhave had his phone taken away a long time ago. Funnily enough,nobody is around to condemn him.

Just this past weekend, it was reported that Platner’s campaign knewhe had sexted with other womenwho were not his wife and that the senatorial candidate had an account featuring an avatar of him shirtless on an app primarily usedby teens.

A sexually suggestive Kik profile linked to Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner is still active — despite his campaign saying he deleted the app long ago.

This comes after the Democrats were getting buyers’ remorse over Platner, who became the de facto nominee for the state most likely to swing to the Democrats after Gov. Janet Mills exited the campaign. At the time, it was already known Platner had a Nazi tattoo and had made some crude social media posts.
