And as Platner continues to strive to climate the storms introduced about in half by revelations about the Nazi tattoo, the sexting scandal, and the home abuse allegations from a former girlfriend, we’re studying that a girl who was a key determine in getting the phrase out about the inappropriate harassment/assault allegations against Eric Swalwell – which led to his resignation from Congress – now has her sights on Platner:

This is what is actually plain. Graham Platner and his crew are utilizing marketing campaign sources to suppress these tales. There are a number of allegations of violence against girls & Graham Platner’s legal crew is probably going working to strangle the tales.

Rumors swirled that the New York Times story quoting his ex-girlfriends was not more intensive and did not embody allegations that had been rumored to be more disturbing because Platner’s legal crew had gotten to them in the 24-hour period the paper gave them to reply before the story went live.

It’s unclear as to when or even if these allegations will see the gentle of day. But if they do, count on them to hit someday after July 14th, which is the last day Platner has to drop out and for Maine Democrats to have the opportunity to legally exchange him with another nominee.
