thanks Tara for keeping us apprised of all the issues. Mr. Platner should just step aside and deal with his issues. I would vote for the devil to get Susan Collins out of the mix, but this sexual assaults is too much to stomach. I believe all these women. Some folks think it is just a set up, He appears to have anger issues. I like the man's policies. but his alleged character disqualifies him. I sound as if he will be staying in the race. His drinking and PTSD is not an excuse to molest anyone.. Don't give us the what about isms. The democrats have got to be held to a higher standard than the president of the USA.

They are always innocent, aren’t they? He needs to go.

Am wondering about the veracity of the accusations; find it hard to believe he knew about all the accusations and was naive to their political cost.

Believe his aggression towards

“the billionaires” has a political cost, this may be it, which is not to deny that all the accusations could absolutely be true. This is going to be the bleeding of the dems going forward. Just like the senator Al Franken from Minnesota resigned because of make lewd sexual insinuations. Relinquishing the right to choice for millions of women is a balanced price to pay for indignant righteousness. In my experience anybody can make accusations about anything. It seems like some vetting of the accusers would be

prudent.

The republicans have no problem promoting two accused sexual abusers to the less than Supreme Court not to mention an adjudicated rapist as president that 77M knuckle draggers voted for; Platner is far from a perfect candidate I guess we’ll just have to put up with six more years of Susan Collins, and whatever further slide towards fascism; it’s good to know we inhabit the moral high ground while we stare through the chain link

fences of the internment camps.

Do rapists have shame?

He has always been questionable; from the sex pest and his bad tattoos

I have to commend you @tara, I’m only a free subscriber and I have zero interest in Epstein mess but I’ve watched your coverage on Platner and you were early and consistent.

Several people have come forward

How many years must go by before bad past behavior can be forgiven? Is a candidate who has had past problems but has since changed disqualified forever?

The girlfriend rape was ~5 years ago. If it was you (or your daughter), would you say let bygones be bygones?

Please, a transcript!

She said they’re under “Live” on the YouTube channel and that good news! everyone is free to use them to reenact episodes of the show in their home or anywhere in public. I’m currently rehearsing the role of Marlin Stutzman to perform for people lingering around the food truck down the way but if you want to just read them quietly around your house my understanding is that’s okay too.

Did powered within the dem party orchestrate this to position the person they really want?

Hopefully he withdraws in the next day or so. I’ve heard people saying they want Patrick Dempsey to run but I can’t see Senator McDreamy becoming an actual thing.
