Even if climate change is real, smart farmers have locked in their rain contracts with God a long time ago.

There is one person and one person only to blame for the disaster unfolding in Maine: Graham Cunningham Platner.

This asshole knew who he was and what he’d done. He put himself forward anyway. He lied—over and over—to the public, to his supporters, to the media. He asked people to prostitute themselves for him and cover for him. He encouraged the Bernie Bro cult that coalesced around him.

Now everyone who went out on a limb for the guy is cut off. The Maine Democratic Party is in an impossible situation. And Susan Collins is seventeen weeks from her election and she doesn’t even have an opponent.

Think about that for a minute: In the single best chance to flip a Republican Senate seat, Democrats don’t even have a candidate.

This wasn’t a Neera Tanden–engineered coup. Graham Platner did it.

"He commented more than once that, 'You know, Hitler did some good things, too,'" Kelly recalled to The Times. Kelly said he would usually quash the conversation by saying "nothing (Hitler) did, you could argue, was good," but that Trump would occasionally bring up the topic again.

That’s one opinion, for sure.

Anyone still using the “Bernie Bro” trope automatically loses credibility.

Platner either knew he had skeletons or was lying to himself.

The party apparatus should have vetted him. It’s not that hard

It's a smaller tent than it used to be.

According to the people behind the vetting, Platner satisfied their thesis.

Most people have skeletons. Jim Jordan covered up youth rape for Christ’s sake.

The NYT covered up the other women they had talked to and ran a hit piece on the conservative woman instead.
