Graham Platner isn’t perfect. However he’s traveled the state and country demanding a huge change in government business as usual. He is forcefully speaking truth to power and I think the powerful will do anything to stop him and the political movement he champions.

I believe Democrats are easily manipulated and the Republicans know that. If the focus is not on Graham’s populist agenda, but rather smearing his character then the political business as usual will win. Democrats stop allowing this to happen!

It seems any allegations against Graham Platner are being treated as true. I believe he’s innocent until proven guilty, remember? Please don’t be shocked that powerful people will do anything to stop Graham’s populist movement.
