Platner’s Campaign Just Collapsed — and Democrats Are Running for Cover
from The Gerry Callahan Show · host Newsmax Podcasts
- The episode opens with Graham Platner’s campaign in total free fall, arguing that Democrats ignored a mountain of ugly behavior until a rape allegation finally made him impossible to defend. - A major focus is the speed of the Democratic collapse around Platner, with Cory Booker, Chuck Schumer, Ro Khanna, Ed Markey, Maura Healey, Seth Moulton, and others all pulling support after spending months looking the other way. - The show argues the media did not simply expose Platner but managed the timing of his downfall, claiming outlets moved only when Democrats still had enough time to force him out and replace him on the ballot. - Another key theme is the allegation itself, with the accuser’s account presented as credible, detailed, and especially damaging because she shares Platner’s politics and says she stayed quiet in part because she believed in his cause. - The episode also targets Tim Walz for pardoning an illegal immigrant convicted of sexually assaulting a 10-year-old girl, holding it up as a concrete example of Democratic leaders protecting predators while pretending to occupy the moral high ground.
