Uncovering the Controversies Behind Graham Platner’s Campaign 🚨

Graham Platner’s progressive, populist campaign has been plagued by a plethora of scandals. Even though the elected officials who’ve endorsed him (e.g. Bernie Sanders) are sticking with him, some on the online left are jumping ship out of concern that Platner could turn out to be another John Fetterman. In this video we’ll talk about the controversy, the left’s reaction, and whether or not Mike will continue to support Platner.
