Speaker 1: Good morning, cooner. Contrary. Okay, my friends, we are now watching history in the making, because what is taking place in the state of Maine is really now becoming in many ways the battle front in the war, not just over the future of the Democratic Party, but really control of Congress in November. And as many of you know, Graham Platner, who, by the way, is a complete phony. The media keeps saying he's this oyster farmer, working class oyster farmer. No, he was born with a silver spoon in his mouth. He comes from wealth, he comes from privilege. He's a complete fraud. But let that go. The Democrats now are putting him up as their nominee for the US Senate in Maine, and they believe that if they can beat Susan Collins. And by the way, Platner is leading Susan Collins depending on the poll you look at. Some polls have him up by seven other polls have him up by eight even nine percent. So, as we think stand right now, unbelievably, incredibly shockingly, he is on a path to victory. Now it's not just that this would be a major pickup for the Democrats in order to retake not just the House, but in this case the US Senate. This is the race. The Democrats believe that if Platner knocks off Susan Collins and the election then turns out the way they want it to turn out in other pivotal races, this will be the decisive race, the decisive seat that will tip the balance of power from a a Republican held Senate to Chuck Schumer being the next Senate majority leader and the Democrats running essentially the table having control of both the House and the Senate. So in terms of a political race, all the marbles are at stake when it comes to the race in Maine. But what is also happening in Maine is we are now seeing the future shape of the Democratic Party take place right in front of our eyes. Platner now has emerged as the AOC, the mom Donnie, and many are now saying the young Bernie Sanders of the Senate wing of the Democratic Party. And this is why the Democrats and again incredibly, despite all of the baggage that now Platner is bringing with him, he has become to me radioactive, toxic, downright dangerous, and more keeps coming out day after day after day. It doesn't matter. They're doubling, tripling, quadrupling down. I've never seen this before. AOC is not just endorsing him, she's now campaigning for him. Bernie the same thing. Elizabeth Warren now has not only endorsed him, campaigned for him, She's now saying, quote, he's her kind of man. The Democrats are now grooming him and looking at him as their future socialist superstar. The air apparent to the mantle of Bernie Sanders, and they see in him the final piece along with Mamdanie. In New York City, AOC obviously on the house side to a new socialist, leftist, Marxist, very anti Israel, anti Semitic Democratic Party. So this new radical, extreme Democratic party is now being born in front of our eyes, and the Democratic Socialists of America who are all in on Graham Platner, say that Platner is the man who will lead them to the Promised Land. He is the model candidate for them in terms of changing not just the Democratic Party, but changing the future of America. And with all of this now, with all of this massive money and political firepower that is now being put into Maine on behalf of Platner we have to ask ourselves who is this man? And every day it's a new scandal every day, And as I wrote on X last night, we have to start asking ourselves, in all seriousness, where do the Democrats find these guys? How the hell can Graham Platner be a candidate for the US Senate of any major party. In my view, he is objectively, just objectively, maybe the worst candidate ever to run in at least the last fifty, if not one hundred years. For eighteen years, eighteen years, he had a Nazi tattoo, and not just any Nazi tattoo, an SS tattoo stamped right on his chest. And he only covered it up last year when he made a decision to run for higher office, to run for the Senate. So for eighteen years he was essentially a Nazi. He had a Nazi tattoo. He was comfortable with the Nazi tattoo until realizing, well, if I run for political office, it's going to become a liability, so let me cover it up. But that's just a tip of the iceberg. He is an avowed a self described communist his words, a Jew hater, an anti Semite, a supporter of Hamas Hamas who has repeatedly cheered when Hamas has killed either Jews or Israeli citizens. Yesterday, it just came out from another one of his podcasts that he now denies the Armenian genocide. Now suddenly, now he's a genocide denier. Now it's come out. We talked about this regarding Purple Heart recipients, American soldiers who risked everything in the fight against the Taliban, and he went on social media platforms and he mocked them and degraded them and openly said that they should be murdered and killed by the Taliban. He literally is calling for fellow soldiers to be killed. And now, by the way, he's now revealed in all kinds of emails and text messages that he has a sexual fetish for public porta potties. I'm sorry, it's six o'clock in the morning. I don't mean you to throw up your breakfast. But he has a thing for going to public port The guy's a sick pervert. Well now he's embroiled in a sexting scandal. Like every day it's something with this guy. So now the latest is this according to his own wife, his own wife who he married apparently three years ago. When Graham Platner decided to throw his hat in the ring and he was about to get Bernie Sanders' coveted endorsement along with Elizabeth Warren, she said that she wanted the campaign to know anything that could be used against him that she thought could be damaging to him to the campaign, so to make sure he wasn't wasting his time. Could he survive a scandal about his extramarital affair, and so they put together a research opposition opposition research on him, saying, let's see what's the worst that we can find out about him, and let's see if it's enough, if the baggage is not too much, he can survive and will just go on and back him. So she admitted to them that during the first months of their marriage, so they just basically tied the knot that she found Graham Platner sexting with at least twelve women, twelve women sexually explicit messages that he sent to multiple women. He was on a messaging app, a personal messaging app called kick. Honestly, I've never heard of it before. Ki K Kick ki K. It's a hookup site. It's where you go to hook up with women or girls or teenagers for a quickie, for a quick sexual encounter. It is a messaging app that is heavily used by pedophiles. Pedophiles, And now this story has been broken by the Wall Street Journal and other media outlets. Graham Platner sent his wife to do a video to say that their marriage is strong. Okay, I really would like to load up the lines as quickly as possible, and I want to ask you, the great audience of Kooner Country, really two key questions. One, will Graham Platner win? Do you think he will beat Rhino Republican Susan Collins. Now, remember this about and I'm no fan of Susan Collins, as you know. I've been very critical of her, as I've been of all the Rhinos. But this is a milk toast rhino that we're talking about. This is no maga Republican, this is no maga conservative. I'm talking about Susan Collins. And so I'm looking at all of these liberals, all of these leftists, all of these Democrats, and you're willing to vote for a monster like Graham Plattner to unseat In many ways she's a centrist maybe even you look at many of her votes and her views almost center left. She's a liberal Republican, one of the last few liberal Republicans left. I mean, if you know, if you know, it's to me it should be a no brainer in Maine. Not again, not that I like her, but she's infinitely more moderate than almost any other Republican out there. And you're telling me that Democrats have no choice but to vote for this guy. The Naziss tattoo, the porta potties, the sexual fetish, you know, with the porta potties, denying the Armenian genocide, calling for the murder of Jews, an avowed Jew hater and anti Semite, A man who says he's a communist and wants a communist revolution in the United States of America, who, like Mamdani, says it's time to start confiscating private property. By the way, completely wants to reopen the border, just so that you know, utterly reopen the border. In fact, he says what we should do is we should return most I don't know where we're going to live, but he says that we should return most of the land to Native American Indians, So I don't know where that leaves us. But anyway, by the way, a man who says that all white people, all white people are inherently quote racist and stupid, and he's white, so I guess he's racist and stupid. Like I could go on and on and on. I mean, it doesn't end with this guy. And now you know, he's caught in this massive sexting scandal where he's been on this caught having an account for apparently for years, whereby he's been hooking up or sexting with sextion explicit messages on this hookup site at least with a dozen women. And he's got a photo image that accompanies the account, whereby, I don't know if you've seen it. It's disgusting, it's gross, But it's a mirror selfie of him bare chested with just a towel around his waist. But you don't see his face. You just see his body with all of his tattoos and a towel wrapped around his waist as he's trying to solicit women. I assume they're women, because that's the other thing. Now I think, Look, there's something about this that doesn't smell right. If you know anything about kick kik, that's the messaging app. It is heavily frequented by pedophiles. It's known as a pedo app. Now, I'm not saying he's a pedophile. We don't know, But I don't know if he's into let's say, very young women or they happen to be underage women. But I'm telling you, if you're on Kick, there's a lot of pedophiles on Kick. Okay, a lot of the Jeffrey Epstein types are on Kick. And this guy's been caught in a massive sex thing scandal that his own wife brought up to the campaign saying, you know, I just want to make sure it's even worth our time for Graham to run, because you know, I want you to know this is probably gonna come out. And do you think politically, is this insurmountable? Is this the kiss of death politically? And so the campaign looked into it, looked into it, and they said, nah, we're gonna say it's a private matter. We think you can survive this politically. Ai ya yai, ai ya yai. And then to add insult to injury and by the way, according to her, I'm just going by what she said. She said he was already sex and going off with other women. She said this was in the first months of the marriage. They've only been married for three years now. Look, I don't want to get into her motives. I kind of feel sorry for her, to be honest. She seems to me very insecure, very dependent, extremely low self esteem. I don't know what she's doing with this loser. But to add insult to injury, he then instead of defending himself. Now he finally said something yesterday, But when this scandal broke over the weekend, he didn't go out. Mister marine, tough guy, multiple tours in I Rock, you know, with his Nazi tattoo, his ss you know, Death's head tattoo. No, no, no, no. He sent his wife out. He sends the wife to do this humiliating video about how she loves him and respects him and they have this phenomenal marriage and even if it's not a good marriage, it's their business, it's no one else's business. And I'm watching this and I'm like, lady, you're the one that brought all this up. You're the one that told the campaign this is how it all got leaked. This all came from you. You're telling everybody to mind their own business. You're the one that was talking about and opened your mouth about it. I'm going to come back with what she said on the other side. And then I want to ask you the ultimate questions. One will Graham Platner win? Will the Democrats vote for this monster? And he is a monster, Okay, So just to lay it out for everybody. A man with a Nazi tattoo for eighteen years who only only covers it up because he's going to run for the Senate. That was only that was last year. A Jew hater who goes on about how evil the Jews are, how celebrating Hamas whenever they murder israelis an anti Semite to his very core. A man who says America needs a quote unquote communist revolution. Is a self avowed, self described communist. And I mean he does interview after an interview and they said, well, what are your politics, he goes, No, I'm a communist. I'm to the left of Bernie Sanders. I'm even more left wing, if it's possible, than Bernie. He is a true believer in the Bolshevik Revolution. He's openly said this. He says private property should be confiscated, period, full stop, and that all American land should be given back to Native American Indians. That the border, we don't have a right to have a border, because we're such an evil, sinful, wicked country that we should allow the entire world to come, basically to conquer the United States. He's openly said this. So he wants to reopen the borders. He wants to completely defund and abolish the police and all prisons, and abolish ice. He has said women who get raped deserve it, women who are sexually assaulted deserve it. That's what he said again and again. Now it came out on a podcast a couple of years ago. He said the Armenian genocide was a hoax, that the Armenian genocide never happened. I mentioned his fetish with these porta potties. He's sick. He brags about how he has a sex addiction and he has to go to these public porta potties. It's a family show, so I'm not going to get too graphic, but the pleasure himself. Now the latest scandal, and by the way, it's just a tip of the iceberg. I could go on and on about this guy. Okay, where do they find he mocks Purple Heart recipients and says that our soldiers should have been killed by the Taliban. And he says he keeps watching videos of our soldiers fighting the Taliban, and he's laughing and saying that mother effort, meaning our guys should have been killed because they were so stupid to confront the Taliban. I mean, this is the kind of where do they find this guy? He's clearly got serious mental problems. He's a complete fraud. He's not an oyster farmer. He comes from money, spoiled He's a spoiled rich kid born into privilege who hates himself clearly. And by the way, he says all white people, as I said earlier, I guess that assumes himself are quote racist and stupid. He's a self hating white American. That's what this guy is, who, by the way, admitted to doing a lot of drugs and a lot of alcohol, and I think it's done some serious damage to his brain. I'm just telling you the truth.
00:21:15
Speaker 2: Now.
00:21:16
Speaker 1: It turns out he's been on this personal hookup site called kick kik, where he's been sending back and forth some of the most disgusting sexually explicit messages to at least a dozen women that his wife caught him in the first couple months of their marriage. She was the one who divulged his to the campaign to the Democrats. And now this scandal has come out. Now I'm telling you, this is the ticking time bomb. Kik look it up. It is a place heavily. It's a messaging app, a personal app where a lot of pedophiles go. It's known as a pedo app. Now, I'm not saying he's a pedophile. We don't know that yet, but I'll bet you dollars to donuts. Those are young women. Those are young women he's been having sexually explicit messages with. And god knows what else if they actually did hook up. So and the question is where they overage or underage? That's now the question. And so this coward, after being caught now in this massive sexting scandal that's embroiling his campaign on top of everything else, sends out his wife and she does a video. So she has to you know, stand by his you know, stand by his stand by her man, stand by his side. And then alone in the video she's now trying to dows or put, you know, throw some water on this burgeoning public firestorm. This is the wife Amy Gertner defending Graham Platner roll cut five, Mike.
00:23:16
Speaker 3: We love each other deeply. So it makes me really angry, disappointed, and I find it really shameful that there's a group of media outlets and people who are willing to spread gossip instead of talking about real issues that Graham is running on, like healthcare and education and childcare.
00:23:50
Speaker 1: Yeah, don't play the victim. You're the one that divulged all of disinformation. You were the one that told the Democrats. You were the one that told the campaign. You were the one that said, no, no, it's on kick. I'll show you exactly. She literally said, it's at least a dozen women, at least twelve.
00:24:10
Speaker 3: Here.
00:24:10
Speaker 1: Here are the messages. Here's one, here's another, here's another. Here's his personal account. Here's the image of him, the selfie, the mirror selfie of that idiot. And by the way, it is so creepy for a man his age to be taking a picture of his chest off of a mirror with the tattoos and just a towel around his waist. E e E. Okay, a married man e E. Now listen to her saying, no, hey, where We've never been more in love, We've never been happier this. I mean, my god, he's my dream husband. Roll cut five a Mike.
00:25:00
Speaker 3: Being married is hard. Being newly married is hard. Being newly married and going through infertility is hard. Being newly married, going through infertility and a Senate campaign is hard. I don't even know if I have the right words to describe. We've been going through.
00:25:22
Speaker 1: So and she's laughing, she's giggling, but you know, she's telling us how hard this is. Well, nobody put a gun to your head. I mean, you don't have to run for the Senate. You know, well, you know marriage is hard. You know being newly married is hard. Well, yeah, if he's keeping, if he's constantly gitting on you, yeah, yeah, I don't think that would be nice. I mean, I know I wouldn't like it if my wife cheated on me, you know. And since you keep bringing up I didn't bring up the infertility, you did, well, maybe you know, maybe if he wasn't running around with other women, maybe you'd be pregnant by now. I'm just hey, I'm just thinking out loud here one more roll cut five B Mike, I.
00:26:09
Speaker 3: Admire the them, So when there are news articles about our marriage.
00:26:16
Speaker 1: It's just extra.
00:26:18
Speaker 3: Can I say that online?
00:26:21
Speaker 2: I hope again.
00:26:22
Speaker 1: Ah yeah, yay, ay ya yay. He's a really low class comeback, and that wife is also very low class. You know, I admire the blank out of him. By that's a classy You're a classy lady. Okay, My friends, Graham Platner now, unbelievably, after scandal after scandal after scandal after scandal, and he is still leading Susan Collins by seven to eight percentage points. Main Democrats are rallying around him even more incredibly. Bernie Sanders now now says he is the future of the Democratic Party. Elizabeth Warren has not just endorsed him, but said he's quote her kind of man AOC. They're all lining up now, mom Donnie saying Graham Platner could be president. That he now, in their view, is carrying the torch of the socialist far left. He is the prince, the heir apparent to Bernie Sanders. They believe he will win, knock off Susan Collins and then deliver the Senate to the Democrats, and that Platner will then become a superstar for the Democratic Party and maybe their standard bearer going into twenty thirty two or twenty thirty six. So they are grooming him to be the next Baroque Obama. I'm not making this up, and yet the baggage keeps piling up, and so I just want to read a couple of a couple of texts, and I want to go right to the phone lines seven zero four seven zero if you want to text into the show. Seven zero four seven zero. This is from uh six one seven Jeff. The Democrats spent years calling Trump a Nazi, and now it seems they support one. Please help me make it make sense. I don't know what else to tell you. I can't. I can't unless it was always, of course what we said, it was projection. They were calling him a Nazi and a fascist because they know deep down there well Nazis and fascists themselves. And not only are they voting for one, but they're championing one. And I've never seen them champion a candidate like this, So what does that tell you? Another one? This is from seven eight, and I've been thinking about this as well. Jeff regarding his wife Amy Gertner, how do you sleep with a Nazi? Well, yeah, but just to add to you what you're saying. And I'm sorry, I don't want to see him a prude, but you know, the guy had an SS tattoo on his freaking chest all. It wasn't like on his back or on his ankle or or whatever on his caff or. So you know, you're with the guy in the bedroom. I don't mean to be graphic, but you're in the You know you're with the guy in the bedroom. You know easier you see the tattoo. The SS tattoo is staring at you the whole time. Yeah, maybe she has one too, Mike says, for all we know, maybe she's got one, and maybe that's how the two of them hit it off. You know, I don't have to say ay yea yay. I'm gonna just say hey, ya yai ai ya, yay okay, one more and then I want to go to the phone lines. This is from seven eight one. Jeff, what are the odds that Platner is quote unquote sexting with his online harem inside the porta pottis?
00:30:19
Speaker 2: Oh?
00:30:22
Speaker 3: You know, what.
00:30:24
Speaker 1: I think you got him seven eight one. I think that's exactly what's happening Tommy in Brockton. So anyway, the guy's a pervert. Hey, let's just put you know me, he's a sick pervert. And by the way, he's doing better with women than men. His base of support are white liberal women, college educated women, and get this one, especially younger college educated liberal women like in their twenties and thirties. What I mean by younger. And when you push them, they go they find I'm not kidding, they find him sexy. I is it the Nazi tattoo?
00:31:13
Speaker 2: Is it?
00:31:13
Speaker 1: The porta party?
00:31:16
Speaker 3: Is it?
00:31:16
Speaker 1: The is it the jew hatred?
00:31:19
Speaker 4: Is it?
00:31:19
Speaker 1: The I mean, seriously, is it when he says women get raped they deserve it?
00:31:24
Speaker 2: Like?
00:31:24
Speaker 1: Well, what is it that he likes to smack women around? That he you know, and that that that turns you on? Like, can somebody explain this to me? Six one seven two six six sixty eight sixty eight Tommy and Brookton, thanks for holding Tommy, and welcome.
00:31:44
Speaker 2: I think what we're seeing here is a generational shift of morality. And you know, I retired as an electrician in September twenty eighteen, I took a dispatch to a job in Medway, Massachusetts. They were doing a powerhouse, gas fired powerhouse, and there were a bunch of guys that had worked at the Salem Powerhouse previous to that job, and they got a They caught an electrician on a job in a porta potty. I don't know his age, but he was punching the clown watching porn on his cell phone. Okay, I was in hysterics when I was told about this. This story gets better. There was also a man and a wife, a couple along with another man that filmed themselves engaging in sex acts and they were on the job. And you know, in the organization that I belonged to. Later on in the month of May, because I took the dispatch on an April of that year, they have a corn hole tournament. So one of my favorite apprentices I text message to him. I said, Maddie, I didn't sign up to be part of a Hollywood musical with this organization. What the hell's going on with it? My union? Oh anyway, like I say, there's just a morality with a different generation. Now that I'm sixty six years old, I would have never thought to do something like that in my twenties. So I had a lifelong friend and his wife visit me last year at my place in West Virginia, and they hate Trump with a passion. These are the kind of people that do the no Kings protest stuff. And I didn't want to get into politics because I've known this guy ever since I was probably two years old, that's how far back we go. He was a very good friend in high school and I don't want to damage your friendship over politics. But all they could talk about was, you know, Mayor Pete would make a good prey president, Kamala Harris should have won the election. And I didn't tell them that I voted for Trump. Occasionally I would chime into the conversation, but essentially, you know, instead of talking about a lot of the old time stuff we do, and his wife seemed to be driving the conversations, you know, about how Rachel Maddow was such a great journalist and all that, and I'm thinking to myself, they don't want to know my opinion, and like I say, I just don't want to damage a friendship that I've known as individual for years. But they live up in Maine, he's a Massachusetts transplant, that he's always been a liberal, and truth be told with me, if this was nineteen eighty eight, I was a staunch Democrat, and I was very liberal and my views. Sometime in my thirties, early thirties is when I started thinking, wait a minute. You know, I know I'm a Democrat, but what of these other people to call themselves progressives are And I came to the conclusion that they were Communist light and a lot of them are just miserable people by nature, and they have to be an other people's business. So I wouldn't be surprised if this guy Plattner can survive this scandal and vote win the election in Maine. But the other thing that needs to be discussed. He also made disparaging comments about Chris Kyle the sniper as well as a guy who won a purple heart, who basically bought brought himself into harm's way, drawing attention away from his other soldiers.
00:35:42
Speaker 1: He took four bullets. Four bullets yea, he took four bullets.
00:35:45
Speaker 2: Yeah. On social media and call, you know, just insult him that way. It tells you everything about this guy Platiner, and will he will sell out the state of Maine to the highest bitter And I don't know. I guess it's just a societal change. And all I can say is cooner country that if you don't vote in the primaries, whatever state you're in, and you don't vote in the general election, if the Democrats take over this country, you will see Puerto Rico. You will see Washington, d C become states, and we will have two more states that will have four more United States senators, and they will stack the Supreme Court. You can pretty much kiss the Second Amendment goodbye and many other things, as well as the First Amendment. So you know, if you're going to be one of these people that my vote doesn't come. I really don't like the fact that they didn't release the epsteam files. I don't know what to tell you. You know, we are at a fork in the road in this country, and I don't know, Jeff, I just throw my hands up with where I hear some of your callers. And by the way, your your caller, Bill from Sudbury. I enjoy you engaging with him. But the point is with Bill, when you ask him a direct question, he never answers it and he always goes to the what about is and you should allow people like Bill to call in for people like us that I would say, I'm a rational person and you understand their mindset, and you know you got to know your enemy.
00:37:39
Speaker 1: Oh, Tommy, I agree with you. Well, that's why I let him on, and that's why I let other Moonbats on because people say, well why, Jeff, I'm like, exactly your point. You got to know your enemy. Just listen to him just just thirty seconds a minute and you're like, oh my god, Yeah, that's that's who's supporting Platner, or that's who's supporting Bernie, or that's who's supporting AOC, or that's who's going to be supporting Kamala in twenty twenty eight, Like you have to understand that's' these are the voters that are going to put the left, the radical left as you put it, communist light, the Marxist in power. Tommy, before I let you go, your friends from Maine, the MoonBots that and you didn't want a debate with them in politics because you know, you don't want to break the friendship. I get it. Did you ask them are they going to vote for Platner? And what did they tell you.
00:38:28
Speaker 2: Gooden with them since? Because I know if I give a phone call it'll be about politics. And the last time that I had called him prior to the visit to West Virginia was after there was that mass shooting with the individual up there. I think it was in Lewiston, Maine, maybe a couple of years ago, a year and a half ago, and all of a sudden it just started going into Trump and all that, and I just you know, I only called because they lived hear that area, and I just called out a concern. You know, eighteen people were shot, if I'm not mistaken, right, you know. And it's just one of those things of where, you know, I have people that were extended relations through a previous marriage that they are the same way about Trump, that they just hate them. And you know what, sometimes you just got to cut your losses, is how I look at it, you know. And and these individuals in my past life with them, I did an awful lot with them financially, if.
00:39:38
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, I understand. No, I understand, Tommy. I hear you. I really hear you, Tommy. As always, thank you so much for that call. Look, let me let me throw this log on the fire very quick. Is anybody planning, say from Maine, planning to vote for Platiner. I want to hear from you. Tell me why, tell me why. I'm not even going to debate with you, I promise, I just want to ask you why you're supporting this man with all of this baggage, all of these scandals, everything that's now come out about him, And I just want to hear from you why you think he's better than Susan Collins, or why you're willing to vote for him. If you're supporting him, let's say you're donating money, or you just like him, you don't live in Maine. I want to hear from you. I really want to hear from you why you think this man should be a the next senator from Maine, but more importantly, the poster child now for the new Democratic Party. Why he should now be the next Bernie Sanders as he's now being coronated. Six one seven two six six sixty eight sixty eight is the number, the voice and the spokesman for the Democrat progressive movement that's now how he's being viewed by the media, certainly by many Democrats. Jim in New Hampshire. Thanks for holding Jim and welcome.
00:41:09
Speaker 4: Hey Jeff, how are you doing good?
00:41:10
Speaker 1: How are you Jim?
00:41:12
Speaker 2: Good?
00:41:12
Speaker 4: Good? I just want to offer perspectives on this. Again, this is an anti war. Jim was an independent, big time magat supporter of the original MAGA movement. Anyways, I just need to show some comment sense and vision on this. So why did people, especially young people under fifty, both for Bernie or Zain or Planner or Trump or Ron Paul. It's because they all had the same message. Now, I understand there's definitely personal issues. There's a lot of personal assue. Trump by defending ambitiously to Democrats about you know, character flaws whatever, because it was about policy. To me, Now, what was the policy all these these these people share that are popularly amongst young people. It's anti wars as a big one, anti war, not spending trillions and billions of dollars on on especially Middle Eastern wars. It's corruption, it's crony capitalism, it's law being, it's entire trading and uh. Now with a lot of the younger generations, AI, they see what that can do, they see that needs to be addressed. I'm not. I'm I'm a big fan of capitalism and and what it can do. But there needs to be some things that need to be discussed, and AA is one that could affect especially the younger generation. So the thing about Platiner is, yes, he has a lot of personal things that you know that are very disagreeable, but his message is what people are going with and and and is driving a lot of young people to vote for him or want him now again. During Trump had a lot of things he said that I defended you know, a lot and uh, but it was policy. I will I will stand by policy all the time. And unfortunate with Trump, what happened was, you know, we we had people like Matthew Tucker and Marjor Tailor, who are you Trump supporters who weren't with those policies, anti war, you know, let's get rid of the swamp. That's a big one. And he ended going Mark Leman, Lindsay Grant, and Ben Shapiro who were basically never Trumpers who never want Trump because he didn't want to support their again, same policies, war and and everything else. And and so that so a lot of independence field be trained by that. A lot of people on the lot of people in the left they are gonna vote the left regardless, and a lot of people in the right that are under fifty that don't watch Box are feeling that way too. So the whole thing about a Grant like, I just wish the Republicans like what they did.
00:43:22
Speaker 1: The massive to me was I'm.
00:43:25
Speaker 4: I think it was the biggest. That was the nail on the coffins of the Repblica potty for the younger generation. And if they supported people like that that want really good policy, that wanted, you know, drain the swamp, that wants to end corruption, that want to get out of endless four wars, then the Rolica poty be strong. But they got some on the other side that brings a lot of baggage with him, brings because he's speaking that message. And if you've noticed, over the last twenty thirty years, we've had the same neoliberal, neo conservative policies and the younger journaliation is fed up. It's been change election after change election. People just don't know where tore going anymore. So they're going they're trying to.
00:44:01
Speaker 2: Sticking with the same message.
00:44:03
Speaker 4: Now the candidate has changed. Remember that Jeff the Canada has changed whe it's Obama, Bush or Trump provided but the message has always been the same, no war, Let's get rid of this corruption, this this prony capitalism, Let's have a functioning government, Let's bring the deficit down, and let's focus on the affordability. It's always been affordability, and it's the same message, different person every time. So that's what's happening. I just want the Republicans to recognize that and really get their candidates that support that message. And you won't have grand plants. You always have the people like that that.
00:44:35
Speaker 2: Bring that baggage.
00:44:37
Speaker 1: Well, I mean, look, Jim, I hear you, and I think you're You're right on many issues, obviously on inflation, on affordability, on no more wars, constant you know, military interventions around the world. I could go on. But you look at Graham Platner and if we can just leave Trump out of it, or Thomas Massey, because you know he's the focus of today, what does he offer young people? Open borders, I mean, that's what he's calling for, amnesty for every single illegal alien. Well, that's going to wipe them out, taking confiscating their private property, confiscating their bank accounts, the nationalization of all industry. I mean he's a Bolshevik. He wants to start persecuting Jews in the United States. He says there is a Jewish conspiracy that now much be smashed. You say, you know he's against foreign wars. He's a big supporter of Hamas, loves Hamas. He's a big supporter of the war against Russia. He's a big supporter of Ukraine. So, I mean, I could go on and on with this guy. You want to what completely abolish the police, he's your guy. You want to abolish prisons, he's your guy. So I mean, I could just go on and on and look, to me, it's a question of character when everything is said and done. You know, to me, to wear a Nazi SS tattoo, you are one sick puppy. I'm sorry, you just are when you praise Joseph Stalin as he does and identify yourself as a Bolshevik, a system of mass murder and genocide that killed over one hundred million people. When you say that members of the military that you served with, you know arefing you know, our blanking mother efforts who should be shot in the head. I mean there's something seriously wrong with that guy. When you say women who are raped deserve it, when women who are sexually assaulted deserve it. When you know, every time he talks about gay people, it's always you know, the F I can't say it, but the F slur. I mean, I'm just going on and on when you're laughing and saying that there was no Armenian genocide when there was a million, over a million Armenians systematically slaughtered by the him in Turks, and I you know, you know, when you're going on hookup apps, we're not talking personal issues. You know, he had an affair here, he had an affair there. It's between him and his wife. When you're going on hookup apps that pedophiles use and god knows, and you know you can't stop yourself. I mean, I'm just going by his own admission that you have to run to a porta potty to pleasure yourself, that you're basically he's a sex addict. I mean, I'm sorry, what is that offering young people?
00:47:38
Speaker 3: So?
00:47:39
Speaker 1: You know what, because he rails against the oligarchy, because he tells them, yeah, like a good communist, I'll take from the rich and give to the poor. I mean, I'm sorry, Jim, He's he's offering them nothing except misery and poverty and oppression and totalitarianism. You get, you know, enough people like him in power, and we become communist China. So you know, I mean, I understand you're talking about Thomas Massey. Massy's a libertarian. Massy wants the exact opposite of what this guy wants. I want the opposite of what this guy wants. So Jim to me, this guy is poisoned, and that they're gonna and not just that they're gonna vote for him, hold their nose and say, oh, he said a few controversial things. I'm gonna vote for him because I like his program. What in his program is there to like? And we're not just talking about, you know, a few personal issues. The man is a monster. So after this, look, to me, I think it's very clear what propelled him over Janet Mills, because if you look at Janet Mills politically, there's very little. She's a sitting gup her. She's against ice like him, Abolish ice, check open borders, check amnesty, free illegals, check sanctuary state, check, tax the rich and give to the poor. Check, government run, nationalized healthcare check, and I could run down the whole issues, defund police check. Then he says, no, no, no, no, I'm gonna take people's private property and their bank accounts, and we're gonna give it to Native American indigenous people.
Speaker 1: Good morning, cooner. Contrary. Okay, my friends, we are now watching history in the making, because what is taking place in the state of Maine is really now becoming in many ways the battle front in the war, not just over the future of the Democratic Party, but really control of Congress in November. And as many of you know, Graham Platner, who, by the way, is a complete phony. The media keeps saying he's this oyster farmer, working class oyster farmer. No, he was born with a silver spoon in his mouth. He comes from wealth, he comes from privilege. He's a complete fraud. But let that go. The Democrats now are putting him up as their nominee for the US Senate in Maine, and they believe that if they can beat Susan Collins. And by the way, Platner is leading Susan Collins depending on the poll you look at. Some polls have him up by seven other polls have him up by eight even nine percent. So, as we think stand right now, unbelievably, incredibly shockingly, he is on a path to victory. Now it's not just that this would be a major pickup for the Democrats in order to retake not just the House, but in this case the US Senate. This is the race. The Democrats believe that if Platner knocks off Susan Collins and the election then turns out the way they want it to turn out in other pivotal races, this will be the decisive race, the decisive seat that will tip the balance of power from a a Republican held Senate to Chuck Schumer being the next Senate majority leader and the Democrats running essentially the table having control of both the House and the Senate. So in terms of a political race, all the marbles are at stake when it comes to the race in Maine. But what is also happening in Maine is we are now seeing the future shape of the Democratic Party take place right in front of our eyes. Platner now has emerged as the AOC, the mom Donnie, and many are now saying the young Bernie Sanders of the Senate wing of the Democratic Party. And this is why the Democrats and again incredibly, despite all of the baggage that now Platner is bringing with him, he has become to me radioactive, toxic, downright dangerous, and more keeps coming out day after day after day. It doesn't matter. They're doubling, tripling, quadrupling down. I've never seen this before. AOC is not just endorsing him, she's now campaigning for him. Bernie the same thing. Elizabeth Warren now has not only endorsed him, campaigned for him, She's now saying, quote, he's her kind of man. The Democrats are now grooming him and looking at him as their future socialist superstar. The air apparent to the mantle of Bernie Sanders, and they see in him the final piece along with Mamdanie. In New York City, AOC obviously on the house side to a new socialist, leftist, Marxist, very anti Israel, anti Semitic Democratic Party. So this new radical, extreme Democratic party is now being born in front of our eyes, and the Democratic Socialists of America who are all in on Graham Platner, say that Platner is the man who will lead them to the Promised Land. He is the model candidate for them in terms of changing not just the Democratic Party, but changing the future of America. And with all of this now, with all of this massive money and political firepower that is now being put into Maine on behalf of Platner we have to ask ourselves who is this man? And every day it's a new scandal every day, And as I wrote on X last night, we have to start asking ourselves, in all seriousness, where do the Democrats find these guys? How the hell can Graham Platner be a candidate for the US Senate of any major party. In my view, he is objectively, just objectively, maybe the worst candidate ever to run in at least the last fifty, if not one hundred years. For eighteen years, eighteen years, he had a Nazi tattoo, and not just any Nazi tattoo, an SS tattoo stamped right on his chest. And he only covered it up last year when he made a decision to run for higher office, to run for the Senate. So for eighteen years he was essentially a Nazi. He had a Nazi tattoo. He was comfortable with the Nazi tattoo until realizing, well, if I run for political office, it's going to become a liability, so let me cover it up. But that's just a tip of the iceberg. He is an avowed a self described communist his words, a Jew hater, an anti Semite, a supporter of Hamas Hamas who has repeatedly cheered when Hamas has killed either Jews or Israeli citizens. Yesterday, it just came out from another one of his podcasts that he now denies the Armenian genocide. Now suddenly, now he's a genocide denier. Now it's come out. We talked about this regarding Purple Heart recipients, American soldiers who risked everything in the fight against the Taliban, and he went on social media platforms and he mocked them and degraded them and openly said that they should be murdered and killed by the Taliban. He literally is calling for fellow soldiers to be killed. And now, by the way, he's now revealed in all kinds of emails and text messages that he has a sexual fetish for public porta potties. I'm sorry, it's six o'clock in the morning. I don't mean you to throw up your breakfast. But he has a thing for going to public port The guy's a sick pervert. Well now he's embroiled in a sexting scandal. Like every day it's something with this guy. So now the latest is this according to his own wife, his own wife who he married apparently three years ago. When Graham Platner decided to throw his hat in the ring and he was about to get Bernie Sanders' coveted endorsement along with Elizabeth Warren, she said that she wanted the campaign to know anything that could be used against him that she thought could be damaging to him to the campaign, so to make sure he wasn't wasting his time. Could he survive a scandal about his extramarital affair, and so they put together a research opposition opposition research on him, saying, let's see what's the worst that we can find out about him, and let's see if it's enough, if the baggage is not too much, he can survive and will just go on and back him. So she admitted to them that during the first months of their marriage, so they just basically tied the knot that she found Graham Platner sexting with at least twelve women, twelve women sexually explicit messages that he sent to multiple women. He was on a messaging app, a personal messaging app called kick. Honestly, I've never heard of it before. Ki K Kick ki K. It's a hookup site. It's where you go to hook up with women or girls or teenagers for a quickie, for a quick sexual encounter. It is a messaging app that is heavily used by pedophiles. Pedophiles, And now this story has been broken by the Wall Street Journal and other media outlets. Graham Platner sent his wife to do a video to say that their marriage is strong. Okay, I really would like to load up the lines as quickly as possible, and I want to ask you, the great audience of Kooner Country, really two key questions. One, will Graham Platner win? Do you think he will beat Rhino Republican Susan Collins. Now, remember this about and I'm no fan of Susan Collins, as you know. I've been very critical of her, as I've been of all the Rhinos. But this is a milk toast rhino that we're talking about. This is no maga Republican, this is no maga conservative. I'm talking about Susan Collins. And so I'm looking at all of these liberals, all of these leftists, all of these Democrats, and you're willing to vote for a monster like Graham Plattner to unseat In many ways she's a centrist maybe even you look at many of her votes and her views almost center left. She's a liberal Republican, one of the last few liberal Republicans left. I mean, if you know, if you know, it's to me it should be a no brainer in Maine. Not again, not that I like her, but she's infinitely more moderate than almost any other Republican out there. And you're telling me that Democrats have no choice but to vote for this guy. The Naziss tattoo, the porta potties, the sexual fetish, you know, with the porta potties, denying the Armenian genocide, calling for the murder of Jews, an avowed Jew hater and anti Semite, A man who says he's a communist and wants a communist revolution in the United States of America, who, like Mamdani, says it's time to start confiscating private property. By the way, completely wants to reopen the border, just so that you know, utterly reopen the border. In fact, he says what we should do is we should return most I don't know where we're going to live, but he says that we should return most of the land to Native American Indians, So I don't know where that leaves us. But anyway, by the way, a man who says that all white people, all white people are inherently quote racist and stupid, and he's white, so I guess he's racist and stupid. Like I could go on and on and on. I mean, it doesn't end with this guy. And now you know, he's caught in this massive sexting scandal where he's been on this caught having an account for apparently for years, whereby he's been hooking up or sexting with sextion explicit messages on this hookup site at least with a dozen women. And he's got a photo image that accompanies the account, whereby, I don't know if you've seen it. It's disgusting, it's gross, But it's a mirror selfie of him bare chested with just a towel around his waist. But you don't see his face. You just see his body with all of his tattoos and a towel wrapped around his waist as he's trying to solicit women. I assume they're women, because that's the other thing. Now I think, Look, there's something about this that doesn't smell right. If you know anything about kick kik, that's the messaging app. It is heavily frequented by pedophiles. It's known as a pedo app. Now, I'm not saying he's a pedophile. We don't know, But I don't know if he's into let's say, very young women or they happen to be underage women. But I'm telling you, if you're on Kick, there's a lot of pedophiles on Kick. Okay, a lot of the Jeffrey Epstein types are on Kick. And this guy's been caught in a massive sex thing scandal that his own wife brought up to the campaign saying, you know, I just want to make sure it's even worth our time for Graham to run, because you know, I want you to know this is probably gonna come out. And do you think politically, is this insurmountable? Is this the kiss of death politically? And so the campaign looked into it, looked into it, and they said, nah, we're gonna say it's a private matter. We think you can survive this politically. Ai ya yai, ai ya yai. And then to add insult to injury and by the way, according to her, I'm just going by what she said. She said he was already sex and going off with other women. She said this was in the first months of the marriage. They've only been married for three years now. Look, I don't want to get into her motives. I kind of feel sorry for her, to be honest. She seems to me very insecure, very dependent, extremely low self esteem. I don't know what she's doing with this loser. But to add insult to injury, he then instead of defending himself. Now he finally said something yesterday, But when this scandal broke over the weekend, he didn't go out. Mister marine, tough guy, multiple tours in I Rock, you know, with his Nazi tattoo, his ss you know, Death's head tattoo. No, no, no, no. He sent his wife out. He sends the wife to do this humiliating video about how she loves him and respects him and they have this phenomenal marriage and even if it's not a good marriage, it's their business, it's no one else's business. And I'm watching this and I'm like, lady, you're the one that brought all this up. You're the one that told the campaign this is how it all got leaked. This all came from you. You're telling everybody to mind their own business. You're the one that was talking about and opened your mouth about it. I'm going to come back with what she said on the other side. And then I want to ask you the ultimate questions. One will Graham Platner win? Will the Democrats vote for this monster? And he is a monster, Okay, So just to lay it out for everybody. A man with a Nazi tattoo for eighteen years who only only covers it up because he's going to run for the Senate. That was only that was last year. A Jew hater who goes on about how evil the Jews are, how celebrating Hamas whenever they murder israelis an anti Semite to his very core. A man who says America needs a quote unquote communist revolution. Is a self avowed, self described communist. And I mean he does interview after an interview and they said, well, what are your politics, he goes, No, I'm a communist. I'm to the left of Bernie Sanders. I'm even more left wing, if it's possible, than Bernie. He is a true believer in the Bolshevik Revolution. He's openly said this. He says private property should be confiscated, period, full stop, and that all American land should be given back to Native American Indians. That the border, we don't have a right to have a border, because we're such an evil, sinful, wicked country that we should allow the entire world to come, basically to conquer the United States. He's openly said this. So he wants to reopen the borders. He wants to completely defund and abolish the police and all prisons, and abolish ice. He has said women who get raped deserve it, women who are sexually assaulted deserve it. That's what he said again and again. Now it came out on a podcast a couple of years ago. He said the Armenian genocide was a hoax, that the Armenian genocide never happened. I mentioned his fetish with these porta potties. He's sick. He brags about how he has a sex addiction and he has to go to these public porta potties. It's a family show, so I'm not going to get too graphic, but the pleasure himself. Now the latest scandal, and by the way, it's just a tip of the iceberg. I could go on and on about this guy. Okay, where do they find he mocks Purple Heart recipients and says that our soldiers should have been killed by the Taliban. And he says he keeps watching videos of our soldiers fighting the Taliban, and he's laughing and saying that mother effort, meaning our guys should have been killed because they were so stupid to confront the Taliban. I mean, this is the kind of where do they find this guy? He's clearly got serious mental problems. He's a complete fraud. He's not an oyster farmer. He comes from money, spoiled He's a spoiled rich kid born into privilege who hates himself clearly. And by the way, he says all white people, as I said earlier, I guess that assumes himself are quote racist and stupid. He's a self hating white American. That's what this guy is, who, by the way, admitted to doing a lot of drugs and a lot of alcohol, and I think it's done some serious damage to his brain. I'm just telling you the truth.
00:21:15
Speaker 2: Now.
00:21:16
Speaker 1: It turns out he's been on this personal hookup site called kick kik, where he's been sending back and forth some of the most disgusting sexually explicit messages to at least a dozen women that his wife caught him in the first couple months of their marriage. She was the one who divulged his to the campaign to the Democrats. And now this scandal has come out. Now I'm telling you, this is the ticking time bomb. Kik look it up. It is a place heavily. It's a messaging app, a personal app where a lot of pedophiles go. It's known as a pedo app. Now, I'm not saying he's a pedophile. We don't know that yet, but I'll bet you dollars to donuts. Those are young women. Those are young women he's been having sexually explicit messages with. And god knows what else if they actually did hook up. So and the question is where they overage or underage? That's now the question. And so this coward, after being caught now in this massive sexting scandal that's embroiling his campaign on top of everything else, sends out his wife and she does a video. So she has to you know, stand by his you know, stand by his stand by her man, stand by his side. And then alone in the video she's now trying to dows or put, you know, throw some water on this burgeoning public firestorm. This is the wife Amy Gertner defending Graham Platner roll cut five, Mike.
00:23:16
Speaker 3: We love each other deeply. So it makes me really angry, disappointed, and I find it really shameful that there's a group of media outlets and people who are willing to spread gossip instead of talking about real issues that Graham is running on, like healthcare and education and childcare.
00:23:50
Speaker 1: Yeah, don't play the victim. You're the one that divulged all of disinformation. You were the one that told the Democrats. You were the one that told the campaign. You were the one that said, no, no, it's on kick. I'll show you exactly. She literally said, it's at least a dozen women, at least twelve.
00:24:10
Speaker 3: Here.
00:24:10
Speaker 1: Here are the messages. Here's one, here's another, here's another. Here's his personal account. Here's the image of him, the selfie, the mirror selfie of that idiot. And by the way, it is so creepy for a man his age to be taking a picture of his chest off of a mirror with the tattoos and just a towel around his waist. E e E. Okay, a married man e E. Now listen to her saying, no, hey, where We've never been more in love, We've never been happier this. I mean, my god, he's my dream husband. Roll cut five a Mike.
00:25:00
Speaker 3: Being married is hard. Being newly married is hard. Being newly married and going through infertility is hard. Being newly married, going through infertility and a Senate campaign is hard. I don't even know if I have the right words to describe. We've been going through.
00:25:22
Speaker 1: So and she's laughing, she's giggling, but you know, she's telling us how hard this is. Well, nobody put a gun to your head. I mean, you don't have to run for the Senate. You know, well, you know marriage is hard. You know being newly married is hard. Well, yeah, if he's keeping, if he's constantly gitting on you, yeah, yeah, I don't think that would be nice. I mean, I know I wouldn't like it if my wife cheated on me, you know. And since you keep bringing up I didn't bring up the infertility, you did, well, maybe you know, maybe if he wasn't running around with other women, maybe you'd be pregnant by now. I'm just hey, I'm just thinking out loud here one more roll cut five B Mike, I.
00:26:09
Speaker 3: Admire the them, So when there are news articles about our marriage.
00:26:16
Speaker 1: It's just extra.
00:26:18
Speaker 3: Can I say that online?
00:26:21
Speaker 2: I hope again.
00:26:22
Speaker 1: Ah yeah, yay, ay ya yay. He's a really low class comeback, and that wife is also very low class. You know, I admire the blank out of him. By that's a classy You're a classy lady. Okay, My friends, Graham Platner now, unbelievably, after scandal after scandal after scandal after scandal, and he is still leading Susan Collins by seven to eight percentage points. Main Democrats are rallying around him even more incredibly. Bernie Sanders now now says he is the future of the Democratic Party. Elizabeth Warren has not just endorsed him, but said he's quote her kind of man AOC. They're all lining up now, mom Donnie saying Graham Platner could be president. That he now, in their view, is carrying the torch of the socialist far left. He is the prince, the heir apparent to Bernie Sanders. They believe he will win, knock off Susan Collins and then deliver the Senate to the Democrats, and that Platner will then become a superstar for the Democratic Party and maybe their standard bearer going into twenty thirty two or twenty thirty six. So they are grooming him to be the next Baroque Obama. I'm not making this up, and yet the baggage keeps piling up, and so I just want to read a couple of a couple of texts, and I want to go right to the phone lines seven zero four seven zero if you want to text into the show. Seven zero four seven zero. This is from uh six one seven Jeff. The Democrats spent years calling Trump a Nazi, and now it seems they support one. Please help me make it make sense. I don't know what else to tell you. I can't. I can't unless it was always, of course what we said, it was projection. They were calling him a Nazi and a fascist because they know deep down there well Nazis and fascists themselves. And not only are they voting for one, but they're championing one. And I've never seen them champion a candidate like this, So what does that tell you? Another one? This is from seven eight, and I've been thinking about this as well. Jeff regarding his wife Amy Gertner, how do you sleep with a Nazi? Well, yeah, but just to add to you what you're saying. And I'm sorry, I don't want to see him a prude, but you know, the guy had an SS tattoo on his freaking chest all. It wasn't like on his back or on his ankle or or whatever on his caff or. So you know, you're with the guy in the bedroom. I don't mean to be graphic, but you're in the You know you're with the guy in the bedroom. You know easier you see the tattoo. The SS tattoo is staring at you the whole time. Yeah, maybe she has one too, Mike says, for all we know, maybe she's got one, and maybe that's how the two of them hit it off. You know, I don't have to say ay yea yay. I'm gonna just say hey, ya yai ai ya, yay okay, one more and then I want to go to the phone lines. This is from seven eight one. Jeff, what are the odds that Platner is quote unquote sexting with his online harem inside the porta pottis?
00:30:19
Speaker 2: Oh?
00:30:22
Speaker 3: You know, what.
00:30:24
Speaker 1: I think you got him seven eight one. I think that's exactly what's happening Tommy in Brockton. So anyway, the guy's a pervert. Hey, let's just put you know me, he's a sick pervert. And by the way, he's doing better with women than men. His base of support are white liberal women, college educated women, and get this one, especially younger college educated liberal women like in their twenties and thirties. What I mean by younger. And when you push them, they go they find I'm not kidding, they find him sexy. I is it the Nazi tattoo?
00:31:13
Speaker 2: Is it?
00:31:13
Speaker 1: The porta party?
00:31:16
Speaker 3: Is it?
00:31:16
Speaker 1: The is it the jew hatred?
00:31:19
Speaker 4: Is it?
00:31:19
Speaker 1: The I mean, seriously, is it when he says women get raped they deserve it?
00:31:24
Speaker 2: Like?
00:31:24
Speaker 1: Well, what is it that he likes to smack women around? That he you know, and that that that turns you on? Like, can somebody explain this to me? Six one seven two six six sixty eight sixty eight Tommy and Brookton, thanks for holding Tommy, and welcome.
00:31:44
Speaker 2: I think what we're seeing here is a generational shift of morality. And you know, I retired as an electrician in September twenty eighteen, I took a dispatch to a job in Medway, Massachusetts. They were doing a powerhouse, gas fired powerhouse, and there were a bunch of guys that had worked at the Salem Powerhouse previous to that job, and they got a They caught an electrician on a job in a porta potty. I don't know his age, but he was punching the clown watching porn on his cell phone. Okay, I was in hysterics when I was told about this. This story gets better. There was also a man and a wife, a couple along with another man that filmed themselves engaging in sex acts and they were on the job. And you know, in the organization that I belonged to. Later on in the month of May, because I took the dispatch on an April of that year, they have a corn hole tournament. So one of my favorite apprentices I text message to him. I said, Maddie, I didn't sign up to be part of a Hollywood musical with this organization. What the hell's going on with it? My union? Oh anyway, like I say, there's just a morality with a different generation. Now that I'm sixty six years old, I would have never thought to do something like that in my twenties. So I had a lifelong friend and his wife visit me last year at my place in West Virginia, and they hate Trump with a passion. These are the kind of people that do the no Kings protest stuff. And I didn't want to get into politics because I've known this guy ever since I was probably two years old, that's how far back we go. He was a very good friend in high school and I don't want to damage your friendship over politics. But all they could talk about was, you know, Mayor Pete would make a good prey president, Kamala Harris should have won the election. And I didn't tell them that I voted for Trump. Occasionally I would chime into the conversation, but essentially, you know, instead of talking about a lot of the old time stuff we do, and his wife seemed to be driving the conversations, you know, about how Rachel Maddow was such a great journalist and all that, and I'm thinking to myself, they don't want to know my opinion, and like I say, I just don't want to damage a friendship that I've known as individual for years. But they live up in Maine, he's a Massachusetts transplant, that he's always been a liberal, and truth be told with me, if this was nineteen eighty eight, I was a staunch Democrat, and I was very liberal and my views. Sometime in my thirties, early thirties is when I started thinking, wait a minute. You know, I know I'm a Democrat, but what of these other people to call themselves progressives are And I came to the conclusion that they were Communist light and a lot of them are just miserable people by nature, and they have to be an other people's business. So I wouldn't be surprised if this guy Plattner can survive this scandal and vote win the election in Maine. But the other thing that needs to be discussed. He also made disparaging comments about Chris Kyle the sniper as well as a guy who won a purple heart, who basically bought brought himself into harm's way, drawing attention away from his other soldiers.
00:35:42
Speaker 1: He took four bullets. Four bullets yea, he took four bullets.
00:35:45
Speaker 2: Yeah. On social media and call, you know, just insult him that way. It tells you everything about this guy Platiner, and will he will sell out the state of Maine to the highest bitter And I don't know. I guess it's just a societal change. And all I can say is cooner country that if you don't vote in the primaries, whatever state you're in, and you don't vote in the general election, if the Democrats take over this country, you will see Puerto Rico. You will see Washington, d C become states, and we will have two more states that will have four more United States senators, and they will stack the Supreme Court. You can pretty much kiss the Second Amendment goodbye and many other things, as well as the First Amendment. So you know, if you're going to be one of these people that my vote doesn't come. I really don't like the fact that they didn't release the epsteam files. I don't know what to tell you. You know, we are at a fork in the road in this country, and I don't know, Jeff, I just throw my hands up with where I hear some of your callers. And by the way, your your caller, Bill from Sudbury. I enjoy you engaging with him. But the point is with Bill, when you ask him a direct question, he never answers it and he always goes to the what about is and you should allow people like Bill to call in for people like us that I would say, I'm a rational person and you understand their mindset, and you know you got to know your enemy.
00:37:39
Speaker 1: Oh, Tommy, I agree with you. Well, that's why I let him on, and that's why I let other Moonbats on because people say, well why, Jeff, I'm like, exactly your point. You got to know your enemy. Just listen to him just just thirty seconds a minute and you're like, oh my god, Yeah, that's that's who's supporting Platner, or that's who's supporting Bernie, or that's who's supporting AOC, or that's who's going to be supporting Kamala in twenty twenty eight, Like you have to understand that's' these are the voters that are going to put the left, the radical left as you put it, communist light, the Marxist in power. Tommy, before I let you go, your friends from Maine, the MoonBots that and you didn't want a debate with them in politics because you know, you don't want to break the friendship. I get it. Did you ask them are they going to vote for Platner? And what did they tell you.
00:38:28
Speaker 2: Gooden with them since? Because I know if I give a phone call it'll be about politics. And the last time that I had called him prior to the visit to West Virginia was after there was that mass shooting with the individual up there. I think it was in Lewiston, Maine, maybe a couple of years ago, a year and a half ago, and all of a sudden it just started going into Trump and all that, and I just you know, I only called because they lived hear that area, and I just called out a concern. You know, eighteen people were shot, if I'm not mistaken, right, you know. And it's just one of those things of where, you know, I have people that were extended relations through a previous marriage that they are the same way about Trump, that they just hate them. And you know what, sometimes you just got to cut your losses, is how I look at it, you know. And and these individuals in my past life with them, I did an awful lot with them financially, if.
00:39:38
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, I understand. No, I understand, Tommy. I hear you. I really hear you, Tommy. As always, thank you so much for that call. Look, let me let me throw this log on the fire very quick. Is anybody planning, say from Maine, planning to vote for Platiner. I want to hear from you. Tell me why, tell me why. I'm not even going to debate with you, I promise, I just want to ask you why you're supporting this man with all of this baggage, all of these scandals, everything that's now come out about him, And I just want to hear from you why you think he's better than Susan Collins, or why you're willing to vote for him. If you're supporting him, let's say you're donating money, or you just like him, you don't live in Maine. I want to hear from you. I really want to hear from you why you think this man should be a the next senator from Maine, but more importantly, the poster child now for the new Democratic Party. Why he should now be the next Bernie Sanders as he's now being coronated. Six one seven two six six sixty eight sixty eight is the number, the voice and the spokesman for the Democrat progressive movement that's now how he's being viewed by the media, certainly by many Democrats. Jim in New Hampshire. Thanks for holding Jim and welcome.
00:41:09
Speaker 4: Hey Jeff, how are you doing good?
00:41:10
Speaker 1: How are you Jim?
00:41:12
Speaker 2: Good?
00:41:12
Speaker 4: Good? I just want to offer perspectives on this. Again, this is an anti war. Jim was an independent, big time magat supporter of the original MAGA movement. Anyways, I just need to show some comment sense and vision on this. So why did people, especially young people under fifty, both for Bernie or Zain or Planner or Trump or Ron Paul. It's because they all had the same message. Now, I understand there's definitely personal issues. There's a lot of personal assue. Trump by defending ambitiously to Democrats about you know, character flaws whatever, because it was about policy. To me, Now, what was the policy all these these these people share that are popularly amongst young people. It's anti wars as a big one, anti war, not spending trillions and billions of dollars on on especially Middle Eastern wars. It's corruption, it's crony capitalism, it's law being, it's entire trading and uh. Now with a lot of the younger generations, AI, they see what that can do, they see that needs to be addressed. I'm not. I'm I'm a big fan of capitalism and and what it can do. But there needs to be some things that need to be discussed, and AA is one that could affect especially the younger generation. So the thing about Platiner is, yes, he has a lot of personal things that you know that are very disagreeable, but his message is what people are going with and and and is driving a lot of young people to vote for him or want him now again. During Trump had a lot of things he said that I defended you know, a lot and uh, but it was policy. I will I will stand by policy all the time. And unfortunate with Trump, what happened was, you know, we we had people like Matthew Tucker and Marjor Tailor, who are you Trump supporters who weren't with those policies, anti war, you know, let's get rid of the swamp. That's a big one. And he ended going Mark Leman, Lindsay Grant, and Ben Shapiro who were basically never Trumpers who never want Trump because he didn't want to support their again, same policies, war and and everything else. And and so that so a lot of independence field be trained by that. A lot of people on the lot of people in the left they are gonna vote the left regardless, and a lot of people in the right that are under fifty that don't watch Box are feeling that way too. So the whole thing about a Grant like, I just wish the Republicans like what they did.
00:43:22
Speaker 1: The massive to me was I'm.
00:43:25
Speaker 4: I think it was the biggest. That was the nail on the coffins of the Repblica potty for the younger generation. And if they supported people like that that want really good policy, that wanted, you know, drain the swamp, that wants to end corruption, that want to get out of endless four wars, then the Rolica poty be strong. But they got some on the other side that brings a lot of baggage with him, brings because he's speaking that message. And if you've noticed, over the last twenty thirty years, we've had the same neoliberal, neo conservative policies and the younger journaliation is fed up. It's been change election after change election. People just don't know where tore going anymore. So they're going they're trying to.
00:44:01
Speaker 2: Sticking with the same message.
00:44:03
Speaker 4: Now the candidate has changed. Remember that Jeff the Canada has changed whe it's Obama, Bush or Trump provided but the message has always been the same, no war, Let's get rid of this corruption, this this prony capitalism, Let's have a functioning government, Let's bring the deficit down, and let's focus on the affordability. It's always been affordability, and it's the same message, different person every time. So that's what's happening. I just want the Republicans to recognize that and really get their candidates that support that message. And you won't have grand plants. You always have the people like that that.
00:44:35
Speaker 2: Bring that baggage.
00:44:37
Speaker 1: Well, I mean, look, Jim, I hear you, and I think you're You're right on many issues, obviously on inflation, on affordability, on no more wars, constant you know, military interventions around the world. I could go on. But you look at Graham Platner and if we can just leave Trump out of it, or Thomas Massey, because you know he's the focus of today, what does he offer young people? Open borders, I mean, that's what he's calling for, amnesty for every single illegal alien. Well, that's going to wipe them out, taking confiscating their private property, confiscating their bank accounts, the nationalization of all industry. I mean he's a Bolshevik. He wants to start persecuting Jews in the United States. He says there is a Jewish conspiracy that now much be smashed. You say, you know he's against foreign wars. He's a big supporter of Hamas, loves Hamas. He's a big supporter of the war against Russia. He's a big supporter of Ukraine. So, I mean, I could go on and on with this guy. You want to what completely abolish the police, he's your guy. You want to abolish prisons, he's your guy. So I mean, I could just go on and on and look, to me, it's a question of character when everything is said and done. You know, to me, to wear a Nazi SS tattoo, you are one sick puppy. I'm sorry, you just are when you praise Joseph Stalin as he does and identify yourself as a Bolshevik, a system of mass murder and genocide that killed over one hundred million people. When you say that members of the military that you served with, you know arefing you know, our blanking mother efforts who should be shot in the head. I mean there's something seriously wrong with that guy. When you say women who are raped deserve it, when women who are sexually assaulted deserve it. When you know, every time he talks about gay people, it's always you know, the F I can't say it, but the F slur. I mean, I'm just going on and on when you're laughing and saying that there was no Armenian genocide when there was a million, over a million Armenians systematically slaughtered by the him in Turks, and I you know, you know, when you're going on hookup apps, we're not talking personal issues. You know, he had an affair here, he had an affair there. It's between him and his wife. When you're going on hookup apps that pedophiles use and god knows, and you know you can't stop yourself. I mean, I'm just going by his own admission that you have to run to a porta potty to pleasure yourself, that you're basically he's a sex addict. I mean, I'm sorry, what is that offering young people?
00:47:38
Speaker 3: So?
00:47:39
Speaker 1: You know what, because he rails against the oligarchy, because he tells them, yeah, like a good communist, I'll take from the rich and give to the poor. I mean, I'm sorry, Jim, He's he's offering them nothing except misery and poverty and oppression and totalitarianism. You get, you know, enough people like him in power, and we become communist China. So you know, I mean, I understand you're talking about Thomas Massey. Massy's a libertarian. Massy wants the exact opposite of what this guy wants. I want the opposite of what this guy wants. So Jim to me, this guy is poisoned, and that they're gonna and not just that they're gonna vote for him, hold their nose and say, oh, he said a few controversial things. I'm gonna vote for him because I like his program. What in his program is there to like? And we're not just talking about, you know, a few personal issues. The man is a monster. So after this, look, to me, I think it's very clear what propelled him over Janet Mills, because if you look at Janet Mills politically, there's very little. She's a sitting gup her. She's against ice like him, Abolish ice, check open borders, check amnesty, free illegals, check sanctuary state, check, tax the rich and give to the poor. Check, government run, nationalized healthcare check, and I could run down the whole issues, defund police check. Then he says, no, no, no, no, I'm gonna take people's private property and their bank accounts, and we're gonna give it to Native American indigenous people.
