00:00Senate candidate responds to controversy over tattoo.

00:04Well, well, well, looks like the party of tolerance has once again tripped over its own moral high ground

00:10and landed face first into a Nazi tattoo scandal.

00:14The Democrats have picked a Senate candidate who redefines unelectable.

00:18Graham Plattner, Bernie Sanders' pick for Maine, is a communist with a controversial Nazi tattoo.

00:24No, this isn't satire.

00:25Plattner released a video to preempt opposition research. Bold move.

00:30But he's drunk, shirtless, revealing a skull tattoo resembling the SS Totenkopf,

00:35worn by Nazis at concentration camps.

00:38Whoops.

00:39But don't worry, folks, he's not a secret Nazi.

00:43We know this because he went on Pod Save America and said so.

00:46Still, things got worse fast.

00:48Turns out a former acquaintance remembers Plattner proudly displaying the tattoo years ago in D.C.,

00:54calling it Totenkopf.

00:55In a cutesy little way.

00:58His ex-political director quit, deeming it anti-Semitic.

01:02Plattner also posted rants on Reddit, attacking black people and calling cops bastards.

01:07Yet somehow, this is still the Democrat Party's guy.

01:11The left's reaction?

01:12Buffoonishly inconsistent.

01:15John Lovett joked on Twitter about Democrats being overly selective with candidates,

01:20suggesting a drunken dude with a Nazi tattoo is now relatable.

01:24Progress.

01:24Bernie Sanders, known for critiquing America's systems, is defending Plattner's military service

01:30as Senate-worthy.

01:31Communist, Nazi tattoo, yet four tours?

01:35Apparently no problem.

01:37Imagine if a Republican candidate had any skeletons, a Reddit post, a vague symbol, an off-color joke.

01:43The left would demand public cancellation and exile.

01:46But a Democrat?

01:49Context matters.

01:50Trauma.

01:51Military experience.

01:53Give me a break.

01:54This isn't just about Plattner, but what the Democrats tolerate for power, forget consistency.

01:59So ask yourself, if this is the kind of guy they're eager to run, who are they hiding behind the curtain?

02:07The 2026 midterms promise to be exceptionally contentious.

02:13The left abandoning past pretenses embraces raw identity-first politics, even if it means aligning with

02:20controversial figures, cozying up to a candidate with Nazi ink, just the new norm.
