Platner called PTSD excuse 'bulls---' in 2020 post, now cites his own struggle to explain online controversies

Democrat Graham Platner cited his struggle with PTSD to explain past online controversies, but a 2020 post showed him calling PTSD an excuse 'bulls---' for offensive behavior. Platner is running for Senate against Sen. Susan Collins in Maine. He has tried to tie his past remarks to his PTSD and struggles after serving in Iraq and Afghanistan.
