Fetterman compares Dems' defense of 'tacky and gross' Platner to disgraced ex-lawmaker

Sen. John Fetterman criticized Democratic colleagues for not distancing from Graham Platner amid scandals, including Nazi iconography tattoos, explicit texts, and controversial Reddit posts. He compared Platner's defense to that of former Rep. Eric Swalwell, who resigned over rape allegations. Democrats remain supportive of Platner to retain Senate control in Maine.
