When was this taped? The of the conversation rings true, but when I got to the part about the World Cup coming to North America I was a bit perplexed.

Another thing that perplexed me was Plantner gaining support after the sexual assault assertions came out. Aren't liberals/progressives supposed to give a certain amount of credence to such claims? We certainly can't allow ourselves to turn into a mirror image of MAGA where we support a candidate because they say the right things and seem to fit an image.

Everyone is due their day in court, assuming that a court appearance is appropriate, but running for office is not a trial and the appearance of something as egregious as a sex crime can't be overlooked. Particularly if we are going to demand better candidates across the board.

Platner hasn't dropped out yet. And would you believe, he is demanding a say in choosing his replacement? What a set of brass cujones!

Blackwater would have been an instant turnoff for me if I was a voter in Maine.
