Am I reading it right that Platner has a photo in his high school yearbook calling for a Free Palestine? I mean that’s probably a good sign on that front that we shouldn’t expect Fetterman 2 lol

Considering the relative lack of strong Ukraine supporters that are pro Palestine within congress at the moment I am going to allow myself to get my hopes up

(If he's this much of the real deal he is going to shoot up people's presidential wish lists in a decade. He's only 40.)

Like the idea of the building trades being involved because I would assume that is going to be the union least favorable to tariffs

Didn’t see he was from Hancock County, that’s honestly pretty encouraging too (Solidly Democratic if not Cumberland Co. level, though not THAT far behind it, tbh, + it’s got environmentalist & tourist-friendly Bar Harbor)
