To Defenders of Platner: It’s OK to not want yet another douchebag repping the team. It gets fucking old. Let people advocate for not wanting a shitheel for a senator.
To Platner’s Liberal Attackers: Get on the bus. Primary is over, you have your anti-Trump candidate. Voting for a politician isn’t declaring undying faith, it’s taking a bus ride to get closer to where you want to go. A politician will seldom get you exactly where you want to go, but they can get you closer by the way they vote, even if they suck as people. So come voting time, get on the bus.
Oh we board this bus. It was always blue no matter who. Am I disappointed in the result? Sure. But this tent is big enough for us all and it goes both ways.
