Dems Alienated Normal Men And Are Stuck With Graham Platners
The article criticizes the Democrat party for alienating customary, “normal” men by promoting and supporting candidates and policies that are portrayed as deviant or disconnected from mainstream american values. It argues that Democrats have shifted away from appealing to typical masculinity towards endorsing individuals with controversial or questionable personal histories, exemplified by figures like Senate candidate Graham Platner and others who exhibit problematic behavior or associations. The piece attributes recent electoral losses and scandals to this strategy, suggesting that democrats’ focus on portraying themselves with a “straight guy coded”” image is flawed and that thier continued rejection of “normal men” will lead to further political failures. The author also highlights scandalous incidents involving Democratic figures, emphasizing a perception of moral decline and emphasizing that such candidates do not resonate with traditional American voters.
Editor’s note: This article discusses mature themes.
Because Democrats refuse to acknowledge the inherently repulsive, anti-American essence at the core of their views and positions, they continue desperately trying to convince themselves that the real problem isn’t their policies. Instead, they argue, it’s the bigoted voters who prefer electing straight (white) men over “black and brown bodies.” That’s why they keep saddling themselves with freaks like U.S. Senate candidate Graham Platner.
All the normal men who were in the Democrat Party are just about gone.
The dynamic has been playing out for several years now. Democrats lost the presidency to Donald Trump in 2016 and ever since have maintained that the best way for them to win competitive elections is not to adopt more appealing positions, but to conceal their perverse drag queen identity beneath a corny, manifestly fraudulent aesthetic. We’ll call it “straight guy coded.”
Their latest attempt just blew up in Maine, where Graham Platner is facing yet another accusation of sexual misconduct, as reported Monday in Politico. “I remember him grabbing my pelvis and being really forceful of me,” said Platner’s accuser, 41-year-old Jenny Racicot, regarding an incident she alleges took place in 2021. “I remember the specific moment where I thought to myself, like, ‘This is no longer my choice.’” She said her twilight public confession, coming only after Maine’s Democrat primary contest, was because she struggled with a “moral conflict” between “supporting his politics, but not supporting him as a person.”
Platner has denied Racicot’s claim and previous accusations of abusive conduct. Incidentally, he has pleaded ignorance of the meaning of a tattoo on his chest that appeared to be a Nazi symbol before he had it altered late last year.
If that weren’t enough, Platner has also proudly told the story about the time he took off nearly all of his clothes, exposing his puffy pink gut at his brother’s wedding reception, where he obnoxiously sang along to a Miley Cyrus song, an act that Platner generously described as his “wedding gift.” This is who Democrats are dealing with.
It’s not just in Maine. It’s everywhere. They nominated Joe Biden in 2020 on the “straight guy coded” strategy, gambling that voters would accept the former vice president as normal and stable enough. He turned out to be just short of dead, and his presidency was an indisputable catastrophe. They’ve nominated “straight guy coded” James Talarico in Texas for U.S. Senate, a person who describes his still elusive girlfriend as his “rock” and who is more preoccupied with the sexuality of children than Jeffrey Epstein. Talarico has also bragged about being a Christian who hates his own professed religion and declared it a great accomplishment that his “church” has had atheists as members.
Democrats hate normal men, so this is who they have left to recruit — little goblins and fiends itching to crush the American middle class and wipe out Christianity, but while wearing a straight guy skin suit.
It hasn’t been entirely unsuccessful. They did manage to elect U.S. Sens. Ruben Gallego of Arizona and Jon Ossoff of Georgia, though neither of them drew nearly the national scrutiny as other straight guy coded Democrats. Should they run for president — as the dying media are certainly wanting them to — they will. Gallego will be seen in his ridiculously tight jeans and Ossoff is an aging twink, yet to be fully vetted.
But for every Gallego or Ossoff there’s an Andrew Gillum, who, it turns out, was just busted (again) for alleged illegal drug possession. Recall that Gillum nearly became Florida’s Democrat governor in 2018 before he lost to Ron DeSantis — and before he was found passed out naked on the floor of a hotel room stacked with drugs, and where Gillum had apparently been partying with a male prostitute. Or as Gillum’s wife might refer to that period: the good old days.
So long as the Democrat Party continues hating normal men, pushing them away with their gruesome policy positions, there will only be more Graham Platners.
