In a June 15 letter, “Has Graham Platner not been #MeToo-ed?,” the writer referred to “… Platner’s past behavior, extremist views and women’s own standards” which, he said, “should bar him from holding public office.”
I’m sorry, but has the letter writer forgotten about the convicted felon who is the current president of the United States? The same one who was caught on a hot mic by “Access Hollywood” disparaging women? Give me a break! And tell Republicans to look themselves in the mirror before talking about Graham Platner’s past!
