Concerning Graham Platner’s Nazi-adjacent tattoo: he got it with some other drunk friends who had all fought to protect the Constitution, as our armed forces are pledged to do. It was a macho moment they shared. Skulls and crossbones are scary and cool, otherwise pirates wouldn’t have adopted the images.
I don’t care what Mr. Platner had tattooed on his chest. I will support a defender of the Constitution before the tattoo-less man in the White House, who I find to be more than adjacent.
