Democrats 'selling their soul' to embrace Platner are in for rude awakening with Maine voters: GOP lawmaker

Maine Republican state Sen. Trey Stewart is warning that Democrats are "selling their soul" by defending controversial Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner and that the Democratic Party is moving to a "dangerous place" if he wins a Senate seat in November.

"The voters care a lot," Stewart told Fox News Digital about the mounting criticisms of Platner, including deleted social posts where he described himself as a "communist" and "socialist," used alleged homophobic slurs, and disparaged the military.
