Kellyanne Conway urges Dems denounce their vote for Senate candidate Graham Platner
Former President Donald Trump advisor Kellyanne Conway urged Democrats to disown Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner during an appearance on the Fox News "Hannity" show. Conway compared the situation to Republicans' past distancing from David Duke, stating, "Remember, every Republican had to disclaim David Duke, no matter if we met him, had a meal with him, or heard anything he said." Conway demanded every Democrat running for U.S. Senate this year distance themselves from Platner and call for his removal from the ticket. The former advisor's comments came as Platner faced mounting criticism from both parties as he seeks to unseat incumbent Sen. Susan Collins (R-ME).The Wall Street Journal reported Platner's wife, Amy Gertner, informed Platner's campaign he exchanged sexually explicit text messages with multiple women and maintained an active account on Kik, a private messaging app criticized by child safety advocates. Previously disclosed Reddit comments from Platner have also drawn controversy.Watch the video below. Your browser does not support the video tag.
