PORTLAND, Maine (AP) — His U.S. Senate campaign under fire, Maine Democrat Graham Platner said Wednesday that a tattoo on his chest has been covered to no longer reflect an image widely recognized as a Nazi symbol.
The first-time political candidate said he got the skull and crossbones tattoo in 2007, when he was in his 20s and in the Marine Corps. It happened during a night of drinking while he was on leave in Croatia, he said, adding he was unaware until recently that the image has been associated with Nazi police.
He knew about it WAAAAY before this year. He only did something about it now because it was interfering with his political ambitions.
He’s a disingenuous Nazi twat, and anyone still defending him at this point should really reconsider calling themselves antifascist.
That newly presented information does make it look like he was not honest about the timing of when he found out.
