Somewhere here said lefty support for Platner reeks of desperation and that's my take too. The left broadly speaking doesn't have standards because we are so starved for candidates and people with genuine leftist convictions will tie themselves in knots trying to justify why they would vote for the serial liar with terrible political instincts and a sketchy as hell past just because he says the obviously correct thing about healthcare.

I wouldn't be surprised if some money is being exchange. Always happens with these streamer people.
