I’m not entirely convinced he doesn’t already. Why would you single this guy with so much baggage out? Easy to blackmail is the only thing I can think of.

Donna · 13d

He might already have been working for them. Why rush the vetting process? 🤔

maltese mama · 13d

moraff behaves as if he already is working for republicans.

CRS 0N3 · 13d

Republicans would have stuck by him and won the seat by 8 points. Democrats have scruples sure and thats not nothing, but what a bunch of losers.

PaperclipAI · 13d

Also this disgusting creep

Flying Squid is always very serious. Probably. · 13d

Whatever this cheaper vetting process was, it apparently didn't include just reading what he posted on Reddit. Sounds like not so much cheaper as nonexistent.

@jeffgauss.bsky.social · 13d

Maybe he already does

crispy · 13d

The Democrats have proven time and again they are not up for the current challenge. Imagine your profession, and the most senior people in a massive organization simply fly in and put a stranger without experience in charge of the entire operation. It’s insane.

Alex Hardy · 13d

Hear hear! Vote @andrealaflamme.bsky.social ! She's everything Rapist Platner pretends to be

@oneweirdthing.bsky.social · 12d

He should be unemployed. Period. His generational wealth will take care of him and we don't need his ethics anywhere in any position. Thanks. I know you're kidding but damn. Let's not suggest any career for this asshole, huh?

@eplunk6580.bsky.social · 13d

Since he rushed the vetting process, maybe he already does?

Franklin D. Roosefella · 13d

Daniel Moraff needs to be shot into the sun (metaphorically)

Blake105 🇨🇦🇫🇮🇺🇦 🇲🇽 · 13d

Dumb question: Why didn’t anyone other than mills enter the race? Or did they and I’m unaware.

A. “Tony” Shifflett · 13d

Yes. This guy is an incredible fuck up.

@jenallen1.bsky.social · 13d

The party elites didn’t even know who Zorhan was

Dr. Implorable · 13d

An inept, insufferable cosseted know-it-all . . . I'd trade him to the Cleveland Browns for a draft pick to be named later.

Craig Dodge · 13d

So the establishment selected antiestablishment candidate didn’t work out?

The Mighty Jungle💙💛 · 13d

Dan Moraff is an insufferably immature, entitled, uneducated 13-year-old playing kid's games who can only speak in vocal fry & has never entertained a single serious thought. He's a perfect fit for Platner, a failed-downward child of privilege who's only talent is conning the people of Maine

@jke-il.bsky.social · 13d

How do you know he doesn't already?

Rainwalker · 13d

Or, hear me out, be pilloried down at the docks. For those who don’t know what the means, this is pillory. And Mainers betrayed should be allowed to throw rotten produce and live lobsters at the lot of them.

@fieldsofgreen.bsky.social · 13d

True of both Platner and Mills. If you want to see Maine- generated campaigns, look at the Dem gubernatorial primary.

@jerseygirlflorida.bsky.social · 13d

You get what u pay 4

Scotty McArthur · 13d

As we watch this from outside the USA, it sure feels like a lot of people skipped the chapter titled “Lessons learned from the rushed Sarah Palin for VP pick”

Kerstin · 13d

...or retire and shut up forever.

Meanneighborlady · 13d

Dan Moraff...so he and the fiancé fancy themselves Dem Socialist "everyman" recruiters on a nationwide scale?

JoGo · 13d

Who’s saying he doesn’t

HeyMickie42 · 13d

He kinda already does

DC Cassandra · 13d

I’m sure Trump and/or the right wing media will snatch both him and Platner up. There is nothing they like better than “progressive” victims of the “woke lynch mob.” See: John Fetterman, Naomi Wolf, etc

George Wishart · 13d

Dan needs to go work on a farm where he takes blind turkeys out to shit, because it might be the only job he can’t fuck up.

Bill · 13d

So. They spent days getting him. And requested the cheaper report. Well that’s just some fine due diligence right there. Took shortcuts in vetting a candidate for the US Senate. And now it’s all blown up. You’re right Molly. Dan might already be working for the Republicans.

@terg.bsky.social · 13d

Run cheap reviews on completely unknown candidates. Because what's 10's of millions and a whole state regrouping. While a prick makes 11 min hate diatribes.

Lady Renegade ❌👑 · 13d

The selection should start from the bottom (citizens and County Committee calling for nominations) rather than a casting call for an outsider's idea of what a representative of Maine looks like. Also, elect more women, FFS.

Lea Leander · 13d

moraff, fan, and katz need to get new careers. I suggest a paralegal course.

Marie-Helene · 13d

Maybe he shouldn’t be in politics at all. Somewhere there’s a lighthouse that’s unguarded.

MaryBeth Turner · 13d

He might be. Collins is in a scramble now.

Leewah · 13d

Moraff vetted Platner the way Schmidt vetted Palin.

@needparachute.bsky.social · 13d

Really try to get this story straight. Stop the knee jerking.

@dmeee.bsky.social · 13d

When you realize they bought the Temu version of a vetting report bcz they were already satisfied w/ him based on his past donation to Bernie Sanders, as the giggling punchable voice idiot proudly stated in the WSJ video, then it begins to make more sense. www.wsj.com/video/series...

Dr. Strangepork · 13d

Dan Moraff appears to already work for Republicans.

Abolition Game - Current Project · 12d

Sounds like he has been for a while.

SoloSojourner · 12d

The line between journalism and opinion has become so blurred that it is no longer possible to distinguish accurate reporting from manipulated reporting. Worse still, the media acts as judge, jury, and executioner in the court of public opinion, while presenting opinion as journalism. 👇👇🏻👇🏼👇🏽👇🏾👇🏿👇👇🏻👇🏼👇🏽👇🏾👇🏿

SoloSojourner · 13d

The media plays the role of judge, jury, and executioner in the court of public opinion. There was balanced reporting and vetted facts behind Platner’s downfall. Right? Based on what ‘journalists’ uncovered, Platner was indictable. Right? I hope so, because we’ve lost the Senate and 1/2

Dan Davis · 13d

When you’re creating a person out of whole cloth, who needs vetting, amirite? The sociopathic failson becomes the salt of the earth oyster farmer. Moraff et al. had outsized faith in the power of the façade they’d created. Any leftover baggage could surely be handled by a redemption narrative.

Demblu🩵🕊ThankYouJoe Biden · 13d

Also Morris Katz Joe Calvello

JudithFlanders · 13d

Is he the one whose voice rises as he lies, until it can only be heard by bats?

Maria S. · 13d

Adam Moraff is probably already working for Republicans!

Maria S. · 13d

Maybe Because incremental change has meant Republicans get what they want, Democrats get crumbs and run to the phone to proudly announce the 'bipartisan' deal. Even when the deal hurts the American People! 40+ years of incremental change brought us to where we are!

Comen-tator · 12d

EXACTLY what I have said before ... Vetting must be done (thoroughly) BEFORE the candidate runs so that skeletons are out of the closet before the voters get invested in the candidate!

@tabbcrab.bsky.social · 13d

I argue Moraff is already working for them. Taking Ds time/money/energy, ginning up Hobson’s choices & false equivalence, etc.

View from Argus · 12d

All you need to do is watch this. It won't let you read the story but you can watch the video. Dan Moraff needs to get away from anything to do with people's lives: www.wsj.com/politics/ele...

@hamiltonwaverly.bsky.social · 13d

I think there’s a >95% chance Graham Platner goes full MAGA. If not as a candidate in a future election, then certainly as an “influencer” / podcaster to cash in.

@mhaight22.bsky.social · 13d

What is there about Moraff that says he’s a “progressive” strategist?

Forbes Kennedy · 13d

Why the f*ck are the Democrats so inept??

Jennifer Van Goethem · 13d

I mean, he kinda already is.

Hold My PomPoms Bitches · 13d

Dan Moraff needs to fuck off bigly. And take his stupid giggling partner with him.

Francja Katzur · 13d

Self serving Moraff has as much business being in politics as trump.
