If he doesn’t drop out, he will lose to Collins. His reputation has been irreversibly damaged. Fervently defending him does nothing but harm the progressive platform, and as such I have to assume you’re a bad actor trying to sow division. My only regret is that blocking you won’t actually prevent you from replying to this comment with more rape apologia.
He/Him Jack of all trades, master of none

Yeah it’s really not, and you’re really making me lean towards “rightoid trying to make us look bad.” When allegations are totally uncorroborated, they aren’t taken that seriously. That’s why a random woman can’t just say “Joe Biden raped me” and end his political career. Now, if Tara Reade had messages talking about him being a rapist dating back to years before he was ever a public figure…
I’m not reading the rest of that. You’re deeply unserious. Go away

“Always believe women no matter what”
I’m genuinely not sure if you’re a leftist who’s just braindead, or a rightoid trying to make us look bad, but please stop either way

what exactly is someone supposed to do if they’re falsely accused of rape when running for office?
“Nothing” seemed to work pretty well for Joe Biden. When your accuser has messages regarding you being a rapist dating back to years before you ever ran for office, and your friends corroborate that you’ve never once changed your story, then the only reasonable option is to step down
Because the current standard seems to be that it’s a guaranteed way to tank any campaign.
You know how I know that’s bullshit? There are no credible rape allegations against Zohran Mamdani. If it was that easy to tank someone’s campaign, they would have done that the second he gained literally any popularity

If the left is really gonna compare Graham Platner to Emmett Fucking Till, then maybe we actually deserve to lose
Who are you gonna defend next, Brock Allen Turner?

You forgot 5. He’s a rapist.
And 6. Rape apologia is not a practice exclusive to conservatives

He has such an electable face. I wish I could vote for him
Roommates in hell
I mean, yeah. Not downloading your installers is a bit like buying a disc at GameStop and telling the cashier to hold on to it until you want to play it
Oh you’re right the first game I ever bought was Portal lmao they did stop selling physical copies
There’s a whole platform whose whole shit is selling you games that you can back up and keep forever. GOG is the only one that will never take your library away from you, unlike Steam who can and has before
You can’t stop selling physical copies if you never sold physical copies in the first place
The fact that this was even a case they heard indicates a failure of the system. The text of the amendment is unambiguous and unmisinterpretable. The fact that these four decided they should rule based on what they think the Constitution should say instead of what it literally says should be reason enough to have them removed from their positions.
Imagine a future Supreme Court deciding that the founding fathers would have wanted guns banned if they knew what modern weapons looked like, or that they meant to have the government endorse the Catholic church. Literal text of the document be damned, the Supreme Court rules based on what they want it to say. Tantamount to treason, and they ought to be tried as such.

??? What did I ignore? I’m pretty sure I addressed everything you said, and accounted for multiple interpretations. Is two paragraphs too much for you?

Let me walk you through the maths. If the 2025–2026 winter was the coldest winter in recent memory in your region, then the temperature during winter was below average. For the average temperature to remain constant, while having a below-average winter, the rest of your year must be hotter than average.
Unless you meant that this summer specifically has an average temperature for your region, in which case (as I said in a previous comment), that highlights how damn hot the rest of the world is, considering the planet as a whole has been consistently above average throughout the last year.
Instead of charging you for this tutelage, I’ll simply ask you to donate $50 to a charity of your choice

The average temperature hasn’t changed where you’re at, but this was the coldest winter in recent memory?

Lmao we aren’t even halfway through summer and we’re already demolishing temperature records across the northern hemisphere. Winters getting colder, summers getting hotter
Check out the average temperature of the planet during your region’s coldest winter in recent memory. It was above average. If you experienced record setting lows, how damn hot must the rest of the planet have been for it to be above average overall?
Is there a credible claim about him being a rapist? Because all I can find is the ramblings of a habitual liar who has since defected to Russia
