Trumps Comments & Collins/Platner

Aaron Chadbourne discussed Donald Trump’s recent comments about Susan Collins and Graham Platner. Trump criticized Plattner, calling him a “thug” and a “phony,” while praising Collins for her perfect attendance voting record, noting she’s voted over 10,000 times. Trump’s comments on Platner are seen as an attempt to muddy his opponent. Collins’ voting record is compared to a Wisconsin senator’s, with Collins needing 250 more votes to surpass her. The conversation also touched on Trump’s past criticisms of Collins, including her votes against the Iraq War and his impeachment. The discussion highlighted the dynamics of Trump’s involvement in the upcoming election and the impact of personal behavior on political careers.
