@cbsnews: BREAKING: Maine Democratic Senate candidate Graham Platner announced Wednesday he is suspending his campaign after a woman accused him of sexually assaulting her when they were dating five years ago, ending a Senate run punctuated by personal controversies. Platner announced his decision in an 11-minute social media video. He vehemently denied the sexual assault allegations but said the pressure from state-level and national Democrats had made it impossible for his campaign to continue. "I have faced some very serious allegations, and I just want to make it clear, this is all false," he said. "The things that have been claimed did not happen. It's not real." #breakingnews #maine #politics

Good. If she’s lying, he should sue for defamation. Let’s see how he does with DISCOVERY.

slefba :

Of course he denies it

FTRUMP! God Bless our Troops :

Democrat/Republican… every possible or current politician has to be held accountable for their actions. If the allegations are false, I imagine he has the right to sue for defamation.

You would think his communist policies and Nazi beliefs would have been enough

Rob Fouche :

Shocker, the guy with the Nazi tattoo, who cheated on his wife, told a girl who attempted suicide to try harder and criticized a combat vet was accused of rape and had to drop out. No one saw this coming CBS.

Not because he is a nazi. Never forget Democrats voted for him.
