Hugh Hewitt: Ro Khanna, Elizabeth Warren, Bernie Sanders Will Have to Wear ‘the Platner Tattoo’ for the Rest of Their Lives in Politics

‘They fell for the consultants from New York writing in saying, ‘This is a guy we can turn into a candidate’’

EXCERPT:

HEWITT: “They’re — they’re all going to wear the Platner tattoo for the rest of their lives in politics, like he’s going to wear the reputation for the Nazi tattoo. There was one Democrat who did not endorse Graham Platner, AOC. She kind of read the room, she saw the warning signs and she stayed away. She didn’t want anything to do with this guy. And so, my hat is off — again, she’s got sparkle and she’s got some political instincts that the older ones don’t have. But Mayor Mamdani and Warren and Bernie, they all fell for it. They all fell for the consultants from New York riding in from [inaudible] and saying this is the guy we can turn into a candidate. Again, I think back to what’s going on up in his house right now, and there are a lot of people who make money if he stays in the race. And Graham Platner’s got nothing ahead of him except pain and remorse unless he stays in and fights. So, I don’t think it’s a done deal, John. There were stories earlier today he was going to step down today. Well, it’s not done yet, so we’ll wait and see.”
