Maine State Rep. Geiger Calls Platner Accuser as ‘Republican Operative’

‘He had PTSD, he had just come back from combat’

EXCERPT:

GEIGER: "Well, let‘s be clear, the person who accused him of physicality was — is a Republican operative who actually started a group called Ladies for Kavanaugh, who helped write the speech that Susan Collins gave on the floor to justify her vote for him. So, frankly, I find it a little hard to accept her word when her own diary did not offer any collaboration, and neither did her friends. That he was a lousy boyfriend during a period of time after his combat service, he has, I think, talked about pretty clearly since he started his campaign. He was in a dark place. He had PTSD. He had just come back from combat. He was drinking too much. I have no doubts he was a lousy boyfriend. But I don‘t think that‘s what this campaign is about."
