'The wheels are coming off': Maddow on growing calls for Platner to end Maine Senate bid

Rachel Maddow breaks down the growing calls from top Democrats for Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner to end his campaign after Politico reported that a woman he previously dated had accused him of sexual assault.

In a statement provided to Politico and subsequently obtained by MS NOW, Platner called the allegations “troubling, serious, and false.” The scandal-plagued candidate repeated that statement in a video posted to X, stating his campaign is “taking the time to reflect on the best path forward.”
