'Hypocrisy!': Joe SLAMS Republicans for criticizing Platner, while ignoring Ken Paxton

Democrat Graham Platner has suspended his campaign for U.S. Senate in Maine after days of intense political pressure to drop out of the race ahead of Monday's ballot deadline. Platner's candidacy was thrown into chaos earlier this week after a former girlfriend accused him of sexually assaulting her years ago. Platner has denied those allegations, but the controversy led to a number of top democrats pulling their endorsements, and a mass exodus of voter support. The Morning Joe panel discusses Platner trying to leverage his replacement pick, and the hypocrisy of Republicans critical of the Platner controversy.
