### Headline: So, Allegations Surface and Everyone Suddenly Has a Conscience
Graham Platner’s political adviser has suddenly become a moral compass. After hearing about the rape allegations against Platner, Morris Katz decided it was a good idea for him to drop out of the Maine Senate race. Shocking, right? Apparently, Katz and the crew thought it wise to end the campaign once they caught wind of such serious claims.
Katz took to social media to express his “deep disappointment,” which is a nice touch. After all, who doesn’t love a good virtue signal in the wake of scandal? This is the first time he’s spoken out since a woman accused Platner of forcing her into a non-consensual encounter—a claim Platner is denying, naturally.
In case you were wondering, Platner is reportedly getting ready to file the paperwork to officially end his candidacy. But hold your horses; the Maine Secretary of State hasn’t received anything yet, and he’s got until 5 p.m. on Monday to make it official. No pressure, right?
Let’s not forget that Katz was the one who helped recruit Platner for this Senate gig in the first place, along with crafting that viral launch video that kicked off the oysterman’s political dreams. Now, he’s under fire for how he vetted his candidate. Funny how that works.
So, here’s the kicker: when the stakes are high and the allegations are serious, it’s amazing how quickly people can start calling for accountability. But where was all this concern before the story broke? One can’t help but wonder if they’d still be so eager to stand by their man if the allegations hadn’t come to light. Just a thought.
