It seems modern Democrats can’t object to Nazi-lovers inside the party.

Massachusetts Rep. Jake Auchincloss just got major lefty backlash for calling Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner’s Nazi tatoo (and his pathetic excuses for it) “disqualifying.”

“I’ve been clear about Graham Platner. I find that tattoo and his commentary about it to be personally disqualifying,” Auchincloss said Monday on CNN; “I hope Maine voters agree with me.”

That brought a storm of progressive social-media fury accusing Auchincloss of wanting President Donald Trump to have a Republican Senate majority for his last two years in office.

Saikat Chakrabarti, the former AOC staff chief now running to replace the retiring Rep. Nancy Pelosi, called on Bay State Dems to oust Auchincloss in his coming primary; others demanded Jake get kicked out of the Democratic Party.

Since they despise Israel, progressives will pretend the tattoo doesn’t matter (on a Democrat).

Democratic base voters simply want to believe in the image Platner’s handlers have created, and ignore all the evidence of his deep instability — not just the Totenkampf tattoo, but his vile Reddit posts about sexual assault victims, veterans, law enforcement and the rural Americans the progs are convinced he appeals to.

Auchincloss’ reality check: It’s foolish “to think that Graham Platner’s brand of the Democratic Party is what wins us durable majorities throughout this country.” 

Urban lefties, willingly fooled into thinking Platner’s dysfunction is what will appeal to “authentic white working men,” are being taken for a ride.

The way to win is to heed Auchincloss’ wisdom: “Values and principles always come before party.”
