A great thread and a perfect example of how the Democratic coalition can collapse: you back someone like Platner because he mouths things about populist politics, and all of a sudden women, GSM, and ethnic minorities no longer feel safe in the big tent, because you privilege white men over others.

Platner’s rocket to stardom reflects something ugly that’s developed, not only on the right, but the left.
