Current Maine SOS Announces Her Bid to Replace Platner — Gets Attacked by Lefties for Holocaust Ed Work

Democrat politicians in Maine are already announcing their desire to be the replacement for Graham Platner.

I'm in.⁰⁰The people of Maine have been building something real – a movement that deserves to go all the way to November. I've spent my entire career taking on tough fights for working people, and I'm not stopping now. I'm running for United States Senate, and together we are… pic.twitter.com/k3ITFbkwEg

Shenna Bellows is currently the Secretary of State of Maine and has worked with the ACLU and other far-left organizations. It seems she would be their perfect candidate to oppose Susan Collins. Not so fast ...

Shenna,

Because of your past role at the holocaust and human rights center, some have extrapolated that to assume you would have policy that is too sympathetic to Israel in general.

It is obviously perfectly fine to think that the holocaust was atrocious, that Israel has a…

Shenna is already being told she's a big fat NO.

What is the reason? She worked in a Holocaust center. Yes, really.

Who would have thought there would ever be a day in modern United States politics where working to inform others about the atrocities of the Holocaust would disqualify someone from running for public office?

This is today's Democrats.

Also it's mighty generous of you to concede it's "perfectly fine" to believe the Holocaust was bad.

Hopefully the good candidate is smarter than I am.

Unfortunately, she could mute him, but there are a whole bunch more Democrats who think just like him.

Imagine a party where being involved with the Holocaust and Human Rights Center is a minus because, hey, you might see Jews as human. https://t.co/rvsFOE3r7p

One doesn't even have to imagine anymore. That's the Democrats.

These are just morally repugnant human beings. Good lord. https://t.co/f0lgISFIqV pic.twitter.com/0QfG0JOrOu

If you're assuming someone is going to be sympathetic to Israel because they worked in Holocaust Education and therefore need to be extra scrutinized, something is really wrong with your thought process, and you should reflect on what led you to this point. https://t.co/LjH2sDT8OY

You don't even go here. Shut up. https://t.co/4vVGp88wRb

Love that he has 'trying to make the world suck less' in his bio as he openly discriminates against Jewish people. Maybe he should look in the mirror and fix his belief system if he wants the world to be a better place.
