Senate candidate Graham Platner and Sen. John Fetterman (D-Pa.) may be both Democrats, but that does not necessarily make them friends.

In fact, Platner called Fetterman an “a**hole” during a Sunday town hall in southern Maine.

“The Senate really is a place of, it’s a lot about relationships, and I I don’t want to go down there and simply be nonfunctional,” Platner said, answering a question about who he is looking forward to working with in Washington, D.C., if elected in November.

“I mean, as you can all probably tell, we got a lot of criticisms about the way this government functions. But in order for us to make it functional, we’re going to have to do stuff. And you can’t just go down there and be John Fetterman and just and just kind of just sort of be an a**hole.”

“He’s said mean things about me, I’m allowed to say that,” Platner added.

progressive over his history of inflammatory remarks. He has also urged him to release messages linked to a Kik account.

“This is a guy that had a problem with me, how I dress, but he seemed to have no problem posing in a towel at a disgusting website that consistently had serious problems about that kinds of depravity,” Fetterman told Fox News host Sean Hannity.

Fetterman also challenged Platner to make public messages he allegedly exchanged with women on the platform.

“Let me make a deal. I’ll tell P-Hustle, I’ll wear a suit every day, if he releases all those texts and messages that he’s had… the dozen women,” he continued, referring to Platner’s username on the platform.

Platner posted on X over the weekend that “John Fetterman seems to genuinely think that the reason no one likes him is because he refuses to wear a suit.”

“It’s not the hoodie, dude. It’s because you’ve become a stooge for AIPAC and the Republican Party.”

“I am very much just some random guy from Sullivan, Maine,” Platner told the crowd of supporters shortly before receiving a standing ovation for claiming in November “we are going to beat Susan Collins.”

Platner’s message to voters focused on wealth inequality.

“We must understand that we have entered a new phase in the American political story,” Platner said. “We have entered an era that I think looks a lot more like the 1880s or the 1930s or the 1960s than the last 40 years. We have entered an age of a Politics of power, and we need to start acting like it.”

Platner heads into Tuesday night’s primary election where Democratic Gov. Janet Mills and former senior government official David Costello are on the ballot.

If victorious, Platner will square off against incumbent Sen. Susan Collins (R-Maine) in November.
