What was said
"At least his stupidity and fat-ass wheezing are available for all future infantrymen to witness and hold in contempt. Poor marksmanship on the Taliban's part is the only reason this mouth breather made it home."
Former Marine Graham Plattner, running for Maine's Senate seat and currently leading Susan Collins by 8 points, sparked outrage over resurfaced Reddit posts mocking PFC Ted Daniels, who was shot four times in Afghanistan in 2012. Plattner wrote the Purple Heart recipient didn't deserve to live and criticized his combat decisions. Despite the controversy, Plattner leads Collins significantly in early polling, though he faces scrutiny over other controversial statements including having a Nazi tattoo.
