Chuck Schumer Backs Nazi-Tattooed Senate Candidate Despite Abuse Allegations from Three Women

What was said

"As I said, I endorsed Graham Plattner. We're going to take back—we're going to beat Susan Collins and take back the Senate."

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer doubled down on his endorsement of Graham Plattner despite revelations about his Nazi tattoo and New York Times reporting based on interviews with over two dozen people including three women alleging physical abuse, womanizing, and disturbing comments about rape. When pressed by reporters about the endorsement, Schumer refused to withdraw support, prioritizing retaking the Senate over the allegations.
