**Jason Hamer** (0:00)
My name is Nigel, Jason Hamer, right over there with a very special guest on the hotline.

**Nigel** (0:04)
The host of The Tony Kinnett Cast, weeknights at 7, right after our program here on WIBC.
Also with the Daily Signal, he is Tony Kinnett. And Tony, the political left in this country loves to call everybody on the right Nazis. They love to say, you voted for a rapist. He's the rapist in the White House. And then Graham Platner comes along in Maine. And I haven't heard as much of that chatter because they were hitching their wagon with this weirdo.
Let's talk about Graham Platner here. He's still in the race. Technically, he has not stepped down yet. Your thoughts?

**Tony Kinnett** (0:49)
I think this is the funniest thing that could have happened. It was here on this fantastic radio station where you guys make horrible calls about fast food places. Oh! I'm sorry. How dare you guys go through that segment without talking about the greatness of Hardee's Breakfast. But anyway, I digress.

**Jason Hamer** (1:08)
I'll listen to that.

**Tony Kinnett** (1:09)
Unlike Hardee's Breakfast, Graham Platner didn't deliver. He's like, I have an oyster farmer and I have PTSD. And also, I'm also not a rapist. And then he turned out that all of that stuff was untrue. And again, abused women.
He, in multiple ways and kinds, lied about his business, lied about his service, all of this stuff. And I said, he will not make it to July 13th. I said, he will either drop out or there will be calling for him to drop out because eventually there will be stuff that comes out that is so bad. Even Zoran Mamdani and Bodhi Sandus will not be able to hold their noses and walk past it. And we're here in Ain't It Swell, guys. Isn't this fun? Ain't it a hoot?

**Nigel** (1:50)
When you've lost Mamdami, that should tell you that it's probably time to pack it up and pack it in. Because when the communist says, man, I don't like that guy's character, that's probably not the thing that you need to get you across the finish line.

**Tony Kinnett** (2:05)
When the guy who is literally they pulled from the movie Idiocracy, sitting at George Washington's desk backwards with a bunch of people who can't read the script in front of them, says that he can't support you, you've lost the plot, man. I mean, he, goodness gracious, he looks like the saddest, droopy-est guy right now, man boobs hanging out of the tank top as he's trying his best to just make it past another week. He's like, well, I want to choose my successor. And it's like, dude, you couldn't even choose a condom. I don't even think that you need to be in this conversation at this point.

**Nigel** (2:35)
And the thing is, Tony, if he were polling better, like if the polling show that he would be winning this race, nobody would say anything. They would be perfectly fine with this long laundry list of bull crap.

**Tony Kinnett** (2:50)
And that's the thing that I have said before. And this is again, something I've said on my show. You'll see some of the comments are pointing out the jar, another coin for the Tony Kinnett was right jar. And this would be unfortunately one of them. I said they'll support him despite the allegations, because Lindsay Feifield, a friend of mine, talked about the domestic abuse against her. We covered that here on the show with you guys a couple of weeks ago. No one cared, no one said boo. But then as soon as Susan Collins, the most milquetoast, mediocre, moderate Republican ever, essentially she's just made out of styrofoam and boredom.
This lady started beating him in the polls, 52, 55%, super commie. I mean, they decided, all right, that's it. Let's go ahead and wrap it up, pack it in. Let me begin. They got to get somebody else before the 13th.

**Jason Hamer** (3:36)
So that's why we're just now hearing from platforms like Politico and Axios about-

**Tony Kinnett** (3:43)
Well, Axios, my god. Did you see about a half an hour ago? So remember, after Biden and Kamala Harris and the joy cometh in the morning, after that whole thing ended, Axios was like, you know, maybe we should have talked about Biden's mental health. I'm not joking. A half hour ago, Axios released an article in which they said, you know, maybe we should have noticed that Platner was lying about his oyster business and was out here abusing women. Maybe we should have been more reflective on this.
I just want to slap them with a large wet fish. Do you know what I'm saying? Like I want the smacking sound to be gross to people three blocks away.
