Matt Dunlap Empowered Graham Platner. Here’s Everything He Was OK With.

July 7, 2026

For months, Matt Dunlap stood in lockstep with Graham Platner as one damning report after the other made it clear: Nazi-lover and alleged rapist Graham Platner is sick, morally depraved, and unfit to serve.

Matt Dunlap not only backed him, but also empowered Platner’s campaign. Here’s a reminder of everything Dunlap let slide:

  • Platner’s Nazi tattoo that he repeatedly lied about.
  • The ex-girlfriend who said he “twisted her arm behind her back.”
  • Blaming rape victims. 
  • His profile on an app known as a “predator’s paradise.” 
  • His habit of pleasuring himself in porta-pottys.
  • The “sexually explicit texts with several women” his wife found on his phone.

And sadly, that’s just to name a few.

“Out of touch radical Matt Dunlap’s support of Graham Platner, despite endless reports of his despicable behavior, is disgusting, wrong, and disqualifying. Mainers will hold Dunlap accountable for his appalling judgment. To support Platner, Dunlap has to be as sick as he is.” – NRCC Spokeswoman Maureen O’Toole
