Aliados de Biden divididos por la candidatura al Senado de Platner en Maine

La exdirectora de comunicaciones de Biden, Kate Bedingfield, calificó el apoyo demócrata al candidato al Senado por Maine, Graham Platner, como una acusación contra el partido. Hunter Biden defendió a Platner durante una conversación con el gobernador de California, Gavin Newsom.

Bedingfield apareció en el programa “The Arena” de CNN el 13 de junio. Afirmó que pasar por alto las transgresiones de Platner era desmoralizante y señaló una división de género en las reacciones. Observó que los votantes de Maine tienden a favorecer a las mujeres y a los residentes de mayor edad.

Bedingfield añadió que Platner debe atraer a los votantes que eligieron a Biden y Collins en 2020. Dijo que los ataques de Donald Trump contra Platner podrían ayudar en ese esfuerzo. Sus comentarios se alinearon con las críticas del senador John Fetterman.

Hunter Biden defendió a Platner vinculando su comportamiento pasado con el servicio militar y el trastorno de estrés postraumático (TEPT). Se declaró seguro en un 99 por ciento de que Platner no es nazi. Biden sugirió que los críticos deberían primero revelar el contenido de sus propios teléfonos y cuentas de iCloud.

Trump respaldó a la senadora republicana titular Susan Collins varios días antes.
