Platner should make up with Fetterman | Letter
As a supporter of Graham Platner, I believe it is time for him to step up, show us his skills at peacemaking, and stop feeding the fires of vitriol that have started between him and John Fetterman. Wouldn’t it be appropriate for Platner to reach out to Fetterman and display how to make peace as […]
