Fox News personalities Sean Hannity and Kellyanne Conway on Tuesday slammed Graham Platner, the Democratic Senate candidate in Maine, but their line of attack had many people thinking of President Donald Trump instead.

Platner has faced a series of controversies, including a New York Times report detailing accusations of “unsettling behavior” toward women he’s dated. He’s had a Nazi tattoo and has a history of offensive posts on Reddit. He’s also reportedly sent explicit messages to women other than his wife.

Platner has blamed post-traumatic stress disorder, which went undiagnosed for a time, and has said he is striving to be better.

Hannity on Tuesday wondered if “there’s any line this guy can cross before they can say enough?”

“Oh, he crossed the lines a long time ago,” Conway, who ran Trump’s 2016 campaign and worked in his White House during his first term, replied. “But the Democrats keep moving that line, the line of morality, decency, truth, transparency.”

Conway called Platner “crackers” and said the Democrats were sticking with him solely because he could help them flip a Senate seat and take power.

“And power for power’s sake is the definition of corruption,” she added.

The simple answer as to why they stick with him, it's called control and power. And… pic.twitter.com/e6erYEDnyj

Conway workshopped a similar line of attack on Platner last week after he won his primary, wondering aloud if there was a “magic number” of scandals that would end the Democratic Party’s support for his campaign. She did not mention the dozens of scandals surrounding Trump, who has his own extensive and problematic history with women, which includes being found liable for sexual abuse. He also has a track record of lying and corruption.

Given all that, critics fired back:

Every accusation is a… https://t.co/SQoZP1ieL8

On Earth 2, they’ve never heard of Donald Trump. https://t.co/vajoAjqEhP

They’re talking about Trump, right?

I had to screenshot this. Truly unbelievable irony. https://t.co/2e5SUhfEc7

These people simply have no shame or souls. For them to say this is hypocrisy on a cosmic scale, after what they have empowered and continue to defend. https://t.co/dGnUegurEx

Are these hypocrites serious! https://t.co/GP1YjEhc4N

Again, do these people ever listen to the BS that comes out of their mouths? They have pledged allegiance to a man who doesn't know the definition of the words morality, decency, and truth. Thirty-four felony counts of an illegal scheme to influence the 2016 presidential election…

Kellyanne has to be cracking up off camera at this purely absurd stuff coming out of her mouth https://t.co/lTXS4vk4JV
