Robinson is only following the Trump playbook:

Now we know there are 4 people in N.C. with a shred of decency. Although, that is tenuous as they had signed on in the first place. Maybe this is their shot at redemption.

#2 I think it is more them seeing the ship sinking and want to jump off to try and cleanse themselves of the stink of failure.

He is a terrible human being...sooooo trumpian.

There is no redemption without them coming out against him.

I was told CNN was "fake news".

Why are so many people quitting over something that is fake?

Speaks, the only thing I can figure is that maybe it's not fake news after all. Somebody from MAGA world can correct me if I'm wrong.

Look.. If they have to create fake news so that the fake news media will finally pay attention to maga's fake news then that is what maga maroons will just have to do.

We can assume the rest of his staff is onboard with him being a Black Nazi.

All senior figures in the campaign as well. Where there is smoke...

Oh BTW did he or did he not hire Jack Burkman as his new campaign manager? Now that article also takes a little dive into his porn site activities... Typical Republican from what I can tell when it comes to that matter.

The hits keep coming!

Robinson drove his wife for an abortion ... he was a member at more porn/cheating sites than previously reported:

Newly unearthed data shows closer links to Robinson and porn, dating sites

From the cited article...

...The campaign said the staff members who stepped down are

Chris Rodriguez, campaign manager;

Heather Whillier, finance director;

Jason Rizk, deputy campaign manager; and

Conrad Pogorzelski III, general consultant and senior adviser. ...

Whoa, those are not insignificant people in a campaign.

Lindsey says he was "beyond unnerved" by the allegations against Mark Robinson. He adds, "I ran from the parlor into my boudoir, collapsing onto the chaise, calling out for smelling salts. As my companion Dwayne handed me a julep I murmured, 'Black Nazis and porn? Tell me more'"

The real question goes out to the voters of North Carolina.

Is this the type of person you want Governing your state?

'Character assassination,' says one top NCGOP candidate after CNN story on Mark Robinson
www.newsobserver.com

... Following the news tying the GOP's gubernatorial candidate, Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson, to a series of graphic, offensive and racist comments made online about a decade ago, many are waiting to see what Republican candidates running across North Carolina will say.

They're also waiting to see what -- if any -- will be the fallout from this news for the GOP. So far, it's been mostly radio silence from the party's candidates, though one candidate for executive statewide office insinuated Robinson was being targeted. ...

Yup.

@#21

Though...

(and you had to know there would be a "though." :) )

There is also a secondary question for the presidential election...

Fmr Pres Trump had a rally in North Carolina recently.

Yet, LT Gov Robinson was notably absent from that rally. Fmr Pres trump had a rally in North Carolina, yet the Republican candidate for Governor of that great state apparently was not invited to appear at that rally.

Why?

I mean, someone who fmr Pres Trump has said was Dr Martin Luther King on steroids.

Yet now he seems to eschew any association with Lt Gov Robinson.

Why?

@#23

Wow, my reply of "Yup" was more along the lines of "good question" and not in any way, manner, shape, or form an indication of agreement with the assertion of the question.

#25 | Posted by LampLighter at 2024-09-23 09:32 PM

I understood.

Of course it is, so long as it "owns the libs".

There is no candidate too evil, immoral, vile, scummy, etc so long as it owns the libs.
