Mark Robinson thread | Sues CNN for Naked Africa reporting

I'm shocked that there is anyone here who thinks Robinson will/would drop out. Literally nothing in this man's behavior tells me he can be effectively shamed or driven by even the slightest modicum of good sense.

Would love to eat crow here. But absolutely no way this man leaves the race ... he simply doubles and triples down.
Trumpers like him are absolutely shameless. He'll likely be back in Evangelical churches this Sunday preaching the same crap he has before and denouncing the same groups and individuals he has before, and the congregations he speaks to will likely still applaud and nod their heads and ignore everything that's come out about him. Trumpers live in a different reality now.
 
He’s getting 40% even in a dead girl/live boy scenario.

I had to read that several times...and you're right.

Some randos are going to catch strays here, but I know of several pods and talking heads that seemingly refuse to address this because -- "Republicans by shoes too"....I guess.

You don’t think he could be bought to step down? I do.
 
“This party” might come January:
  • Hold a supermajority in the North Carolina Legislature
  • Hold its majority in the North Carolina Supreme Court
  • Hold 11 of North Carolina’s Congressional Seats
  • Dominate the Council of State
  • Helped elect Trump to the White House
  • Have majorities in the US House and US Senate
The GOP is far from dead.
And that is the truly scary part. [Transgender] porn, looking at girls in the shower through a peep hole, fantasizes about sister-in-law, heck, that’s just a regular old day for Donald Trump. Also, the bits about Nazi or owning slaves… that fits perfectly with the NC GOP. It is no surprise that the official stance by the NCGOP is to stand by their man as per the official statement made late yesterday. All of that stuff is their “jam” - quite literally.

MOD Note — nyc initiated use of “tranny” slur by directly quoting CNN report of a Robinson post, but let’s not use it otherwise even to discuss Robinson’s issues. Thanks!

Don’t know but suspect it would take a whole bunch of money. If he craps out now, he probably forfeits whatever $$$ he would have made going forward doing Newsmax/OAN and conservative radio stuff.
 
In retrospect, this coming out yesterday was brilliant. It didn't give enough time to have voters turn on him completely (for him to evaluate and drop out). But enough time for people to make statements of support or asks for him to leave. So yeah... It was really smart

Well I guess we'll see. But the Republican Party we grew up with is going to have to do some changing because boomers die every day, and most young people just aren't putting up with the overt racism this party clutches so tight.
 
Regarding the poll...Rachel Hunt is not winning the Lt Gov race with Harris only tied. Sorry but that Lt Gov race is only going to be people who know "R" vs "D" - no one pays attention to the people.

I’m getting very worried about the trends we’re seeing in Gen Z, especially the young men currently in their late teens and twenties. The Joe Rogans of the world are doing a number on them, and I’m not as confident as I was a couple of years ago that young people will continue to move us forward on issues like racial and gender equity.

I share your concern. Those bros may be in the minority, but it is concerning.

I'm not sure that this leaves him much of a career on the right-wing media or event circuit.

Right-wingers might put up with racism, misogyny, xenophobia, trying to overthrow the government, or paying a porn star for sex right after the birth of your child, but they ain't going to forgive a dude playing with action figures and enjoying transgender porn.

It’s really bad. The toxic bro culture has been ramped up with legalized gambling too. The Bar stool/Macafee/Rogan combo has led to a ton of misogyny/homophobia and pro-Trump sentiment
 
If I’m advising Robinson, I’d tell him he should pivot and focus mainly on fighting against the stigmatization of being into extremely kinky sex acts. He might win over some hearts and minds.
