Yet Another Mark Robinson Eye-Popper
Newly unearthed online comments from the North Carolina Republican have him casually musing about shooting a prominent civil rights leader.Andrew Egger (The Bulwark)
👋🏼“Republicans running for office in #NorthCarolina and around the country are distancing themselves from #MarkRobinson, deleting photos of themselves side by side with the embattled Republican nominee for governor and removing any reference to his endorsement from their campaign materials.”

"[Mark] Robinson also posted far worse things on the porn site than the things about his predilection for peeping on unsuspecting women and other sexual misconduct, which we know, because CNN, who broke the story, decided not to publish the worst stuff, because it was too bad to print. So I guess there's even worse out there that's just ... not being reported on, for our protection, I guess."

Lord knows we are all excited for another chance to dunk on #MarkRobinson but I am *once* *again* reminding cisgender liberals that transphobic jokes are still transphobic even when they are made at the expense of another transphobe.
Please stop using our people as props for your boring, predictable sex jokes.

…#MarkRobinson had called himself a “black #NAZI!” on the forum in 2010 & voiced support for bringing back #slavery the same year. Robinson, who has expressed hostility toward transgender people in his campaign, also said on the message board that he liked to watch transgender pornography.
To be clear, #Trump called this guy Martin Luther King.

N.C. Republican vows to continue campaign for governor amid fallout of CNN story
Michael Lonergan, a spokesman for Mark Robinson campaign, said it was “complete fiction” that Robinson was under pressure to drop out of the race.Patrick Svitek (The Washington Post)
CNN found that #MarkRobinson, the #Republican nominee for governor of #NorthCarolina, made a series of inflammatory comments on a pornography website's message board. Robinson referred to himself as a "#blackNAZI!" & expressed support for reinstating #slavery.
#Trump praised Robinson & called him "Martin Luther King on steroids."
Abby Phillip’s face says it all.
Richardson also notes that the Mark Robinson story distracts from another major news story yesterday: the continued stellar performance of the US economy under President Biden. She says,
"Bringing the U.S. economy out of the pandemic more successfully than any other major economically developed country meant clear goals and principles, and careful, informed adjustments."

As Heather Cox Richardson notes, "That this scandal dropped on the last possible day Robinson could drop out of the race suggests it was pushed by Republicans themselves because they recognize that Robinson is dragging Trump and other Republican candidates down in North Carolina. But here’s the thing: Republican voters knew who Robinson was, and they chose him anyway."

Commentators are now speculating about a "reverse coattails" effect for Trump in North Carolina: as Mark Robinson goes down, he may take Trump with him. These commentators include Carter Wrenn, cited by Marc A. Caputo and Sam Stein, and Larry Sabato, cited by David Badash.

"A few days ago I wrote a piece on The Left Hook arguing we need to use 'Nazi' to describe where MAGA is headed. I brought out all the receipts. For a party and movement that is so hostile and allergic to diversity, equity, and inclusivity, I am curious to see if they are willing to expand the tent and continue supporting Mark Robinson, a man who referred to himself as a 'Black Nazi.'”

"In another era, [Mark Robinson's] candidacy wouldn’t have survived his almost beyond-belief scandals. But he’s staying in the race. So in North Carolina, it’s perfectly proper to talk about the Trump-Robinson Republican ticket. It’s perfectly proper to run ads of Trump praising Robinson and Robinson praising Trump. It’s perfectly proper to make the election not just a referendum on Trump personally but on Trumpists.

Mark Robinson is barely even trying to beat the allegations. He thinks his voters won’t notice.William Kristol (The Bulwark)
There was Trump blaming Jewish voters if he loses to Kamala Harris — his tired old antisemitic trope never quite identified as such by journalists.
There was more shocking dirt — allegations seemingly substantiated — about Florida Republican Rep. Matt Gaetz's sexual encounters with minors at drug-flooded parties.
And there was Oprah Winfrey's interview with Kamala Harris.

As Doktor Zoom says at Wonkette, yesterday's news cycle brought "just a ridiculous amount of news…. and all of it kind of weird!"
There was the Mark Robinson story (see /1 - /5 above).
There was the news that Olivia Nuzzi of New York Magazine has been put on leave for a previously undisclosed relationship with Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as she wrote about him as a political candidate.

"He thinks he can fashion his history of disturbing, angry behavior into a story in which he is the victim—and that the voters will buy it. He sees those voters as morally malleable dupes, who will cross any serious ethical line in the service of politics.
It makes sense for him to make this calculation. After all, it has never not paid off for Trump."
As Andrew Egger reminds us,
"Donald Trump is a close Robinson ally: He endorsed Robinson during the primary, calling him 'Martin Luther King on steroids.'”
And:
" In pledging to plow through, in suggesting it may all be AI, in choosing to run in the first place—knowing this stuff was all out there—Robinson has offered a nasty appraisal of the voters whose support he is seeking."
"CNN’s Andrew Kaczynski had tracked down a bunch of old online profiles of Robinson—most notably, an account he’d frequently used to comment on a porn site, Nude Africa, in the early 2010s. Those posts included some of the most insane ranting you’ll ever see:"

"Robinson’s campaign has been weighted by his long history of incendiary rhetoric, including about a top issue this election cycle, #abortion.[He wants to ban abortion & limit #BirthControl]
More recently, though, he has faced increased scrutiny over his personal life... he regularly visited #porn shops in Greensboro in the 1990s and 2000s, long after he said he became a devoted #Christian"
