NC has a legitimate chance of going blue this cycle, and if that happens, it will be in no small part because of Mark Robinson. This guy is one of the worst candidates I've ever seen. Which is really saying a lot because the GOP have been running some absolute shitheads in the MAGA era.
Oh my gosh that's reminding me of the football guy who was running for GA Senate in 2020/2021. Except he was just not a smart guy. I remember something about werewolves and vampires…?
"The other night I was watching this movie — I was watching this movie called Fright Night, Freak Night or some type of night but it was about vampires. I don’t know if you know but vampires are some cool people are they not? But let me tell you something that I found out: a werewolf can kill a vampire did you know that? I never knew that. So I don’t want to be a vampire anymore I wanna be a werewolf." - Herschel Walker, November 16th 2022
I agree with the idea that NC has a chance to go blue this cycle; as Mark Robinson is a disgusting force in the MAGA space. He is one of the most vile that MAGA GOP have allowed to represent them. I can only hope people wake the fuck up and vote in favor of their interests instead of against themselves. In the past, at least some of the MAGA era scum have been a bit less vile (still people who were ethically impaired). Mark Robinson makes JD Vance look relatively tame if you put them side by side, that really says a lot about Mark.
