    Its easy to read my comments for yourself. People are bothered because I dared question the timing of sich a political bombshell report.

    I never said it wasnt true and have repeatedly said Robinson is terrible and that because he is, it could be true.

    I said the "coincidence (of things he said vs things he speaks out against) seems hard to fathom"

    What you will see in this and other threads is me clearly state that just like trump this dude wont get my vote. He is unfit for office and I said that multiple times here before this report ever came out.

    You questioned more than the timing.

    I don’t believe this is a fair recounting of your position in this thread. Yes, you stated you wouldn’t be voting for him (which I’ve never claimed otherwise), but you didn’t make that decision based on this latest bombshell. My point was that you had pretty strong statements questioning the credibility of the report:

    Spent a few minutes reading about things he reportedly said and did before the p0rn site story broke. Apparently, he paid for an abortion but regrets it; filed multiple bankruptcies; failed to pay taxes, pushed conspiracy theories about the Obamas; made jokes about the violent attack on Paul Pelosi, etc. Will anyone who really likes Trump be bothered by any of this?

    I'll grant you it seems unbelievable that someone would be this utterly disconnected in what they say in public and how they lead their life in private, much less a Governor candidate... but it seems there is no bottom to the GOP candidates these days.

    So what if the dude’s a Black Nazi. Hitler wouldn’t allow a bro into the SS. Took 21st Century North Carolina to do it.

    Money well spent.

    These companies are bankrolling a multi-million dollar effort to elect Mark Robinson governor of North Carolina

    Many of the most prominent corporations in America are supporting Robinson's candidacy through the RGA. This has been a critical source of funding for Robinson because, due to his long record of extremism, Robinson has struggled to raise funds even before the publication of the CNN story. He has been badly outraised by his opponent, North Carolina Attorney General Josh Stein (D). Just as the RGA started its $17 million ad blitz on Robinson's behalf, Robinson's campaign only had about $6.5 million in cash on hand — money that had to be used to cover all the campaign's expenses, including staff and travel.

    Top corporate contributors to the RGA this cycle include Google ($585,000), Walmart ($570,000), CVS ($550,000), Microsoft ($550,000), Travelers Insurance ($460,000), Amazon ($450,000), Deloitte ($400,000), Charter Communications ($385,000), Oracle ($325,000), Pfizer ($300,000), Coca-Cola ($250,000), The Motion Picture Association ($250,000), and Wells Fargo ($250,000).

    Well he's black. He started out on the shortest of leashes with the GOP.

    As the guy on the Daily Show said, "Who leaves comments on a porn site?" Imagine "engaging" on a porn site like it's GC or something. LOL!

    "Seems". I said that word repeatedly. Seems is a word that speaks more to perception than the stating of fact.

    I also said this:

    and this...

    Timing was the crux of my reasoning.
