Welcome to my daily political musings. Grab a cup of coffee, sit back and enjoy!
How about that Mark Robinson? He’s looking for gainful employment, is what I hear from down Tar Heel way. One has to assume that the crazy stuff he wrote in the porn chat room has been in place and aging, as Trump said, like a fine wine for a number of years.
Trump said a lot of really complimentary things about Mark. Said he was better than Martin Luther King. Said he was Dr. King times two. Trump could only lavish praise on Mark. But then Mark said he wouldn’t mind slavery coming back because he’d kind of like to own a couple. He said that on the porn site, but he said it. That kind of statement is seriously extra.
Some of the things Mark talked about might have been bravado, and it might have been real expressions of deeply held world views. In either case, funding for his political endeavors has all but dried up. The staff from his state office, he is currently the lieutenant governor of North Carolina, are walking off the job to get as much distance away from him as possible. Needless to say, his campaign staff has all but disappeared.
Even Trump is trying to distance himself from his chosen one. Distancing himself will be lots easier to say than to do. Trump has draped himself all over Mark. I’m sure Trump was planning on touting him as his “African American.” It’s hard to believe a man could be that tone-deaf, but no one is going to accuse Trump of having perfect pitch.
He can read a crowd. He can drive them into a frenzy, but he can’t really motivate anyone. What he can do is to get people to believe in his word balloons of gloom and his princely rescue of damsels in distress. The idea of women voting, having bodily autonomy, or even living on equal footing with men is beyond anything he can imagine.
That’s his latest, you know. I’m sure his buddy Laura Loomer whispered in his ear about what women really want. “To be protected”...By Donny? Really?
Who are those women? Don’t be shy. Speak up, and we’ll get you some help. We understand how hard it is to get out of abusive relationships.
