Although we probably should, we don’t cover a lot of national politics here at TLO.
As a result, we’ve never had much reason to write about Mark Robinson – the former North Carolina lieutenant governor whose political résumé reads like a Ryan Walters wet dream, including everything from denying the Holocaust and defending slavery to calling LGBTQ people “filth” and referring to himself as a “Black Nazi" on online porn sites.
Well, thanks to the Oklahoma County GOP, we finally have an excuse to write about him!
Last Thursday, Robinson was the guest of honor at the organization’s Lincoln Reagan Dinner – an annual event the group apparently puts on to make Lincoln and Reagan roll over in their graves.
Seriously, out of all the politicians, pundits and washed-up Fox News contributors available on the right-wing dinner circuit, they went with – checks notes – the guy whose campaign for North Carolina governor imploded after CNN shared his deranged posts on a pornography message board.
