GOP is 'hook, line and sinker all in' on Mark Robinson: former RNC official
Despite deleting any pictures they may have taken with embattled North Carolina GOP gubernatorial candidate Mark Robinson, Republican lawmakers are doing as little as they can to disavow their Republican Party colleague who has described himself as a "Black Nazi."
That is the opinion of former Republican National Committee chair Michael Steele who claimed that Robinson embodies everything Donald Trump's MAGA followers find appealing.
From his perch as a host of MSNBC's "The Weekend," Steele noted the flood of allegations that have all but assured the North Carolina Republican will lose on election day and claimed Republicans should rid themselves of him — but won't.

Speaking with his co-host Alicia Menendez, Steele explained that the Democratic Party had no problem asking President Joe Biden to step aside which led to the nomination of Vice President Kamala Harris and a subsequent massive shift in the polls, but Republicans are refusing to force out Robinson despite comments he made on a adult website that were so shocking that the press won't even describe some of them.
"The Republicans are quietly having conversations, whispering, 'Could you please tell him, could you pull your endorsement?'" Steele claimed. "That tells you all you need to know. The fact that you are saying all of this quietly says you are not serious, you don't really care, you are just going to go on the record to say, we are telling him not to do it."
"Well put your name on a piece of paper so that we can read your words telling Mark Robinson to step out of the race, or at this point, Donald Trump, to withdraw his endorsement," he suggested before adding, "They won't, because they are hook line and sinker all in on what Mark Robinson represents as today's MAGA Republican party."
