NC GOV 2024 - Stein (D) vs Robinson (R)

[President Johnson]

I actually hope(d) Cheri Beasley would get another chance for higher office. She fought a good fight last year and would truly represent something new.

Why should that come at the expense of Josh Stein when he won his last two elections though?  Just food for thought. Is it because he's white?

I thought he had some ethical issues lately? If that's resolved, he might be the best bet for Democrats. Especially against Robinson, they should play it save.

Mastriano 2.0 set to announce tomorrow:

Trump endorsement imminent, I guess? Not that he needs it, his nomination is assured. He's where the pulse of the base is.

[President Johnson]

Robinson is much closer to Mastriano than Lake.  Even if he isn’t quite at Mastriano levels, he’s pretty d*** close

Yeah, he's absolutely obnoxious and has been for many years. Didn't he start his political career with promoting the absurd conspiracy Michelle Obama was actually a man? Black reparations for whites is one of the most pathetic and ridiculous proposals I've ever heard. How much of the black vote is he going to get this level of nonsense?

[President Johnson]

Calling for reparations from blacks and defending sex offenders/rapsists, I'm sure is a winning message.

Yeah, I'm starting to think this might be more like PA-GOV than AZ-GOV.

This guy might actually be more batsh** than Mastriano. I didn't even know that was possible.

That was my thought as well. He seems more obnoxious than Mastriano and Lake, which is already an extremely tall order. Let's hope North Carolina crystal clear rejects this moron.

[President Johnson]

Is this guy a threat to Stein? I wouldn't say so.

Seems like Democrats have a major cash advantage most of the time in all critical races.

[President Johnson]

The state is probably too polarized for an actual landslide, I could see Stein winning by a similar result as Cooper did in 2020. Robinson is basically Mastriano on steroids. I wonder how much of the black vote he will get. I can't imagine that much. The guy literally called for African Americans paying reparations for being liberated of slavery, which is one of the most ridiculous things I ever heard.

[President Johnson]

They forgot Robinson also said blacks should pay reparations for being liberated from slavery. The guy is Mastriano on steroids.

ABC News: Bankruptcy documents detail how GOP NC governor nominee Mark Robinson failed to file federal income taxes for 5 years

Lmao, how is that Republicans in cycle after cycle come up with terrible candidates in what used to be competitive races? Seems like vast parts of their base just lost it, and the bench of candidates is equally insane.
