But it’s not that Republicans suddenly developed a conscience. While Robinson’s comments reported in the piece are horrific, and should by any measure be considered disqualifying, they’re also par for the course for him. His antisemitism, in particular, has been well-reported; it is not news that the man is a bigot. So those watching Republicans push him to drop out now should ask: Are they doing so out of a desire to fight antisemitism and hatred, or because their candidate is polling poorly?

In a 2018 post on Facebook, he wrote, “this foolishness about Hitler disarming MILLIONS of Jews and then marching them off to concentration camps is a bunch of hogwash,” a thematic follow up to a 2017 post that read, “there is a REASON the liberal media fills the airwaves with programs about the NAZI and the ‘6 million Jews’ they murdered.”


That same year, he wrote, “I am so sick of seeing and hearing people STILL talk about Nazis and Hitler and how evil and manipulative they were.” Also in 2017 (a prolific year, apparently), he wrote, “George Soros is alive. Adolf Hitler is dead” in a post that continued, “1000s of left wing liberal Marxist members of our media are alive (and brainwashing our societies). Adolf Hitler is dead.”

Is Mark Robinson dropping out of North Carolina's gubernatorial race? If so, why didn't Republicans panic about his open antisemitism before?

Of the popular 2018 movie Black Panther, he wrote, “How can this trash, that was only created to pull the shekels out of your Schvartze pockets” — using a racist Yiddish term for Black people — “invoke any pride?” The superhero was “created by an agnostic Jew and put to film by satanic marxist,” he added.
