Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson made no mention of a CNN report earlier this week he described as “ salacious tabloid gossip” during a meet and greet Saturday in Fayetteville, his first public appearance in the wake of allegations he made troubling posts on an adult website.

Robinson, a Republican who is running for North Carolina governor against Democratic Attorney General Josh Stein, was at the Fayetteville Motor Speedway just days after the CNN report alleged he posted on an adult website and called himself a "perv" and a "black NAZI."

He denied the accusations about making posts on an adult website on his campaign social media pages Thursday. His meet-and-greet at the speedway coincided with the Carlton Lamm Memorial Race. Robinson, who spoke for about five minutes and offered a prayer before the race, did not directly mention the CNN report or respond to repeated questions from reporters at the event.

"We’re going to focus on the issues that you are concerned with while everybody else wants to focus on the garbage and the trash," Robinson told hundreds in Saturday night's crowd in Fayetteville. Former President Donald Trump, the Republican presidential nominee, was in Wilmington earlier Saturday, but he made no mention of the allegations against Robinson. Robinson has appeared at previous Trump rallies in North Carolina.

5. Did anybody show up??

The event was at an automobile racetrack in Fayetteville, North Carolina.

Fayetteville is home to a HUGE Army post and Air Force base. The Army post was named Fort Bragg for the Confederate General Braxton Bragg; it is now Fort Liberty. The AF base is named for an Air Force pilot who died in WW I. They are co-located because Fort Liberty is home to the 82d Airborne Division and 18th Airborne Corps, which depend on USAF aircraft to fly them around the world where they jump out.

Here is a clip from the Fayetteville raceway schedule:

September 21, 2024: Carlton Lamm "Big C" Memorial Race with Carolina Clash Super Late Models

The race was named for Carlton Lamm, a poor boy who made a mint in the auto dealership and dirt track racing businesses. Fayetteville Motor Speedway is a dirt track. For those of you not familiar with "dirt track racing" it means exactly what it says -- cars race on a track that is DIRT, not paved -- and there's a huge following.

And you can bet the place was packed with Trump voters from Carolina and from the dirt track world as well as a large contingent of troops from Fort Liberty and Pope AFB.

7. How was he received? Cheering? Boo? Mild enthusiasm?

I recall a video a week or so ago. The Nazi was in a church and explaining how birth control is not needed because the responsibility for birth control lies in women's pelvic area.

And while this bit of useful information was being presented to the congregation, there were positive call and responses to his blathering.
