7. The GOP doesn't just attract them - they're put in charge.

Some Republican operative came across this grifter and his wife and thought, "Aha! We can get him elected Lt. Governor of this state and then we'll get him elected governor. He's corrupt as hell, with no moral compass whatsoever, so he'll go along with all our money-grubbing schemes. People will love him because he spouts all the MAGA talking points plus he's Black! What could be better. Give him some money, buy him some suits, make some ads and let him rip."

AND IT WORKED. Robinson got elected Lt. Governor - a heartbeat away from being governor - and he could still win the governor's mansion.

Think of how utterly corrupt and uncaring the Republican Party has to be to do such a thing. Now remember they did the same with Trump, and countless other scumbags.
