Trump Refuses to Talk About Mark Robinson at North Carolina Weekend Rally

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

58% : As a result, Trump -- who once lavished Robinson with praise even though his bigoted public statements were well documented -- chose not to mention him even once during a political rally in the state this past weekend.
41% : Polling shows that Trump and Kamala Harris are virtually tied in North Carolina, where Robinson is running for office.
41% : Trump is slightly ahead of Harris in the presidential race, receiving 49 percent support while she currently has 47 percent.
28% : Other polling in North Carolina shows an even tighter race -- according to an aggregate of polling data compiled by FiveThirtyEight, Trump is leading Harris on average by less than one point, again indicating that the race is a tie, just six weeks from Election Day.
19% : Trump is likely trying to minimize his connection to Robinson in light of the recent reports -- but if that's the case, his running mate J.D. Vance appears to have missed the memo.
