Everywhere we look in the Republican party there are thugs! And remember that he is endorsed by Trump...
The Washington PostBy Patrick Svitek, Amy Gardner and Hannah KnowlesSeptember 19, 2024Mark Robinson, the Republican nominee for governor in North Carolina, vowed to continue his campaign Thursday amid the fallout over a CNN story about comments he made on a pornographic website’s message board more than a decade ago.CNN published the story Thursday afternoon, reporting that Robinson had called himself a “black NAZI!” on the forum in 2010 and voiced support for bringing back slavery the same year. Robinson, who has expressed hostility toward transgender people in his campaign, also said on the message board that he likes to watch transgender pornography.CNN reported that many of Robinson’s comments were “gratuitously sexual and lewd in nature,” and were made between 2008 and 2012 on “Nude Africa,” a pornographic website that includes a message board. CNN said the comments were made under the username minisoldr, a moniker Robinson used frequently online.Robinson denied making the comments to CNN.The GOP candidate sought to get ahead of the story with a video he posted on social media shortly before the report’s publication.“Let me reassure you: The things that you will see in that story, those are not the words of Mark Robinson,” Robinson said in the video, posted Thursday afternoon on X. He ended the video by declaring he is “staying in this race.”
So he is saying that the story is fake? Gee, now that's original.
The New Republic writes,
The Trump-endorsed candidate in North Carolina’s gubernatorial race could soon lose his spot on the ticket due to an in-house ouster.North Carolina Lieutenant Governor Mark Robinson is a Hitler-quoting, gay-bashing, conspiracy-touting antisemite, and has drawn immediate comparisons to Donald Trump for his bombastic orations and loyal GOP following, along with his own laundry list of controversies.
Why am I not surprised to hear this about a Republican?
