Robinson does nazi leaving the race
Looks like what was most likely a Republican plan to try to install a somewhat less disastrous gubernatorial candidate in North Carolina has failed:
Mark Robinson, the Republican candidate for governor in North Carolina, vowed Thursday to remain in the race following a report that he made dozens of lewd and inflammatory comments more than 10 years ago on the message board of a pornography website.
The report, published by CNN, said Robinson, in posts to a pornographic website called Nude Africa, called himself a “black NAZI,” expressed support for bringing back slavery, said he enjoyed watching transgender pornography and recounted sexually graphic stories, including one about his memory of “peeping” on women in gym showers when he was 14. The posts were made under the username “minisoldr” from 2008 to 2012, CNN reported, before Robinson, who was elected lieutenant governor in 2020, entered politics.
In a video posted to X ahead of the story’s publication, Robinson denied the report, calling it “tabloid trash.”
“Let me reassure you: The things that you will see in that story, those are not the words of Mark Robinson. You know my words, you know my character, and you know that I have been completely transparent in this race and before,” Robinson said in the video.
“We are staying in this race, we are in it to win it, and we know that, with your help, we will,” he added.
The joke here being that his character was in fact well-known ex ante, which makes it hard for a party of total degenerates and their apologists/collaborators to explain why he is somehow beyond the pale.
And, hey, if Kamala Harris squeaks out a victory in North Carolina he might in his own way be an American hero!
