Trump-backed North Carolina Republican governor candidate calls himself 'black Nazi' & 'perv' on porn website

North Carolina Republican and candidate for governor Mark Robinson received a major backlash after it was reported that he referred to himself as “black NAZI” on a pornography website. The current lieutenant governor has already been marred with scandals and is known for delivering controversial comments.

According to an explosive report by CNN, Robinson often referred to himself as “perv” in the archive messages of the website’s chat box. The report suggested that the Republican politician “enjoyed watching transgender pornography”. The messages were made between 2008 and 2012 on “Nude Africa”, which is a pornographic website that includes a message board.

Messages from 2010 indicated that he expressed support for reinstating slavery. “Slavery is not bad. Some people need to be slaves. I wish they would bring it [slavery] back. I would certainly buy a few,” he wrote in October of that year. Meanwhile, in March 2012, when former US President Barack Obama was in power, Robinson reportedly wrote in the chat box that he would " take Hitler over any of the shit that’s in Washington right now!”

Robinson denies accusations

As the damaging report swirled major headlines, the North Carolina Republican posted a video in which he accused his opponent of leaking the story on CNN. Robinson vehemently denied the allegations and made it clear that he never wrote such messages.

“You know my words. You know my character,” Robinson said. “And you know that I have been completely transparent in this race and before. Folks, this race right now, our opponents are desperate to shift the focus here from the substantive issues and focus on what you are concerned with, to salacious tabloid trash. We cannot allow that to happen," he added.

The so-called Conservative leader likened the story to the “high-tech lynching” of the US Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas during the contentious confirmation hearings three decades ago. “We’re not going to let them do that. We are staying in this race. We’re in it to win it,” he said.

Robinson has a history of making controversial and politically incorrect statements. During the pandemic, he described Covid-19 as a “globalist” conspiracy to destroy former US President Donald Trump. In 2021, he referred to transgender and homosexual people as “filth”. He has also said people who are gay are equivalent to “what the cows leave behind” as well as “maggots” and “flies”.

Trump’s campaign urges Robinson to drop out since North Carolina is at stake

It is pertinent to note that Robinson is North Carolina’s first Black lieutenant governor and he will be facing Democrat Josh Stein, the state attorney general, in the November polls. After the release of the scandalous CNN report, several Republicans are reportedly pressuring him to withdraw from the race.

According to the Emerson College Poll, the Republican candidate has not led the poll since June and is currently eight points behind the opposition. Amid the chaos, reports are also emerging that the Trump campaign had asked Robinson to leave the race, and would no longer allow Robinson to appear on stage with the former president.

Interestingly, in March this year, Trump gave his full-throated endorsement to Robinson and called him “Martin Luther King on steroids”. However, in the recent CNN report, Robinson was quoted denigrating the American civil rights activist in obscene, racist terms in posts from 2011. In the same message box, he called King a “commie bastard”, “worse than a maggot”, a “ho fucking, phoney”, and a “huckster”. “I’m not in the KKK. They don’t let blacks join,” Robinson posted, according to CNN. “If I was in the KKK I would have called him Martin Lucifer Koon!” North Carolina is a critical swing state in the presidential election. Hence, the report can be damaging to Trump’s bid for the White House as well.
