Rumors are flying that a devastating story about North Carolina Lieutenant Governor and Republican gubernatorial nominee Mark Robinson is about to drop — and Donald Trump’s presidential campaign is reportedly pressuring Robinson to withdraw from the race.
According to The Carolina Journal, “Robinson is under pressure from staff and members of the Trump campaign to withdraw from the governor’s race due to the nature of the story, which they say involves activity on adult websites in 2000s,” but “Robinson has resisted withdrawing and privately denies the story.”
Trump endorsed Robinson at a rally in March during which he called the lieutenant governor “Martin Luther King [Jr.] on steroids,” “better than Martin Luther King,” and even “Martin Luther King times two.”
Robinson is already an enormously controversial candidate who has been widely criticized for his rhetoric, which has included Holocaust denial, disparagement of Michelle Obama as a man, Barack Obama as a “top-ranking demon,” and advancement of the conspiracy theory that the Rothschild family is one of the Bible’s Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse.
In a widely publicized speech earlier this year, Robinson submitted that “We now find ourselves struggling with people who have evil intent. You know, there’s a time when we used to meet evil on the battlefield, and guess what we did to it? We killed it! … When the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor, what did we do? We flew to Japan! And we killed the Japanese Army and Navy! … We didn’t argue and capitulate and talk about, well, maybe we shouldn’t fight the Nazis that hard. No, they’re bad. Kill them. Some liberal somewhere is going to say that sounds awful. Too bad. Get mad at me if you want to.”
“Some folks need killing! It’s time for somebody to say it. It’s not a matter of vengeance. It’s not a matter of being mean or spiteful. It’s a matter of necessity!” he concluded. “When you have wicked people doing wicked things, torturing and murdering and raping. It’s time to call out, uh, those guys in green and go have them handled. Or those boys in blue and have them go handle it….”
