Ex-North Carolina GOP gov admits Republicans knew Mark Robinson was a 'ticking time bomb'​

North Carolina Lieutenant Governor Mark Robinson — who is currently the Republican nominee in this year's gubernatorial race — has recently been embroiled in an embarrassing scandal that could cost Republicans both the governorship and even the Tar Heel State's Electoral College votes.


Now, the Tar Heel State's former governor is saying his party knew better. The Hill reports that Pat McCrory, who was governor for four years between 2013 and 2017, is now suggesting the North Carolina Republican Party was already well-aware that Robinson's extreme positions could jeopardize the 2024 election and risk former President Donald Trump losing the state's 16 electoral votes.

“I got a feeling about a month ago, the Trump campaign was finding out that there could be some dirty laundry on Robinson,” McCrory said on CNN. He reminded viewers that Trump has been “avoiding” Robinson since August.

“The fact of the matter is for over two years, most of us knew this was a ticking time bomb," McCrory added.

According to McCrory, Robinson went from being "the most effective, dynamic, dangerous speaker I’ve ever seen in my political career" to being "dead in the water" with less than two months to go before Election Day. CNN reported in September that Robinson maintained an active presence on the adult website "Nude Africa" in the late aughts and early 2010s, called himself a "Black NAZI" and pined for the United States to return to practicing chattel slavery. In one thread of users asking for book recommendations, the account reported to be Robinson's replied that Adolf Hitler's manifesto was "a good read."


After details of the report began to emerge, Republicans called on Robinson to drop out of the race. However, by the time the report was public, the deadline for Robinson to be removed from the ballot had already passed. The embattled lieutenant governor has hired the Binnall Law Group to look into what he described as "false smears" contained in CNN's reporting, and maintains that the eyebrow-raising posts from the "minisoldr" account on the Nude Africa forum were not written by him.

McCrory noted in his CNN interview that the Tar Heel State is sometimes known for electing governors and presidents from opposing parties. Democratic governor Roy Cooper was elected in 2016 even as a majority of North Carolinians voted for Trump. And even though the state voted for Trump again in 2020, a majority also voted to keep Cooper in the governor's mansion.


“North Carolina has a tradition of ticket-splitting between the presidential races and statewide races, and I wouldn’t be surprised if that ticket-splitting continues,” McCrory said. However, he stressed that even 5,000 or 10,000 voters “could make the difference in all the electoral votes for either Harris or for former President Trump.”

Earlier this year, North Carolina Republican Party chairman Michael Whatley was selected as chairman of the Republican National Committee, while Trump's daughter-in-law Lara (married to Eric Trump) was made co-chair. McCrory said some of the blame for Robinson should be on Whatley, arguing that he should have "given the president fair warning that this guy could be a future dangerous advocate for President Trump."



Trump endorsed Robinson in March at a campaign rally in North Carolina, calling him an "unbelievable lieutenant governor" and describing him as "Martin Luther King on steroids." He has not rescinded his endorsement, though Robinson is reportedly no longer welcome at Trump's rallies in the wake of the report.

Conservative website claims to unearth 'despicable' anti-Obama Robinson comments​

The Bulwark — a national news and commentary website run by veteran conservative journalists, political strategists and commentators, including William Kristol, founder of the now defunct Weekly Standard — is reporting that it has unearthed more online comments posted by North Carolina Lt. Gov. and Republican gubernatorial candidate Mark Robinson in the years prior to his political career.


According to the report by the website’s White House correspondent, Andrew Egger, Robinson posted comments to an online news site in 2009 in which he advocated violence and attacked then-President Obama and Oprah Winfrey. Egger’s report highlights three comments:

“If the cops wanted to shoot an elderly black man they should have shot Al Sharpton,” Robinson commented in April 2009 on a NewsOne article about Sharpton participating in a police-brutality protest. “Closing his mouth would do this Nation good.”


“Obama IS a blackface step-in fectch-it [sic] for liberal white America,” Robinson wrote on the same site the same month.

“It’s Oprah the wicked witch, leading the way to sexing up the children!” he wrote beneath another article a few days later.

The report says that it uncovered the old comments — which it says were posted to the website newsone.com — “through an archive of old comments made on sites built with the content management system WordPress. Plugging Robinson’s personal email address (the same one that multiple outlets have reported on in recent days) into that archive, we were able to find his now-infamous ‘minisoldr’ username and the comments he left.”


In a statement to The Bulwark, Rev. Sharpton said, “This is a long line in despicable, self-hating, antisemitic rhetoric from a man who enjoys the support of Donald Trump and the Republican party. Now, his candidate in that state has suggested cops shoot me instead of some other victim. It’s clear that someone’s life is expendable to them, especially if you disagree on the issues.”

The report comes less than week after CNN reported that Robinson had made a series of cringe-inducing comments on a pornography website under the same online alias during the same general time period.

The tenor and tone of the comments reported by The Bulwark appears to be similar to those of previous controversial public statements Robinson has made — both prior to becoming Lt. Governor and during his term in office.

Robinson has vehemently denied the CNN report and says he has retained legal counsel to aid him in investigating and refuting it. The Bulwark says the Robinson campaign declined to comment when asked about its new discovery.

North Carolina lieutenant governor names new chief aide as staff departures grow​

RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) — North Carolina Republican Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson quickly named his next state government office chief Thursday, as a dozen workers have quit his office or gubernatorial campaign after last week's CNN report alleging he posted strongly worded racial and sexual


Robinson said he had elevated Deputy Chief of Staff Krishana Polite to become the next chief of staff in the Lieutenant Governor’s Office. The announcement came the day after current Chief of Staff and General Counsel Brian LiVecchi disclosed that he was resigning effective next week.

Polite “has been a great major asset to our great state for years,” Robinson wrote on X. “We are blessed to have her leading our administration.”

LiVecchi, who has served in Robinson's office since his term began in early 2021, confirmed Thursday that three other office workers were also resigning as of Oct. 1: communications director John Wesley Waugh, policy director Jonathan Harris and director of government affairs Nathan Lewis. The office, which is allocated $1.3 million in this year’s state budget, lists eight employees on its website. A lieutenant governor holds few inherent duties.



LiVecchi didn't give a reason for the departures, which were revealed a few days after the Robinson campaign's senior adviser said eight of the campaign's top staff members were stepping down, including himself, the campaign manager and finance director. Robinson, who would be the state’s first Black governor if elected, has said he will rebuild his campaign staff. A spokesperson said Thursday that he had no information on campaign staff hirings.

The personnel departures come as Republican officials and GOP groups have distanced themselves from Robinson mere weeks before the Nov. 5 election where he faces Democratic nominee Josh Stein, the sitting attorney general. Absentee voting has started. The Republican Governors Association said it's no longer supporting Robinson. And Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump, who endorsed Robinson before the March primary, hasn't mentioned Robinson at two North Carolina rallies held since last weekend.



Last week's CNN report said Robinson left statements on a porn site’s message board in which he referred to himself as a “black NAZI,” said he enjoyed transgender pornography, said in 2012 that he preferred Hitler to then-President Barack Obama and slammed the late Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. as “worse than a maggot.”

Robinson, who has denied writing the messages, already had a history of inflammatory comments about topics like abortion and LGBTQ+ rights that Stein and his allies have emphasized in opposing him on TV commercials and online. Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris' campaign and her party also are focused on linking Trump with Robinson to win the battleground state.

Robinson's campaign said this week that it had hired a Virginia law firm to investigate how what he calls “false smears” in the report came to be. Jesse Binnall, a partner in the law group, told Fox News that ”the voters need an answer before the election. And so we are going to move very quickly and still give them a very fulsome report.”



“We are going to investigate this strenuously,” said Binnall, whose clients have included Trump and his campaign. “We are going to leave no stone unturned. We’re going to be very, very aggressive.”

CNN hasn't commented on Robinson's accusations. But the network report said it matched details of the account on the message board to other online accounts held by Robinson by comparing usernames, a known email address and his full name. CNN reported details discussed by the account holder matched Robinson’s age, length of marriage and other biographical information.

Some people have been saying it’s a Richard Pryor burning yourself while on an alcohol and base cocaine rager type incident.

If I have to create stories so that Americans actually pay attention to what a scumbag this guy is, then that’s what I’m going to do.
