Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris is drawing ties between former President Donald Trump and North Carolina GOP gubernatorial candidate Mark Robinson, following a bombshell report revealing lewd and racist comments Robinson made on a porn website.
In a series of ad videos posted to X formerly Twitter the Harris campaign highlighted Trumps repeated praise of Robinson, whos now under fire for reportedly referring to himself as a Black Nazi in pseudonymous forum posts . In March, Trump endorsed Robinson at a rally in Greensboro, North Carolina, calling him better than civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr.
This is Martin Luther King on steroids, Trump said of Robinson at the time.
Meanwhile, Trump argued this week that rhetoric from President Joe Biden and Harris is causing me to be shot at, although the two Democrats have condemned violence in the wake of a second assassination attempt on Trumps life.
A man was arrested Sunday after Secret Service agents accompanying Trump during a round of golf spotted the muzzle of an assault rifle through the shrubbery by Trumps golf course in West Palm Beach, Florida. The FBI said the incident appeared to be an attempted assassination.
While posting about the news, Trump continued his anti-immigrant fearmongering after his running mate spread a conspiracy theory that Haitian immigrants in Springfield, Ohio, were stealing local pets for food. Vance continued to promote that narrative even as it was debunked by multiple local officials.

Congress has an immediate obligation to do two things: responsibly fund the federal government and ensure the security of our elections,\" Johnson said in a statement Tuesday.
Because we owe this to our constituents, we will move forward on Wednesday with a vote on the 6-month CR with the SAVE Act attached,\" Johnson added, referring to a continuing resolution to fund the government and the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act.
Johnson had initially scheduled a vote on the two measures for last week, but postponed it amid opposition from several Republicans plus most Democrats, if not all of them. It's not clear if any haters have come around. Last week, Johnson refused to rule out an eventual vote on a clean government funding bill, without the voter fraud piece attached.
The SAVE Act is designed to prevent noncitizens from voting in federal elections, something that rarely happens because it's already illegal. Johnson has promoted the bill as a way of hyping former president Donald Trump's false claims that elections are rigged against him. He has cited no evidence that noncitizens could actually sway an election.
Voter registration forms require people to attest to their citizenship under penalty of perjury. A key provision of the SAVE Act would require actual proof of citizenship for voter registration, such as a birth certificate and driver's license.
\"I urge all of my colleagues to do what the overwhelming majority of the people of this county rightfully demand and deserve prevent non-American citizens from voting in American elections,\" Johnson said.

Mike Johnson Announces Vote On Government Funding Tied To Voter Fraud Bill
House Speaker Mike Johnson announced the House would vote this week on a government funding resolution, paired with a voter fraud bill that will likely doom its chances in the House.
Congress has an immediate obligation to do two things: responsibly fund the federal government and ensure the security of our elections," Johnson said in a statement Tuesday.
Because we owe this to our constituents, we will move forward on Wednesday with a vote on the 6-month CR with the SAVE Act attached," Johnson added, referring to a continuing resolution to fund the government and the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act.
Johnson had initially scheduled a vote on the two measures for last week, but postponed it amid opposition from several Republicans plus most Democrats, if not all of them. It's not clear if any haters have come around. Last week, Johnson refused to rule out an eventual vote on a clean government funding bill, without the voter fraud piece attached.
The SAVE Act is designed to prevent noncitizens from voting in federal elections, something that rarely happens because it's already illegal. Johnson has promoted the bill as a way of hyping former president Donald Trump's false claims that elections are rigged against him. He has cited no evidence that noncitizens could actually sway an election.
Voter registration forms require people to attest to their citizenship under penalty of perjury. A key provision of the SAVE Act would require actual proof of citizenship for voter registration, such as a birth certificate and driver's license.
"I urge all of my colleagues to do what the overwhelming majority of the people of this county rightfully demand and deserve prevent non-American citizens from voting in American elections," Johnson said.
