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.

A shocking CNN report Thursday focuses on extremely racist and explicit posts Mark Robinson, the North Carolina Republican gubernatorial nominee, appears to have published on a pornography websites message board between 2008 and 2012.

In the posts, an account that appears to be Robinsons advocates for the return of slavery, writing, I would certainly buy a few and describing the author as a black NAZI.

Other posts describe an appreciation for watching transgender pornography and wistfully recalling the time as a teenager he spent hours secretly peeping on women in public gym showers.

The account and the comments predate Robinsons political debut. According to CNN, Robinson used his full name on his profile as well as an email address hes used elsewhere on the internet. Robinson also used the same username, minisoldr, elsewhere online.

Robinson tried to get ahead of the story Thursday by comparing himself to U.S. Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, dismissing the contents as salacious tabloid trash and pledging to remain in the race.
