**Welcome to Inside Washington. Greetings from Wilmington, NC. We have 46 days until Election Day.**
The North Carolina political world — and American politics — received a bombshell on Thursday when CNN reported that Mark Robinson, the state's Republican lieutenant governor, had frequently commented on a porn site about the fact he enjoyed watching pornography featuring transgender women and said, "And yeah I'm a 'perv' too."
Robinson's porn preferences would not be an issue except that he has said that people "who support this mass delusion called transgenderism" want "to turn God's creation backwards, and make it into a sickening image of rebellion to glorify Satan." He also said: "Dear Transgender crowd, You CANNOT tran-sin GOD'S creation. Sincerely, A Bible Thumper."
On top of that, Robinson reportedly called himself "a black NAZI" and extolled the virtues of slave ownership on the same site, saying: "I wish they would bring it (slavery) back. I would certainly buy a few."
Robinson has vehemently denied making any such comments and told CNN that the account wasn't his.
The fallout from KFile's reporting has been swift, however. So far, Robinson has shown no willingness to drop out of the race, despite the fact that polling had shown he was already trailing Attorney General Josh Stein, the Democratic nominee for governor. It's an ironic turn of events that Robinson, who previously quoted Hitler, will now likely lose, making Stein the Old North State's first Jewish governor.
