Video of Tim Walz blasting Mark Robinson's alleged Nazi remarks goes viral

A video of Minnesota Governor Tim Walz seemingly blasting North Carolina Lieutenant Governor Mark Robinson's alleged Nazi comments gained traction on social media Saturday.

Robinson's gubernatorial campaign for the Tar Heel State was rocked by a CNN report on Thursday alleging that Robinson made racist and sexist posts on a pornography site over a decade ago. The lieutenant governor has repeatedly denied writing the posts and has said he'll stay in the race, telling CNN that the alleged posts are "salacious tabloid lies."

CNN reported that from 2008 to 2012, Robinson, whose gubernatorial bid is backed by former President and GOP nominee Donald Trump, allegedly made a series of inflammatory comments on a message board of the pornography site Nude Africa, which included calling himself a "black NAZI."

Every time I see him, I like him more. When the crowd starts going nuts, it's obvious he's genuinely touched by it.

The guy is just amazingly genuine and nice.

He is the actual decent midwesterner that the Republicans pretend to be.

I’m sure Larry Hogan is squirming with how much he fucking wishes he was Tim Walz. Ugh I’m glad we got a new Governor.

He's the decent Midwesterner Republicans used to be.

Before they traded it all for Christian sharia law and lots of meth.
