**WASHINGTON, D.C.** – Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC) has voiced serious concerns over allegations made against North Carolina Lieutenant Governor Mark Robinson, who is running for governor. Speaking on NBC News’ Meet The Press on Sunday, Graham described the charges, which include claims that Robinson posted on a porn site and referred to himself as a “black NAZI,” as “beyond unnerving.”

While Graham acknowledged that Robinson deserves a chance to defend himself, he stated that if the allegations are true, Robinson would be “unfit to serve for office.” He further suggested that if the claims are false, Robinson has grounds for a “libel” lawsuit against CNN, which published the report.

Graham asserted that Robinson claims the allegations are “artificially created” and that CNN is perpetuating them. He advised Robinson to pursue legal action against the network, calling the accusations “unbelievable.”

When asked whether former President Donald Trump should withdraw his endorsement of Robinson, Graham dodged the question, instead arguing that Trump would win the 2024 election regardless of Robinson’s fate.

This latest controversy surrounding Robinson adds to the heated political climate in North Carolina ahead of the gubernatorial election.
