Mark Robinson,
has admitted he "misled" voters during his unsuccessful 2024 gubernatorial campaign
when he denied posting racist and offensive comments on a pornography website
– suggesting he did so to protect Donald Trump’s successful presidential run.
Robinson, who worked in furniture manufacturing before entering politics in 2020, told the "After the Call" podcast on Thursday:

Il travaille fort tout le temps
Pour un boss qui connait pas même son nom
