Walz said on Saturday that there are GOP gubernatorial candidates who "are proud to refer to themselves as Nazis."

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.”

      I can’t wait for that campaign commercial:

      “Who would you rather vote for, the Master Blaster, or the Master Baiter?”
