During a Sunday appearance on Jen Psaki's MSNBC show, Senator Raphael Warnock tore into Mark Robinson, calling him "White Supremacy in Blackface."
Raphael Warnock was once like Mark Robinson, an African American man running for major office in a Southern state. The similarities between the two men end there.
Robinson made waves last week after news broke of alleged comments he made on pornography forums including a message where he referred to himself as a 'Black. Nazi.'
During the Sunday segment, Psaki asked her guest, "You will actually stand today at the same pulpit where Martin Luther King preached, you have a long history in the state of Georgia. I just want to know what you make of this and how they’re talking about his legacy."
Warnock dropped the hammer on his opponent, saying:
"I can tell you as the pastor of Ebenezer Baptist Church where Martin Luther King Jr. served, that Mark Robinson is no Martin Luther King Jr. He is the antithesis of everything that Dr. King represented. He is white supremacy in blackface, as he talks about his desire to bring slavery back. I mean, this — this talk is way beyond the pale. Calling himself a black Nazi — these are his words."
The Georgia senator continued, "And I think that the people of North Carolina need to take note of the fact that this is Donald Trump’s candidate. This is who he keeps pushing and encouraging. This is who they — he thinks should represent them."
