Colbert Brutally Mocks GOP Candidate’s Prolific Porn Habit
Republican North Carolina gubernatorial candidate Mark Robinson came under fire this week over reports that he was once a frequent customer at his local porn shop, to the point where the employee there knew him by name and remembered him decades later.
The news wouldn’t be that big of a deal, if not for the fact that he is running on a heavily evangelical Christian platform. Though Robinson denies the claims, the scandal caught Stephen Colbert’s attention during his monologue on Wednesday.
“A North Carolina news site is reporting that Robinson went to a porn shop nearly every day of the week in the ‘90s and early 2000s,” Colbert said. “Well, of course you got to go every day, otherwise you’re not getting the freshest porn. It’s not like they refrigerate the stuff.”
