Mark Robinson, GOP Nominee for NC Governor, Faces Backlash for Comparing ACA to Slavery

Robinson's controversial statements on health care and other issues have sparked criticism as he campaigns for governor.

Mark Robinson, endorsed by Donald Trump for governor of North Carolina, has compared the Affordable Care Act (ACA) to slavery, sparking controversy.
Robinson has expressed a desire to fully repeal the ACA without a replacement, diverging from his party's 'repeal and replace' stance.
His opposition to Medicaid expansion in North Carolina contrasts with the state's recent bipartisan support for the program.
Robinson's history of controversial remarks extends beyond health care, including derogatory comments about women, LGBTQ+ individuals, and minorities.
Democrats in North Carolina aim to use Robinson's stance on health care as a key issue in the upcoming gubernatorial race against him.
