GREENSBORO, N.C. (AP) — Former President Donald Trump has pledged to endorse Republican Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson for North Carolina governor. Many delegates expect his endorsement will cement Robinson’s place as the front-runner in a competitive GOP primary. Trump threw his support behind Robinson at the state GOP convention in Greensboro during one of his first public appearances since he was hit this week with a historic indictment. Trump faces 37 felony counts for improperly storing sensitive documents at his Florida estate. Trump said he would save his formal endorsement for another time but told Robinson from the stage, “You can count on it, Mark.”
