GOP presidential candidate former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee is defending GOP frontrunner Donald Trump against Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX)'s (R-TX) criticism.
The Cruz campaign is pointing to Trump's interview with Tim Russert from 1999, in which, according to the Cruz campaign, "Donald Trump asserts that New York 'views' and 'attitudes' are different than other places in the country, such as Iowa."
Huckabee was asked if he thinks Trump is now sincere in what he says. "I have no reason to doubt him. He's pretty outspoken, you got to give him credit for that."
Huckabee went on to criticize Cruz, although not by name.
If you want to talk about a candidate whose switched positions you got a bunch of them out there who changed themselves on Trans Pacific Partnership, on ethanol and on foreign policy and all over the board. So you know, Donald Trump's positions if they changed, they changed over 15 years not the last 15 minutes.
Huckabee, Cruz, and Trump are all speakers at the South Carolina Tea Party Convention in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.

Huckabee would be a great Press Secretary. His Fox host experience and his ability to communicate conservative principles are outstanding.
Agree.
That seals the deal. Can’t be for Trump if the Huckster is for him.
The Huckster will be back on Fox strumming his bass before year-end!
“Huckabee would be a great Press Secretary. His Fox host experience and his ability to communicate conservative principles are outstanding.”
i never thought about that, but you’re right, Huck would make a GREAT press secretary! Wonderful voice, down to earth, convincing, doesn’t get flustered, good sense of humor.
The RINOs have discovered Trump is one of them.
“Huckabee would be a great Press Secretary. His Fox host experience and his ability to communicate conservative principles are outstanding.”
I concur 100%.
Despicable Huckster sucking up for VP. So rich he ignores DT’s hundeds of flips then flops, then flips and flops all over gain.
I must be in a time warp.
pro-amnesty, pro-Dreamer- pro-in state tuition for illegal aliens supports the clinton donor. Nice support there
Trump will flip back to Democrat in less than a year if he is elected.
He’d sure be an improvement on the current crop of communication clowns the Democrats employ in Washington.
Huck has allowed envy to overtake him. He is now a minor player among evangelicals and that eats away at him. I wonder how many times as governor he adjusted his position to address changing realities. He really is going low-class!
I agree. He is skilled at verbal confrontations.
This is part of the huckster trying to mess up the Iowa caucuses because he and Santorum aren’t doing well
Nope, they don’t have a lens with a wide enough angle to get him inside camera shot. I guess they could do a split screen on him though.
Of, course Huck either missed the point or is just being loyal to his RINO and media pals.
I’ve thought so since ‘08. Plus, I have an ongoing fantasy of the White House Prees corps being disciplined by one of our own, and for that purpose, Huckabee is one of our own.
So, the Me-too Banties start taking sides.
Huckabee and some of the others smell VP. Now there’s an example of a real politician in action. They know when it’s time to suck up to Trump and carry his water.
