No, Huckabee jumped in front of a massive train and rode it. Don’t get me wrong, he did a good job on that, and I supported it, but he was more on top of that wave than he was pushing it. Especially among the libertarian crowd, who were there in large numbers and they were there to protest government thugs denying buidling permits and so on because of what a CEO said his personal beliefs were.
Oh I thought he was the first one to come up with it??
Where did the idea originate?? Maybe just on the internet somewhere?
I thought he had announced it on his show. “Such and such day will be Chick Fil A Appreciation Day” as if he was deeming it that.
See this here says he organized it. But maybe it had already started and he helped push it.
