Huckabee Praises Trump’s ‘Peaceful Revolution’ — He’s Not Racist and His Supporters Aren’t Stupid

Huckabee argued that the anti-Trump Republican establishment needed to wise up to the fact that his likely nomination reflected the will of an angry electorate. “The establishment Republicans are all bedwetting over this,” he said, “but they don’t seem to understand that we have an election. I just believe that at some point we need to recognize that if you want to oppose Donald Trump, do it, but don’t pretend that somehow all these voters who have gone out and voted for him are stupid. They’re not stupid. I’ll tell you what they are — they’re angry at the very establishment that is going nuts because Donald Trump is doing so well.”

That establishment, he added emphatically, was the problem.

Huckabee brushed aside the notion that Trump was aligned with racist or white supremacist ideologies, dismissively repeating Trump’s excuse that, when asked about his David Duke endorsement, his earpiece had malfunctioned. “I don’t know what he heard in his earpiece,” Huckabee said. “I wasn’t there. But I don’t think there’s any question […] Donald Trump is not some kind of racist bigot.” He suggested that it was absurd for some people in the party to consider that a “big concern.”

God bless Huckabee. And to hell with anyone who would adopt Hillary’s talking points which effectively is saying the majority of the Republucan base that has had enough of illegal aliens, olen borders, and who wants the wall, are KKK racists. You insult the vast majority of the Republican base.
