Two-Time GOP Presidential Race Loser Knows Trump Has Momentum Because People in Airports Tell Him So
Mike Huckabee Says People Don’t Publicly Say They’re Supporting Trump for Fear of Being Called ‘Homophobe’
There is a quiet, silent majority of people who will vote for Donald Trump but aren’t telling pollsters or saying so in public because they’re afraid of having their cars egged, Mike Huckabee said Sunday on Fox News.Â
The two-time Republican presidential candidate, an ordained Baptist minister and former governor of Arkansas who has led millions in his war against the LGBT community and progressives says people in airports, on airplanes, and in hotel lobbies across the country quietly are telling him, “I’m with Trump.”
Huckabee claimed that “people who openly support Trump…get called ‘bigots,’ ‘homophobes,’ ‘Islamophobes,’ ‘xenophobes,’ some kind of ‘phobes.'”
Huckabee, 61, whose daughter is a top spokesperson for the Trump campaign, also claimed there is a general “frustration that the media will not give attention to the revelations of WikiLeaks,” and “continue to ignore the obvious things that disqualify Hillary Clinton from ever getting near the White House again – even as a visitor.”
Huckabee did not name what those “things” that would prevent Clinton from ever even visiting the White House might be.
The media has for weeks revealed the contents of hacked emails published by WikiLeaks, but many also realize the hacks were conducted by Vladimir Putin’s Russian government and the emails could easily could have been altered either by Julian Assange, who has said he has an agenda against Hillary Clinton, or by Putin himself, who would be exceptionally pleased should Donald Trump win the presidency.
