We realize that in order to compete for oxygen in the Rethuglican clown
car bus it's necessary for other candidates to top the inflammatory hate speech of bloviating braggart
Donald "Rump" Trump. One can't overestimate the rabid right's appetite for outrageous, slanderous speech. Latest case in point, from theocrat and
girl's shower fantasizer Mike "Huckster" Huckabee as interviewed by the far-right Breitbart crapfactory:
"This president’s foreign policy is the most feckless in American history. It is so naive that he would trust the Iranians. By doing so, he will take the Israelis and march them to the door of the oven." (emphasis added)
Equating the nuclear arms agreement between the U.S. and five international powers and Iran with the murder of 6 million Jews is obscene and a denigration of the victims of the Holocaust. A comment like that should disqualify Huckster from public office, but the rabid right lives on that type of hate speech toward this Administration, so he outdid Rump this weekend. What a low bar.
UPDATE:
Huckster's being called out for his outrageous remarks:
“The particular comments of Mr. Huckabee are part of a general pattern that we’ve seen
that would be considered ridiculous if it weren’t so sad,” Obama said, speaking from Ethiopia. “Maybe it’s just an effort to push Mr. Trump out of the headlines.” [snip]
“Whatever one’s views of the nuclear agreement with Iran – and we
have been critical of it, noting that there are serious unanswered
questions that need to be addressed – comments such as those by Mike
Huckabee suggesting the president is leading Israel to another Holocaust
are completely out of line and unacceptable,” commented Jonathan A.
Greenblatt, national director of the Anti-Defamation League, in a statement.
