Last night, Mike Huckabee gave a disastrous interview with Fox News host Megyn Kelly, where he defended Donald Trump’s racist attack on the judge overseeing one of the fraud cases involving his Trump University businesses by insisting that the presumptive GOP nominee’s statements were not racist because “there is not a thing in his life that he has ever shown” that could be seen as racist.
Huckabee suggested that Judge Gonzalo Curiel — whom Trump has repeatedly said could not give him a fair hearing because he’s “a Mexican” — has a “built-in liberal bias” and may have a “political agenda.”
When Kelly asked Huckabee what evidence he has that Curiel has an anti-Trump political bias, Huckabee admitted that he had absolutely nothing to substantiate the comment he just made: “Honestly, I’ve not spent a whole long of time digging through the details.”
