On the Republican side, former Arkansas governor and Fox News host Mike Huckabee has announced his bid for the presidency. In his kickoff address, Huckabee invoked an anti-abortion and anti-LGBT message.
Mike Huckabee: “But we’ve lost our way morally. We’ve witnessed the slaughter of over 55 million babies in the name of choice, and we are now threatening the foundation of religious liberty by criminalizing Christianity and demanding that we abandon biblical principles of natural marriage. Many of our politicians — many of our politicians have surrendered to the false god of judicial supremacy, which would allow black-robed and unelected judges the power to make law as well as enforce it.”
