Mike Huckabee says he’s not buying reports that Democrats will recapture Congress in this year's midterm elections.
"There's been a lot of talk about how the Democrats are going to take back Congress in a 'blue wave,' but I keep noting the many holes in that theory," the former Arkansas governor and two-time GOP presidential candidate wrote Thursday on his blog MikeHuckabee.com.
"For one thing, the main motivating force behind their voters’ passion seems to be that they hate-hate-hate Trump. But even party leaders such as Nancy Pelosi know that impeaching a president for no reason other than you’re mad that he beat you in the election is a loser, and they’re trying to downplay that possibility.
"Otherwise, the party’s platform so far consists of … taking away people’s guns; raising taxes back up; opening the borders to illegal immigrants and disbanding ICE; guaranteeing everyone a government job at a time of record low unemployment; and restoring the same brilliant foreign policy that gave us ISIS and a nuclear North Korea, two things [President Donald] Trump has managed to bring to heel just in his first year. Sound like a winning message to you?"
