Huckabee Slams Former Rivals for Breaking Pledge

Mike Huckabee: “To pretend that Trump is being heavy-handed by saying that those who don’t endorse him won’t speak is not only unfair, it also misses the bigger story: Why aren’t we talking about the outright lie told by a number of my fellow GOP presidential contenders on national television during the very first debate in August of 2015?”

“We were asked point blank if we would support the eventual nominee who survived the primary process and won the nomination. And we all said ‘yes’ except for Trump, who declared that he wanted to make sure he was treated ‘fairly.’ Not long after, Reince Priebus, the Republican National Committee chairman, went to Trump’s New York office and extracted from him a pledge that he would also support the nominee of the party.”
