Mike Huckabee’s Disgusting Cinco De Mayo ‘Joke’ Goes Perfectly With Donald Trump’s Taco Bowl

It was hard to beat Donald Trump’s Cinco de Mayo taco bowl for the “Insulting Hispanics While Pretending To Honor Them” award but Mike Huckabee found a way. Heck, he didn’t even pretend much.

Today, Fox News contributor Huckabee tweeted:

For Cinco de Mayo I will drink an entire jar of hot salsa and watch old Speedy Gonzales cartoons and speak Spanish all day. Happy CdMayo!
— Gov. Mike Huckabee (@GovMikeHuckabee) May 5, 2017

This is nothing but mean-spirited. Considering that Huckabee is an ordained minister, it’s especially repulsive.

Not surprisingly, the Twitterverse did not take his tweet well.

So “good Christian” Huckabee attacked his critics instead of taking the personal responsibility he espouses for others. Plus, we got a another taste of his "humor."

To humorless trolls who soiled themselves re: my earlier tweet-stop following me;follow someone sensitive and kind like Stephen Colbert

Do you think Huckabee got his Cinco de Mayo “humor” from Trump? Who could forget that Huckabee’s man in the White House tweeted this last year?

Happy #CincoDeMayo! The best taco bowls are made in Trump Tower Grill. I love Hispanics! https://t.co/ufoTeQd8yA pic.twitter.com/k01Mc6CuDI

Can’t wait for next year!

Huckabee’s ‘sensitive and kind’ response just goes to underline the essential difference between many right-wingers and the rest of humanity. Generally speaking, everyday folk are, if not overflowing with kindness and charity, at least not seething with spite and jealously, plotting and planning to see others suffer.

I’m surprised Mike keeps tweeting. He has a lot of followers who post things like "How do you say “your son is a dog murderer” in Spanish?" and "Is your son planning to kill a dog for Cinco de Mayo?’

They’re quite dedicated.

Huckabee is an ordained minister. That’s not a stretch. But for him think that anyone who has trouble with his ‘joke’ must, therefore, approve of Colbert’s ill-advised comment suggests a sort of dualistic thinking that continues to make religion appear to many as unreasonable. That’s the stretch!

These want to be Christians are not BORN again. For him and so many others this scripture abounds in their lives Proverbs 14:12.

May the Frito Bandito take a large dump in Gomer Huckabee’s taco salad.

The best taco bowels are made in Trump Tower Grill.

This is off topic. It involves another major gem against the Foxies. This NYC street rat comes clean.

To call him an ‘ordained minister’ is a stretch. He’s a fool.

When he finally disappears under the coming tsunami of revulsion against Trump and all his enablers, I’ll remember Huckabee for two things – the way he was sucked into pardoning dangerous thugs when they claimed ‘miraculous’ acceptance of JC, and his hilariously mistaken belief that anything he ever said was remotely funny.
