Huckabee was blaming the victim, criticizing Mayor Cruz for not "asking"

for things she needed. More begging and appreciation! She admits to stacking the deck by surrounding Trump with a "couple of dozen other mayors" who were there to offer up congratulatory appreciation for the Dear Leader, and then she chastised Cruz for staying silent. Huckabee took another swipe at Cruz for daring to go on TV and be critical of the Trump administration's response.

Today she kept repeating that she was only going to allow one question per reporter. So there you go, she can lie with impunity just by impliment a gag rule that lets her say anything she wants to.
