Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee has for weeks told Fox News and others that he would rather talk about his campaign than score political points by criticizing Trump. However, Trump’s comments about Fox anchor Megyn Kelly this weekend and reporters’ hunting for a reaction have practically forced a response
Huckabee told ABC's "This Week" that other candidates are struggling to get out their message "because all the air in the balloon is going to Donald Trump right now."
On Saturday, at the RedState Gathering, an annual forum in Atlanta for conservative activists, Huckabee avoided commenting on Trump. But he also seemed exasperated by it all, snapping at reporters this weekend after being asked several Trump-related questions.
Kentucky GOP Sen. Rand Paul, who battled with Trump on Thursday night during the first primary debates of the 2016 presidential cycle, returned Sunday to his attack on Trump who has knocked fellow GOP candidate and former Texas Gov. Rick Perry and Vietnam veteran and Arizona Republican Sen. John McCain among others.
“I don't think vulgarity equates to insight,” Paul told “Fox News Sunday.” “Because you can shout and call … someone stupid or call someone fat, is that really what we're going to make the decision on for who is going to be our nominee?”
Paul also said he was elected to the Senate as part of the Tea Party movement, which was a response to “fake conservative” and Republicans who were for ObamaCare and the bank bailouts.
