Huckabee: Reagan Said Trust But Verify; Obama ‘Is Trust But Vilify’

‘Obama trusts his enemies and vilifies those who disagrees with him’

BAIER: “Governor Huckabee, what do you think about what Senator Paul just said?”

HUCKABEE: “Ronald Reagan said ‘trust, but verify.’ President Obama is ‘trust, but vilify.’ He trusts our enemies and vilifies everyone who disagrees with him. And the reason we disagree with him has nothing to do with party. (Applause) It has to do with the incredibly dangerous place that this world is gonna be as a result of a deal in which we got nothing. We didn't even get four hostages out. We got nothing, and Iran gets everything they want. We said we would have anywhere, anytime negotiations and inspections, we gave that up. We said that we would make sure that they didn't have any nuclear capacity, we gave that up. The president can't tell you what we got. I'll tell you what the world got. The world has a burgeoning nuclear power that didn't, as the Soviets, say ‘we might defend ourselves in a war.’ What the Iranians have said is, ‘we will wipe Israel off the face of the map, and we will bring death to America.’ When someone points a gun at your head and loads it, by God, you ought to take them seriously, and we need to take that seriously.” (Applause)
