In an interview with conservative website Breitbart.com, Republican presidential candidate finally just goes for it, comparing Barack Obama to Adolf Hitler: “It is so naive that he would trust the Iranians. By doing so, he will take the Israelis and march them to the door of the oven.”

“This president’s foreign policy is the most feckless in American history,” Huckabee said. “This is the most idiotic thing, this Iran deal. It should be rejected by both Democrats and Republicans in Congress and by the American people. I read the whole deal. We gave away the whole store. It’s got to be stopped.”

(This is not actually true.)

Huckabee went on to discuss his chances in the 2016 election. “People don’t vote for someone they don’t like,” he said. “So I just got a make sure I don’t start doing stuff that make people stop liking me.”
