Though he shares a similar love of Christ and fear of transgender people as the reality TV family, presidential hopeful and major dick Rick Santorum is finally distancing himself from the Duggars. He told Good Morning America yesterday that he is “sickened” by Josh Duggar’s admission that he molested some of his sisters.

“I was sickened by it, just sickened by it,” he said. “I pray for those girls, in particular. To have gone through that is just hard to think about.”

Santorum, who launched his 2016 presidential campaign Wednesday, received the official Duggar stamp of approval in 2012. The evangelical family campaigned for him, and Josh just wished him a happy birthday earlier this month.

All that appears to be over now, but don’t worry about the Duggars. They still have one backwards, bigoted politician on their side: Mike Huckabee.
