Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee ® on Wednesday said 2024 will be the last election “decided by ballots rather than bullets” if former President Trump doesn’t win the presidential race because of his various legal battles.

In the latest episode of his show on TBN, Huckabee argued the legal woes now facing Trump are part of a politically motivated scheme from the Biden administration, an argument touted by many in the former president’s orbit.

“If these tactics end up working to keep Trump from winning or even running in 2024, it is going to be the last American election that will be decided by ballots rather than bullets,” Huckabee warned in his opening monologue.

Huckabee accused President Biden and his team of trying “to make sure that Donald Trump is not his opponent in 2024″ and “to destroy Trump in the courthouse rather than at the ballot box.” He also alleged the Justice Department, the IRS and the FBI are “conspiring to hide the Biden family crimes, while all the time being obsessed with charging Donald Trump with crimes.”

    They’re all about 'Murica and freedom as long as they’re getting their way.

    As soon as they’re not, that all goes out the window and it’s all about how they can get what they want through scheming, conniving, deception, threats, force, and obstruction.

      Yeah, the gop has no principles.

      They just say whatever if this help them enact christian and regressive laws.

      State rights are only mentionned to enact conservative policies, otherwise ignored when comes time to push federal laws.

      Children are out of limit for sex ed, but it is perfectly fine to endoctrinate them with jesus.

      Trans kids should not be allowed the treatment recommended by doctors, but gay kids should be sent to conversion camps mandated by the church.

      I could go on. They just use whatever bullshit argument like “protect the kids” because they can’t say the real reasons out loud. They probably think that this is also what liberals do, that this whole debate thing is just a game. Just say whatever makes you “win” the argument, you’re on Jesus side anyway and they’re not.
