Republican presidential candidate Mike Huckabee says the questioner at a Donald Trump rally in New Hampshire who said President Obama was a muslim might have been "a plant" there to stir up controversy.
"There have been dispatches from all over the world that should have made some major headlines," the former Arkansas governor said on his paywalled daily audio podcast The Huckabee Exclusive.
Huckabee cited reports of ISIS militants destroying Christian churches, killing Christians, and using churches as venues for executions, but said the media was only concerned with a man at a Trump rally who might have been a plant trying to create controversy.
"Yet the press in the U.S. seems more exercised over an accusation that Obama is a muslim by some anonymous person at a Trump rally -- possibly even a plant sent there for no other reason than to stir up phony controversy," Huckabee stated.
