2. Oh, man. Brainwash 'em early to be little nazis.

Huckabee apparently will do anything for money. Him and his daughter are both scum...pushing this trump worship crap.

[uponit7771]

3. 100% a cult !!! Trump has NewsMax in his pocket so no need to have his own station

[gratuitous]

4. I will decline to click on it

But the still shot I'm seeing has what appears to be a logo for "the Kids Guide" and a grinning Mike Huckabee looking uncannily like Uncle Bad Touch of far too many nightmares.

5. A very effective way to get one's QAnon ass disowned.

"Mom, why is Grandma giving me all this stuff about gross old men praising other gross old men? Is she in a cult?"

[Hortensis]

10. Seriously. Wonder how many families are forced to protect

their children from what grandma or grandpa is spouting. The bad just keeps hurting.

[magicarpet]

6. A data base of grandpa Nazis and grand son Nazis too.

That will be worth big bucks for Huckabee when he puts a price tag on that contact data info.

7. The Hunkster family motto - e pluribus, stolidus

8. Of course: "Mike Huckabee's History For Kids Company Accused Of Scamming Parents"

Learn Our History, the company that former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee co-founded in 2011 “to make it fun for kids to learn American history,” has spent the past week funneling hundreds of thousands of dollars into Facebook ads promoting a “no-risk” deal. The two-time presidential candidate’s firm said it’s giving away its educational booklets — such as “The Kids Guide to President Trump” — for free, or just $1 per item, in a “patriotic bundle” special.

“The mainstream media doesn’t want your children to know the truth about President Trump and his achievements in office,” declared the recent ads for “The Kids Guide,” a new offshoot of Learn Our History that has also ramped up its Facebook spending to push the promotion. “That’s why Mike Huckabee’s team created ‘The Kids Guide to President Trump,’ and that’s why we’re making it free.”

But the offer is far from free. Parents across the country described a bait-and-switch scheme that they said duped them into signing up for $20-per-month subscriptions without their knowledge. Many said that Learn Our History ignored their repeated requests to cancel the subscriptions, leaving them locked into payments for products that they never wanted in the first place — all so their children can learn Huckabee’s version of history, which critics described as “pretend,” “kiddie propaganda” and “full of Christian nationalist revisionism and right-wing political propaganda.”



This isn’t the first time that Huckabee has cashed in on apparent scams. The former Fox News host has spent much of his post-gubernatorial life shilling for grifters, including the sellers of a $74 biblical cancer cure and a diabetes “reversal” treatment containing a “secret ingredient”: cinnamon. (“Let me tell you that diabetes can be reversed. I should know because I did it — and today you can, too!” he said in a 2015 infomercial before railing against prescription drugs, Big Pharma and the “mainstream medical community.”)

9. This is as close as The Producers' Springtime for Hitler as I've ever seen

The difference is, there is no hint of satire in the Newsmax ad.

I still wonder if those watching the ad on TV have their jaws dropping too.

[Hortensis]

11. I'd read that Newsmax gathers viewerships of marks for snake oil salesmen

and other predators, and here's slimedog Huckabee. Of course.

[kacekwl]

12. Clearly child abuse.

Lock him up.

[peggysue2]

13. The grift never ends

And if you can pollute some young minds in the process? A true winner bc you'll be training another generation of Trumpbots.

What's not to love?????

Ugh!

[Sneederbunk]

14. Don't watch Newsmax. Don't do it.

And if you do, don't repeat what you see.
