Mike Huckabee the latest GOP candidate to split with Trump on immigration

“What I have been doing is focusing on what my own views of immigration happen to be, rather than weighing in on getting in this battle of, are we with Trump or against Trump?” Huckabee said on CNN’s “State of the Union.” “I say some things very differently. I say every night, I get on my knees and thank God I’m in a country people are trying to break into, rather than one they’re trying to break out of.”

While some immigrants may have “nefarious goals,” Huckabee said most of them come to the U.S. for the opportunity to be Americans.

“They come to help their families, some of the hardest-working people…and I think this is often lost — some of the most conservative, family-oriented and faith-based people I have ever witnessed,” he said.
