In todays Republican Party, its difficult to really know where the bottom is or who nauseates me the most. Not too long ago, without a doubt, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) topped my list as the Republican I disliked the most. While hes still right near the top of my list, nowadays, Im not sure if theres just one person who can occupy that spot. From Donald Trump, to Speaker of the House Paul Ryan, down to sniveling weasels like Rep. Devin Nunes (R-CA) and Trey Gowdy (R-SC), theres a plethora of options within the GOP where anyone can say this person is the worst and it would be difficult to argue against whoever they named.
However, its not just Republicans who are currently in office who routinely prove that theyre awful human beings.
Case in point, former GOP presidential candidate Mike Huckabee who, in my opinion, doesnt get nearly enough attention for being a fairly big scumbag in his own right. This is the guy whos based a lot of his career on opposing equality for the LGBT community (even going as far as to say hed call down fire from God if same-sex marriage became legal), who used Kim Daviss unconstitutional hypocrisy to try to boost his own stature prior to launching his 2016 presidential bid.
He took his anti-LGBT bigotry to another new level of low during an interview with conservative radio host Laura Ingraham when he essentially accused Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) of being a homosexual.

Now we all know that a true Xian would never judge someone like that especially since in the Gospels Jesus commanded, "judge not least ye be judged" but no where in the Gospels does Jesus ever say anything against homosexuals.
If there's a Hell and what Jesus said in the Gospels is true, than I suspect Hucklepee will be down there in the company of many other so called 'christians' who, when it came to living the life and doing the deeds as Jesus taught his followers to do, weren't truly followers of Christ but rather of ego, greed and/or false prophets.
