Mike Huckabee Claims the White House is Running Like ‘Five-Star Restaurant’ — Immediately Gets Dunked on Twitter
Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee told Fox News’ “Fox & Friends” on Tuesday that the White House may seem chaotic, but it is running like “a five-star restaurant.”
Huckabee, who is also the father of White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders, was responding to a comment from Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, who said that “chaos and incompetence” keeps the Trump Administration from fulfilling its responsibilities.
“This is a mantra that the Democrats have decided they are going to use, there is chaos in the administration,” Huckabee said Tuesday morning. “Have you ever been to a restaurant behind the scenes in the kitchen? I mean, I’m talking about a five-star restaurant.”
“It seems like there is chaos back there,” he continued. “Here’s what happens when they bring the dish out and it’s absolutely fantastic, people are saying, ‘Boy, this is amazing, this is the best I have ever had.’ But if they saw what they called chaos was actually a very careful just execution of getting it done right.”
He added that Americans should disregard leaks, heavy staff turnover and books about the administration that depict it as disorganized and ineffective.

“What I think people are missing is that this is not chaos, this is an administration who has a leader who has so many things going on, is pushing so many buttons and so many things are on his table, on his plate, that frankly, his own staff has a hard time keeping up with him,” Huckabee said. “His stamina is simply remarkable.”

Yeah, a 5-Star restaurant at the epicenter of a 9.0 earthquake.
I swear the Huckabee family tree is really a telephone pole.

A 5-star restaurant that serves 5 kinds of hamberders of varying grease levels.
Huckabee needs a new joke writer. Or a new brain. Commander-in-chef, my ass! pic.twitter.com/5BCo78GZS0
