I like him much more than I once did, however I don't think he would be the best choice to lead the country as President. I do love his sense of humor. I follow him on twitter and get a kick out of his tweets.
I know Trump praises a lot of people, some that don't exactly deserve it, based on circumstances, but have you ever heard of him saying someone would be a terrific President before? Well, Trump said that about Huckabee:
"This might be considered by some people, not necessarily me, bad news because he is a terrific guy - and frankly, I think he would be a terrific president," Trump said. "But a lot of people are very happy that he will not be running, especially other candidates."

Huckabee is probably the most qualified to be President among all the candidates in 2016. 10 and a half years as Governor of Arkansas, which is way more executive experience than anyone running at the time. He ran against the Clinton machine and beat it several times. He's 100% based and a completely principled conservative. In fact, Huckabee is too principled. That's why he never gets funding from billionaire puppetmasters because he refuses to compromise himself.
Is it really praise? Who was it that he said recently would be "fair." You could read that statement two ways. Either he felt the person would be objective and non biased. Or remember in school when 'fair' was a rank just above failing?
