Mike Huckabee believes the American media has it out for Donald Trump — by delivering a non-stop feed of negativity about the newly-seated president.
"The news media have become a 24/7 anti-Trump outrage-generating machine," the former Arkansas governor wrote Monday on his Facebook page.
"And one of its major components is the idea that everything Trump does is ‘unprecedented!' No matter how many other Presidents have done it before without a peep from the media.
"One recent example is his prioritizing of religious minority refugees facing genocide in their home nations. Why, it's outrageous and unprecedented! Except for the fact that it's been standard operating procedure for at least the past century."
Huckabee — who ran for the 2016 GOP presidential nomination before dropping out and throwing his support behind billionaire businessman Trump — is the author of "God, Guns, Grits, and Gravy," published by St. Martin's Press.
