Huckabee jokes about Conway accidentally calling Trump ‘commander of cheese’

Former Gov. Mike Huckabee (R-Ark.) poked fun at Kellyanne Conway after the White House counselor accidentally said President Trump was the “commander of cheese” instead of “commander in chief.”

“Was not a mistake on @KellyannePolls part. It’s Biblical,” Huckabee tweeted on Wednesday.

“‘Blessed are the Cheesemakers.’ It’s why evangelicals are supportive of @realDonaldTRump and you would know that if you knew the Bible AND Monty Python!”

“Blessed are the Cheesemakers” is a line from the 1979 movie “Monty Python’s Life of Brian.”

In a scene, audience members in the back of a large crowd can’t hear a sermon and mishear what the speaker is saying. 

Huckabee, whose daughter, Sarah Huckabee Sanders, is White House press secretary, shared a clip of Conway, who appeared on CNN earlier Wednesday morning, accidentally mispronouncing Trump’s title.
