Former Arkansas governor and Republican presidential hopeful Mike Huckabee took to Twitter to defend President Donald Trump’s signing of the Bibles.

Huckabee argued that the majority of people critical of President Trump’s actions “don't read one or believe in it,” adding that he himself had signed his share of Bibles.

“I've been asked to sign thousands of Bibles over the yrs-because person asked. I never claimed to be the author! Get a grip!” tweeted Huckabee on Sunday, getting over 34,000 likes and more than 9,000 retweets.
