On Morning Joe, Donny Deustch defends Mike Huckabee's statement that he can be friendly with gays although he doesn't share their lifestyle, in the same way he can be friendly with people who drink alcohol, use profanity, or like classical music or ballet, even though he doesn't engage in or enjoy those activities.

But when Joe Scarborough states that for thousands of years Christians and Jews have believed that homosexuality is not a preferable way of living, Deutsch protests "where did Jews say it's not okay to live that way?"  Scarborough and Willie Geist point out to Deutsch that the prohibition is in the Old Testament.
