Donald Trump Makes Huge Pro-Life Hire
The Pulse 2016 ^ | May 3, 2016 | Marjorie Dannenfelser

Posted on 05/04/2016 9:15:29 PM PDT by niki

“Huge” news for those in the pro-life movement concerned about this year’s election.

Donald Trump has brought on John Mashburn as his Policy Director. This is an excellent hire, especially for the pro-life movement and our legislative priorities.

Trump doesn’t so I would assume not. I am not active in the Pro-life movement so I don’t know the people in it.

Perhaps the best indication of John’s longtime pro-life advocacy is that he once served Sen. Jesse Helms, a well-known pro-life activist and leader of the conservative movement. Sen. Helms fought heroically to stop abortion on-demand in our nation and for the protection of unborn children, mothers, and taxpayers.







VOTE TRUMP!

This might appear to be a very nice first reward to the Evangelicals who supported TRUMP in the South, in that Cruz “firewall”, that really rocketed TRUMP’s campaign, especially among religious conservatives.

Very nice play for mutual loyalty.

If you read the article you would know the answer to your question and you wouldn’t have even asked it.

Thank you, 144. This was truly a very gracious move, by Mr. TRUMP, and rather bold, imho. It’s a statement.

I was listening to something about the exit polls out of Indiana, and that Evangelicals didn’t view Trump too well. But it is hires like this that will help with that, and perhaps bring some unity to the party.

Trump was opposed to the abortion factory that was PP.

He was not opposed to funding PP if they behaved like any other community clinic in poor neighborhoods, dispensing Rx’s, medical testing, etc., etc.

However, when he said that, I think TRUMP was unaware that PP did not do mammograms, contrary to what their lobbyists have attributed to them.

site is associated with American Principles Project (just looked into it) and what a phenomenal organization. Founder is an historical constitutionalist and IMHO should be on the short list for Supreme Court!

Robert P. George – Founder

Dr. George is the Chair of the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom (USCIRF). He is also a McCormick Professor of Jurisprudence at Princeton University. One of America’s foremost scholars in the fields of constitutional law, ethics, and political philosophy, he has won numerous awards for his academic and civic work, including the Presidential Citizens Medal. He has served on the President’s Council on Bioethics and as a presidential appointee to the United States Commission on Civil Rights.

He is a former Judicial Fellow at the Supreme Court of the United States, where he received the Justice Tom C. Clark Award. He is the author or editor of many books, including Making Men Moral: Civil Liberties and Public Morality and The Clash of Orthodoxies: Law, Morality, and Religion in Crisis, and co-author of Embryo: A Defense of Human Life.

(Note: Views expressed by the American Principles Project and/or on this website are not necessarily those of Professor George.)

I think you’re onto something with the conservative olive branch for unity.

I had not heard the Evangelical count for TRUMP in Indiana.

Across the country, however, there were often polls showing his Evg. support that exceeded or matched that of his competitor(s).

They barely showed the poll - it was pretty close in Indiana - of regular church-goers it was 47% Cruz, 43% Trump. But the guy talking (Tony Perkins, Family Research Council) had some interesting comments on supporting Trump or not. I think this recent pick by Mr. Trump will help in winning some more support.

Trump had a change of heart. It happens. People learn from experience. People that say Trump isn’t conservative are deluding themselves. This hire will help with those who actually pay attention.
