Huge news for those in the pro-life movement concerned about this years 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.
FYI my dear. I know this is close to your heart.
:-)
I doubt it ...do you ?
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.
Glad to hear.
Thank you, 144. This was truly a very gracious move, by Mr. TRUMP, and rather bold, imho. It’s a statement.
Still posting for Cruz, I see.
Are you a salty Sally? Do us all a favor and let it go.
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.
From what I saw on CNN he won with evengelicals.
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!

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).
https://www.facebook.com/FRCAction/
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.
oops - meant to add you in the ping to post 14.
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.
