“He understands the military issues.”

Hunter understands the military issues like no one else!

And he’s pro-LIFE, and I wouldn’t back him, if he tried to hide that fact, but he does NOT!

Also, don’t take pro-lifers for granted. A Republican cannot win the presidency without us.

I'm not taking pro-lifers for granted, but I'm saying that a candidate gains no advantage from the "the most pro-life" in this field. The GOP hasn't nominated the "most pro-life" candidate in a competitive primary since 1980, and in 1980, the "most pro-life" candidate was Ronald Reagan who had governed California as a moderate on abortion. The GOP has never nominated someone who came across as a pro-life extremist. Mr. Hunter will not win by pushing the abortion issue too hard. His being a consistent pro-lifer helps him, but being the most zealous does not.
