Donald Trump’s boldest decision was to name former Democrat presidential nominee turned former independent presidential nominee Robert Kennedy Jr. as his pick for Health and Human Service Secretary. Not everyone is on board, pointing to RFK Jr’s views on abortion. The most, I guess, “prominent” name to speak out is former Vice President Mike Pence. Remember that guy?
His organization, Advancing American Freedom, is calling on other Republicans to reject Trump’s nominee.
The letter from the conservative advocacy group Advancing American Freedom, first reported Wednesday by Daily Wire, criticized Kennedy as being “pro-abortion,” specifically over his past support for abortions later in pregnancy. This position is “completely out of step with the strong, pro-life record of the first Trump Administration,” the group wrote.
“While RFK Jr. has made certain overtures to pro-life leaders that he would be mindful of their concerns at HHS,” the AAF said in their letter, “there is little reason for confidence at this time.”
I know what most of you are thinking. Mike Pence?
