Summary
Mike Pence’s advocacy group, Advancing American Freedom (AAF), opposes Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s nomination as Secretary of Health and Human Services, citing concerns about his inconsistent abortion stance.
Despite Kennedy’s reassurances to pro-life leaders and pledges to reinstate Trump-era policies, AAF doubts his commitment to pro-life values, emphasizing his past support for abortion access.
Trump’s endorsement has divided conservatives, with some defending Kennedy’s potential, while others see it as a risk.
Kennedy’s lack of public health credentials and history of spreading misinformation also face widespread criticism.
Usually, there isn’t really that much divisiveness in conservative politics because they are, well, not progressive at all. Progress fundamentally comes with finding new ways of dealing with issues and bringing awareness to ignored topics, so the progressives always have to discuss and debate to find the way forward. Conservatives don’t, they just infight sometimes if they feel they got sidelined as to show power.
