Erick Erickson criticized Trump's transition team for blocking Roger Severino from a senior HHS role, suggesting this decision undercuts pro-life advocacy and alienates conservative backers.
Erickson highlighted that Trump's team opted for someone with pro-abortion ties over a proven pro-life advocate, a decision he believes will not resonate well with conservative voters.
Sources indicated that Severino’s anti-abortion views were seen as too contentious for a position that required navigating moderate interests within the health department.
Trump's team reportedly feared that appointing Severino would exacerbate concerns about Kennedy's abortion stance, dampening his support as he transitions into the role of HHS secretary.
