Bachmann, Dobson, Reed Headline Trump Evangelical Advisory Board
Presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump rolled out his evangelical advisory board Tuesday as he looks to assuage conservatives and supporters of Sen. Ted Cruz to unify the GOP ahead of November.
Trump released a list of 24 members of his “executive board,” which is headlined by former Rep. Michele Bachmann, Pastors Robert Jeffress and Tony Suarez, as well as Dr. James Dobson. Suarez and Dobson are notable inclusions.
Earlier in the race, Dobson supported Cruz and campaigned with him in Iowa. Suarez, on the other hand, has been a critic of Trump’s in the past thanks to the real estate mogul’s rhetoric on immigrants and the Hispanic community.
Meanwhile, Bachmann declined to endorse anyone during the GOP primary contest after her own 2012 bid, which ended after a sixth place finish in the Iowa caucuses.
Earlier in the day, Trump held an event with Dr. Ben Carson in New York where Trump answered questions from those in attendence and questioned Clinton’s faith, saying “we don’t know anything” about it. (Read more from “Bachmann, Dobson, Reed Headline Trump Evangelical Advisory Board” HERE)
