Among the surrogates will be Paula White, a televangelist and religious adviser to the US president, recently caught on video .. https://www.nytimes.com/2020/01/27/us/politics/paula-white-miscarriage-video.html .. declaring during a church service in Florida: “In the name of Jesus, we command all satanic pregnancies to miscarry right now.” White has claimed that she was quoted out of context for political ends.
As Trump seeks to shore up his rightwing religious base, Jerry Falwell Jr, president of Liberty University, one of the world’s biggest Christian colleges, will also be deployed. He has previously opined there was nothing that Trump could do that would threaten his support from evangelical leaders. It has been reported .. https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-politics-falwell-exclusive/exclusive-trump-fixer-cohen-says-he-helped-falwell-handle-racy-photos-idUSKCN1SD2JG .. that Trump’s longtime lawyer Michael Cohen intervened in 2016 to ensure that racy “personal” photographs of Falwell were destroyed.
Ken Blackwell, Penny Nance and Ralph Reed, Pro-Life Voices for Trump advisory board members, will be on the ground, reflecting the president’s personal reinvention as a scourge of abortion rights. Last week he became the first sitting president to address the March for Life in Washington .. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2020/jan/24/trump-march-for-life-washington-anti-abortion .
Neil Sroka, a spokesman for the progressive political action committee Democracy for America, said: “When you have an absolutely amoral, unrepentantly bigoted president, you’re going to need to turn out the religious sell-outs to try to hold together the Republican coalition.”
The president’s surrogate army, spreading out across the state, will further include Mick Mulvaney, the White House acting chief of staff; the housing secretary, Ben Carson; the education secretary, Betsy DeVos; the commerce secretary, Wilbur Ross; and the former energy secretary Rick Perry.
And in a glimpse of the coming campaign, some of Trump’s biggest defenders during the impeachment hearings in Washington will make his case to voters at Iowa caucus sites. Among them are Matt Gaetz of Florida, Jim Jordan of Ohio, Mark Meadows of North Carolina, Elise Stefanik of New York and Liz Cheney of Wyoming – daughter of the former vice-president Dick Cheney.

There is also a place for the former White House communications director Bill Shine .. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2018/jul/05/bill-shine-trump-fox-news-hired-white-house-cover-up-accusations , who was ousted from Fox News after being accused in multiple civil lawsuits of covering up sexual misconduct by the channel’s founding chairman, Roger Ailes. He denied any wrongdoing. Shine’s wife, Darla, has made racially incendiary comments and pushed false anti-vaccination claims on Twitter .. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2019/feb/13/darla-shine-vaccines-anti-vaxxer-measles .
