For example his VP Pence is a moderate republican and Trump is probably going to be the delegate alot of power to him. He accepts man-made climate change and claims Jimmy Carter is one of his heroes.
But he is a BIG problem for LGBT people. He has been a fierce opponent of gay rights in the past and there's every indication that he will be again.
Can he rewind the clock and put the rainbow genie back in it's bottle?
What will the gay-friendly people of the U.S.A do if he tries?
This is all very fascinating.
Given that Congress has a majority of conservative Republicans and that Trump will be filling the vacancy on the Supreme Court, the short answer is Yes, he potentially has the power to rewind. I have no idea how any of this is going to go, but I'm not optimistic.
