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.
Ka-ray-zee.
That Mike Pence is a "moderate" seems a stretch by any measure. He may acknowledge man has played a part in climate change, but he is no friend to the environment. His record speaks for itself.

I suppose it doesn't hurt that his unyielding virtue appeals to the evangelicals.
