His VP expressly stated that Trump and Co. will be looking to roll back a whole heap of LGBT protections, amongst other social policies which came about under the Obama presidency.
I am confused as to how you can state one thing, and the VP another, without one of you being wrong.

The Christian/Catholic radio shows are all buzzing this morning. They believe Trumps win will be the perfect opportunity to repeal Roe V. Wade.

He also said reversing Roe V. Wade would be "automatic" given his SCOTUS selections.
And am also confused as to how anybody can say he has a "strangle hold" on the GOP or RNC. Senators and Congressmen have never had any problem distancing themselves from an unpopular President before, not sure why they would now?
If he's popular and has good ideas, no stranglehold is needed. If he's not, then what's to stop people from pushing him to arm's length?

Yes, he's actually very centrist when it comes to his ideology (that he has shown over the years, not the pandering that happens during an election). This will hopefully be something good for the country, and hopefully there will be quite a few libertarian-leaning ideas that come to fruition during his presidency.
But that said, as with most politicians, we can't take what they say--or even what they do--as any indicator as what they will do in the future. We will all just have to strap in, grab hands, and hold on for the ride.

Roe vs. Wade can't be repealed. The only way to change it is if SCOTUS renders a ruling that changes the original ruling or a constitutional amendment. Either way with the current make up of the court I dont see it changing anytime soon.

I don't think he nominates conservative judges..I think conservatism just died.

I find it funny that you think they're terrified of him. All the more so that you think they're so terrified they'll go along with him because they're so afraid.
Keep in mind that trying to spin this as he'll somehow introduce all this liberal agenda stuff still runs into the problem of the GOP controls Congress, both houses. I know you're trying to paint this as Trump will effectively be a dictator without having to actually say it, but that's a bit of a reach.

I want to see his cabinet ,I can't really TELL about what we will see without that information.
Campaign is over WE bought the product on HIS guarantee.
I know it's hard but wait before you get the ass.
I am QUITE sure he will have more than a few issues we will BOTH hate, if not the same ones.
Trump has said he is pro gay marriage and trans bathrooms.
