Quote:Here's a couple of key thoughts to consider. When did Trump talk about religion? What about other social issues such as gays? What about abortion? He didn't. He also steered clear of entitlement programs.

Entitlement programs aside, which I think need a thorough overhaul, I actually am coming to a place where I think a Trump not directly stepping in the mire of social issues definitely did him more good than harm.


As I've said elsewhere, I have a lot of Republican friends but, to a person, they steer vehemently away from any candidate who tows the religious/legislation of morality line. Im only guessing here, but I'm pretty sure many of them felt slightly better about voting for Trump because he isn't seen as a hardcore social conservative. Mike Pence, not so much...he borders on being a zealot from where I sit but I also don't think people paid him that much attention either.
