A very nice list you provided, however, be VERY CAUTIOUS when it comes to Trump because this man has not consistently adhered to what he now says.
For instance, Trump today says he is opposed to gay marriage and civil benefits and believes that gay marriage should be decided by the states. Trump, however, contradicted himself in 2015, saying he would support the Supreme Court’s ruling on gay marriage.

ON HEALTHCARE:
In last week debates, Trump said the following:
“As far as single payer, it works in Canada, It works incredibly well in Scotland. It could have worked in a different age, which is the age you’re talking about here.”
Trump didn’t explain what might have changed in the last 15 years that would prevent the United States from adopting Canadian-style health care.
I’m still waiting for him to clarify himself.
Since Conservatives DREAD a Canadian or United Kingdom style single-payer government run system, I don;t understand why Trump is praising that system at all.
rump supported the Supreme Court’s 2005 decision in Kelo v. City of New London, giving public authorities the right to seize private land for economic development by private investors. Trump said, “I happen to agree with [the decision] 100 percent.” -

How’s that for supporting Civil Liberties? (NOT).
Also in his book, THE AMERICA WE DESERVE, Trump highlighted his support for prosecuting “hate crimes” against homosexuals in his 2000 book, The America We Deserve.
“Hate Crime” is a term used to extend special protections for a specific classes and in essence elevates the importance of these classes above others.
For example, murder of homosexual or heterosexual should be viewed equally under the law and punished equally. Creating special classes is a liberal tactic used to divide and segment society.

Has he changed his opinion? Not sure.
