    Trump has been running from a more left leaning position so far. Ben Shapiro has commented on it multiple times. This is just another example.

      Definitely more politically viable than a hard-line anti-abortion stance. I'm not saying it's principled, but it's politically viable. Trump's good at finger to the wind stuff like that.

      Education is extremely important.

        Smart move to the center. Which is I think where he has always really been.

          @LuFins-Dad said in Trump the … Moderate?:

          a more left leaning position so far.

          I don't think he was ever all that hung up on the few silly issues that get all the press.

          I think he cares about 2 things (you can debate which comes first)

          • America
          • Mr. Trump

          beyond that, I think he is flexible

            I never really thought he was particularly right-wing, or conservative if you prefer. He's an opportunist, more than anything. What I always found a little puzzling was his really committed following, when he's clearly pretty cynical, and not exactly what you'd call sophisticated at covering it up.

            I was only joking

              I totally agree with you. Personally I don’t think the order is that important. It is like everything else about Trump, flexible and dependent on the opportunity at hand.
