The #republican party and #conservative people have, generally speaking, come a long way. With many contemporary conservatives identifying more with traditional liberalism and more Republicans leaning more towards #libertarian schools of thought many things like gay marriage have seen a paradigm shift within the party's viewpoint. It wasn't always this way, on either side. It's worth nothing that Donald Trump, the oft vilified president who is referred to as a racist and bigot is the first President of the United States to openly support gay marriage. Neither Barack Obama, Joe Biden, Hillary Clinton or even Bill Clinton openly supported the vast majority of gay rights at all. In fact, Bill Weld, who we mention in this video was openly supporting gay marriage as a politician in 1992... When he was a Republican.
