So you have a liberal/progressive view on economics, as opposed to conservative/free markets.

Wrong. I am an advocate of the Austrian school of economics, which believes all economic intervention by government is counterproductive. However, by any measure, Trump is closer to that position than was Clinton. I do not agree with Trump's tariff position. However, the Republican Party, from Lincoln to Hoover, was a high tariff party. Despite this position, the GOP was favorable to laissez faire economics, with the exception of Theodore Roosevelt and, to a lesser extent, Hoover.

I believe that human life begins at conception, but would accept a ban on abortions after the first trimester. Not ideal, but an incremental step to the goal of illegalizing all abortions.
