When did abortion and gun control become the main points of the Republican party? I always thought that the Republican party stood for lower taxes and a creating a healthy environment for businesses. Now you're either being deliberately deceptive or incredibly ignorant.
The pro-life and pro-second amendment issues are two of THE most important issues to a large majority of Republicans, and to suggest otherwise is laughable.

It use to not be is the point, and it seems like people are trying to make the republicans into a 2 issue party. Well, I didn't join the republican party for those issues.
I joined twenty-fiver years ago because I wanted lower taxes, a smaller federal government, and a strong national defense. Those were my main issues. I'm not pro-abortion and I don't support gun controls, but those are not my main issues.
I would not support someone who is anti-abortion and pro-2nd admendment if they were going to increase taxes, grow the federal government, and be weak of our national defense.
I have a priority system, and I think a lot of Republicans have the same priority system as I do.
