What is the 2016 Platform of Donald Trump? Abortion Donald Trump identifies himself as pro-life and favors defunding Planned Parenthood today but continues to favor allowing late-term abortions (see Abortion is Murder) in cases of rape, incest or to protect the health of the mother. He has admitted to having been pro-abortion until about a decade ago and claims that his views have "evolved" since then. Homosexual Marriage Until about a decade ago, Donald Trump did not oppose homosexual marriage. Five years ago, he changed his position and began to oppose it. After the 2015 U.S. Supreme Court's Obergefell v. Hodges ruling in favor of homosexual marriage (see Ages of Supreme Court Justices), Donald Trump changed his position again and now favors respecting homosexual marriage as the law of the land (see Bible verses about Homosexuality). Economy Donald Trump has proposes a 1-5-10-15 income tax plan that would simplify the income tax code as follows: 1% tax on incomes up to $30,000 5% tax on incomes from $30,001 to $100,000 10% tax on incomes from $100,000 to $1,000,000 15% tax on incomes over $1,000,000 He proposes to close the loopholes in the current income tax code that allow the rich to pay very low or no income tax, lower the corporate tax rate to 15%, cap business interest expense deductions, lower the capital gains tax, eliminate the estate and inheritance taxes, and impose a 35% import tariff on companies that outsource manufacturing abroad (see America in Decline). Foreign Policy Donald Trump opposed George W. Bush's 2003 invasion of Iraq, arguing that it would destabilize Iraq, lead to civil war, create a power vacuum that would benefit Iran, and that Iraq did not have weapons of mass destruction (see Is Bush Responsible?). He welcomed Russia's attacks against ISIS and opposed trying to topple Syria's Bashar al Assad. He is critical of President Barack Obama's 2015 nuclear deal with Iran and has said that he will prevent Iran from developing nuclear weapons. Immigration Donald Trump proposes to deport all illegal immigrants, build a wall along our southern border, and ban all Muslim immigration until U.S. immigration and law enforcement agencies can identify and prevent the entry of those who have been radicalized (see Islam: what the West needs to know). Healthcare Donald Trump favors replacing Obamacare with free market individual health savings accounts and increasing interstate competition among the insurance companies. We await his answers to the questions below (see also Donald Trump Ratings and Donald Trump Religion).
