The difference between the Republican and Democratic parties is that Democrats think we shouldn't have any morals. They rebel against decades old social norms just for the sake of rebelling, like they never grew out of the rebellious phase. They're like hippies in suits. Their problem is since their entire platform is "morals are bad and we shouldn't have any," they don't have any beliefs of their own to stand on, and so they can never actually accomplish anything. All they can do is ruin what's already established.

no, its more democrats dont believe in shoving your morals down other's throats.

Most democrats wouldn't use abortions as their primary means of birth control. Hell many democrats don't even like the concept of an abortion. But they also believe that they don't have the right to say "you cant have one", and that banning them would cause more problems than making them legal.

I really dont see how anyone can be against almost all the popular opinions democrats have on social issues.

Economic and foreign policy are different. Id argue that the ideal economic structure is 50% capitalistic/50% socialist. Which is much more in common with what democrats think. But there are some economic and foreign policies that could potentially work that the republicans tend to talk about. And potential corruption without a just legal system (which we haven't had in years) can make my 50/50 capitalistic/socialist ideal fail.
