The Democratic Party doesn't have "a social agenda." That's a made-up thing promoted by dumb people. The Democratic Party, since the 1960s, has pushed for more rights. More rights for Black people, women, gay and trans people, children, and minorities. That's unpopular with some people but there's more of us than them.
When women and minorities vote against our own rights by buying into the Republican lies about "social agendas," we're being dumb. When white people who depend on health care, public safety, and laws vote for somebody who promises to tear those things down, they're being dumb.
Your neighbor is either dumb, or so mean and evil he actually agrees with Trump's policies. He chose to vote for Trump because somebody else puts pronouns in their email signature? That's dumb.
