Honestly, I think he's probably right about that. The majority of the country doesn't want to overturn the gay marriage ruling and the people who do aren't all that energized about it. That's not a hill worth dying on. The pro-life thing on the other hand, the people who want Roe v. Wade overturned are a pretty significant bloc and it's like a single issue for many of them.
The battlefield for LGBT rights under whatever judge Trump appoints are going to be "religious freedom" laws that allow people to discriminate against others on the basis of orientation. Not allowing gays in your restaurant, or whatever.
