Obviously, this post is meant to be advice to Catholic voters. Everyone else can ignore it, unless you are curious as to why some of us are NOT supporting Trump.

Our Church is going to tell us to vote for Bernie. Because he will take care of “the poor”.

As a Catholic, I will proudly cast my vote for Donald Trump.

Brought to you by the most liberal anti-traditional hijackers of the Catholic Church - The U.S. Conference of Catholic (in name only) Bishops, sponsors and enablers of open borders, illegal immigration, sanctuary cities, pedophile and pederast priest, sodomites the world over ... and a “pope” who believes atheists can go to heaven ... Ya, guys - you sure have credibility going there.

Gee - close to 60% of the Catholic vote goes to Democrats.

I guess that is better than voting for Trump.

Gonna be difficult taking care of the poor since Bernie wants all of us to be equally poor. Third-world poor.

“Should Catholics support Donald Trump? No. “

Is the Catholic church in any position these days to order anyone around? No.

Fix your own house before telling people how they should vote for theirs.

What does Trump care about the catholic vote. It always goes to the most pro abortion candidate in the race anyway.

Not so. It depends upon who you are calling Catholic. Catholics who are faithful and attend church regularly do NOT vote for the most pro-abortion candidate.

There is another whole group who have the most tentative connection to the church who may call themselves Catholic but who haven’t set foot in a church in eons.

I agree. I was going to post almost the same line. You beat me to it. I have no explanation except the Catholic Church gets Huge amount of dollars from government programs.

No big loss. Catholics as a majority very reliably vote Dem. More of them will switch to Trump than Cruz though. Still a pittance that won’t matter.

I thought the bishops were regular church goers.

“Trump is right about something — it is time for a change. We do need to shake things up and make America great again. “

And his thoughts also should flow to the Catholic Church. You guy need a new Pope, not this Argentinean Commie. He should have been “BLACK SMOKE” from the getgo. Also, The Catholic Church should be sanctioned for it’s routine violations of the country’s immigration laws.

American Catholics were traditionally Democratic. They have been moving right for several decades, but massive Hispanic immigration will mask that movement.
