The author is working hard to *create* a problem, not describe one.

NOPE this is a LIE...

I am a traditional Catholic and I can tell you that the Catholic base is solid with Trump...

This fool article and writer are both lying, it’s all they know what to do...do not believe anything they write...

What they did to GWB is what they want to do with Trump, if we can take back our Nation like we did yesterday, then by golly we can bring down this communist media...!!!

Bezos, WP, and the Left will constantly attack. They will never give up in their attempt to undermine our resolve and our country.

Keeping the faith will be our new directive for the republic !

When did the Washington Compost become the spokesman for the Catholic Church? As the saying goes, they wouldn’t know a Catholic from a hole in the ground.

Catholic vote flipped 20% in few weeks before election to Trump.

Bishops and lib Catholics are problem. Faithful orthodox type Catholics are so anti-Clinton Democrat party they voted Trump with clear conscience.

This is from AUGUST. Trump won Catholics 52-45. Not sure why you posted this. Although 45% of Catholics is sickening.
We had a number of homilies from the pulpit in the last weeks going over Catholic dogma and voting with an informed Catholic conscience.
