I did wonder about this because Biden comes from an Irish Catholic background and whether that would help him. I think it probably does.

1. So you mean the Pope

is going to rule America?

2. EWTN is going to be so unhappy

Maybe they can sell more trinkets to try and help trump
If there's one group of Catholics that I could see bringing back indulgences, it's EWTN

[empedocles]

5. Big numbers pulling away

3. The Catholics get something the Evangelicals don't

That rousting out a bishop and priest with tear-gas for a photo-op is an outrage and should not be applauded.

4. By & large

Roman Catholics aren't taken in by that bible-waving BS either.

6. My parents where devout Catholics, especially Mom. They put me and my three sisters through

Parochial school for 7 years each. My dad, an FDR Democrat, despised the idea of vouchers. Anyway, we never had a bible in our house. There is such a thing as a Catholic Bible but nobody has one! LOL. They couldn’t tolerate Bible thumpers. That recognized bullshit from a mile away. They would loathe trump and his Bible photo op.

14. Describes Our Family

My mom started leaning R crazy in the half dozen years of her life.
But, they were JFK/LBJ dems, and dad was a Teamster. They didn't like or trust Nixon, but were iffy on antiwar protests.
So, middle of the road catholic dems for as long as I remember.
Me, catholic grade school, high school, and even college. (The college choice was about their big rep in the field in which I majored, not the religion.). Sister, too. But she didn't finish college.

7. Ah, was wondering why he went to the shrine

8. He'll brandish a crucifix next time

AND a Lady of Guadalupe

9. He'll be making a trip to Lourdes at this rate of decline.

10. +1

12. I'll only believe Donnie's conversion might be genuine if

He makes a penitent pilgrimage from Santa Fe’s (NM) main plaza to the Sanctuary of Chimayo on his knees, and nothing less.

13. Bring one of those EWTN priests

They'll support him no matter what
They'll offer him their prayers and support -- in Latin of course

[Mariana]

11. That's very good.

He got the majority of Catholics' votes, overall, in 2016, so this is very important.

15. I drive by catholic church everyday,

It was a polling place in 2016, there must have been two hundred trump for president signs in front of the church, I don't trust Catholics.
