I don’t understand the issue since the corruption of the Clinton campaign outweighs any words Trump said!

You misstated what Trump has been saying. He is not against immigration–he is opposed to ILLEGAL immigration. Please note that distinction.God has nothing to do with it, with Trump the Devil is in the detail. The USA is a Nation built by immigrants. Trumps anti-immigrant rants are as unAmerican as American history proves. Building his wall will split the continent and divide the US from her southern neighbours abandoning the long established Monroe Doctrine. His locker-room views on women hardly sit well with a faith that places Mary at its heart his business failures hardly
justify the belief he is some economic miracle worker. And finally his views on NATO and kow-towing to Putin’s Russia will destroy the Western Alliance built after 1945 that effectively won the Cold War.
Be careful what you ask of God when the Devil is listening.
It’s very unfair to legal immigrants if illegal immigration is not stopped. The drug problem is also very dangerous.

Even “5-10%” reduction is worth it, isn’t it? Shouldn’t we all vote to save that many innocent lives? Besides, as a Catholic, you cannot vote for a pro-abortion candidate without grave sin.Precisely. And Roe vs. Wade will not even be overturned. Conservative Chief Justice Roberts clearly indicated such.

People should read “Faithful Citizenship” and Father Ruggero’s post (both linked above) to come to their own conclusions.You don’t have to vote for Trump, but you cannot (as a Catholic) vote for Hilary.

Isn’t preventing even a drop by 5-10% worth voting AGAINST her?? Or is saving hundreds to thousands of innocent lives not worth it compared to all our other selfish “wants” in a president? C’mon, don’t get caught up in the rhetoric that “it won’t change much”…that sounds like a cop out to doing good in this world. If no one does the little things to move the world closer to Christ’s Social Kingship, then no progress will be made to restore his kingdom.Again, even if Roe v Wade is overturned, there is no reason to believe that abortion rates will drop much, if at all. See my earlier post.

How do you feel about voting for someone who supports killing innocent life? How do you feel about someone again under investigation by the FBI? That should not only make you feel foolish but appalled.Just because he is pro-life or leans that way. There are many other aspects of him I honestly do not condone. I feel foolish voting for someone based on one issue.

There are plenty of third party candidates to choose from. Perhaps you should look at one of them, if you don’t like the major party choices. According to politics1.com, these include:Just because he is pro-life or leans that way. There are many other aspects of him I honestly do not condone. I feel foolish voting for someone based on one issue.
Darrell Castle, Constitution Party
Gary Johnson, Libertarian
Chris Keniston, Veterans Party
Jill Stein, Green Party
Evan McMullin, Independent
Gloria LaRivera, Party of Socialism and Liberation
Rocky de la Fuente, Reform Party
Emilio Soltysik, Socialist Party
Alyson Kennedy, Socialist Workers Party
Then there are a dozen or so candidates on less than 5 state ballots, and what looks like a few hundred running write-in campaigns. Surely there is one of these that you can vote for in good conscience.

I would have to disagree with that priest. I don’t think morally you can vote for someone who supports the severing of innocent spinal cords, collapsing of their brains, supporting the destruction of the family through gay marriage, and uses her greed to benefit herself through “charitable foundations” (among many other atrocities). This is not one issue, this is a pattern of immorality that every good Catholic can see. Furthermore she does not deny any of it!!!People should read “Faithful Citizenship” and Father Ruggero’s post (both linked above) to come to their own conclusions.

Oh. Come now.What if the whole “enemies of the Church” thing is based on urban legend that has been fact-checked and debunked on snopes, etc.
We’ve all seen the Podesta emails. It is very clear that senior members of the Democratic Party who’ve held very high ranking government positions want to use their political power to change core Church teachings and structures for their own political benefit.
That makes them enemies of the Church.
I mean, we already knew they were when they went after sisters and Catholic hospitals, but it’s clear now that it’s much deeper than that.

There’s nothing new about anti Catholicism here in the US…and that goes for past elected members of Congress…

I think this is the most Catholic candidate and party, not that they have a chance of winning.

You keep bringing up this statistic. However, you do realize that people are now aborting babies using over the counter medications which coincidentally or not became available right around the time the numbers started to decline, meaning the abortions pills people take over the counter don’t capture those abortions.Abortions have been declining steadily over the last few decades. And yes, even under Democratic presidents, including Obama.

If that is so then it’s because they have pills that will kill the baby now, but that’s no reason to think its any less wrong!!! Obama is even forcing us taxpayers (that do NOT agree with his thinking) to pay for insurance that covers such pills. How evil can it get!!! And Hillary is for killing the baby up to the time of Birth. God help us!!! God Bless, MemawAbortions have been declining steadily over the last few decades.
