Do Catholics still support Trump

I also admitted to voting for Republicans, Independents, and third parties. Does that make me an Indepenrepublicrat?

There is nothing intrinsically wrong with voting for Democrats or Republicans.

And my vote for a Democratic town clerk is going to have 0 impact on abortion.

There are more things involved with politics than simply abortion.

Not disturbing at all given that the democratic candidate and the party in general pretty much lays waste to the five Catholic pro life non negotiables. Of course I follow the bishops…

Trump is NOT pro-life. If he saw polling data tomorrow that guaranteed him 75% of the vote if he promised an abortion to every man, woman, and child, he’d sign an executive order making it law that same day.

Please stop confusing opportunism with principles.

Well yes but as has been pointed out if you (politicians) get it wrong with the right to life of the most innocent then I am not going to trust you on other matters.
 
It’s one thing to vote for him and like a few of his actions/positions. It’s another thing to be unable to criticise him or tolerate criticism about him and throw out random words like ‘libtard’.
 
Says more than me. NCR has criticised his supposed “pro-life” stance, as have other Catholic organizations. The only time he gets touted as “pro-life” is in comparison to clearly “pro-choice” presidents, and frankly, I’m not satisfied with a president who just isn’t as bad as someone else might be. I’d like him to be good on his own merits.

Further, pro-life is not just “anti-abortion”; what about care for that child once it is born? How do you say you are pro-life and try to roll back funding for critical children’s health care initiatives? How do you defund opportunities for the poor? All that does is perpetuate the same cycles of poverty that drives women to abortion in the first place.

A partial indulgence of 777 days has been granted for dropping truth bombs of a heroic magnitude.

Pro-life means anti-abortion, anti-euthanasia, anti-eugenics, anti-death penalty, pro-charity, pro-promotion of welfare among the poor, pro-healthcare especially for the disadvantaged.

If somebody falls short on any one of these issues, they’re being disingenuous going around claiming to be pro life.

But they are pro life.

How come you don’t follow Pope Francis…

“Since everything is interrelated, concern for the protection of nature is also incompatible with the justification of abortion. How can we genuinely teach the importance of concern for other vulnerable beings, however troublesome or inconvenient they may be, if we fail to protect a human embryo, even when its presence is uncomfortable and creates difficulties? “If personal and social sensitivity towards the acceptance of the new life is lost, then other forms of acceptance that are valuable for society also wither away”.
 
You don’t seem to get it.

There are more issues than simply being anti-abortion.

I don’t have the time or patience to spell everything out for you. Maybe someone else can help.

I find it INCREDIBLY insulting to insinuate that I am being disobedient to the Holy Father because I oppose Donald Trump. Honestly, that comment irritated me to the point where now I’m done conversing with you.

Lol…after you accused people of not following Pope Francis by voting for President Trump. You’re funny.

True. But none of these “things” can come close to the impact that abortion has. If you can name just one thing that surpasses abortion, I’m all ears. Abortion takes an innocent life. Since God is the author of life, He alone has the right to take it. The modern Democrat Party doesn’t just support abortion…they covet it! Just watch the ferocious fight they put up when a state threatens to pass laws against partial birth abortion. Who on earth could possibly defend this evil procedure? The Democrat Party, that’s who! They continue to defend the indefensible. And they’re even been known to pray to God to keep abortion available. Sick? You better believe it is!!! See for yourself from below links

I support the President. I did not vote for him, and he disgusts me on nearly every level, but he is our duly elected president, so by virtue of that alone I support him.
