So they should vote for the Republican party that openly supports capital punishment?

You can't be a single issue voter because you are forced to completely ignore other stances that will go against Catholic doctrine.





As someone who is against capital punishment it is FAAAAARRRR easier to justify capital punishment of a criminal than the murder of an unborn child.

Murder is the UNLAWFUL killing. The Ten Commandements thou shall not kill Kill was in the UNLAWFUL killing hebrew. IE Murder vs kill in the english language.



To see this debate look at the tim kaine and mike pence debate. They had to discuss an issue that morally they didnt agree with but still allowed as governor-Pence destroyed the answer in regards to abortion. Kaine just looked like a weasel talking about capital punishment.

This is interesting since hispanics, the fastest growing demographic segment in America, tend to be Catholic.


All the years of open borders might have provided just enough rope for the dems to hang themselves.



The democrats are trying to court illegals in an attempt to bolster their voting bloc. The problem with that is hispanics are not a voting bloc like other ethnic groups. They may start as a dem voter but they can and will change.

I voted for Trump because that was the absolute most I could do as a voter to keep Hilary out of office.


This essentially summarizes how pathetic the current American voting system is. Many voters don't actually vote for the candidate they want, but for the candidate most likely to knock off who they hate.

What % of GOP minorities have moved to the democrat party?

They may offset each other, but I would think it will probably be a net gain for the democrats.

This will hurt the GOP in important states like FL, AZ, TX, GA, and NC in the future.

Trump has hurt the party more than he has helped.

Not real Catholics if they were voting blue to begin with. No self respecting Catholic would vote for a party that supports all types of abortion.

Dems are killing it still with the Jews which I will understand save for the lawyer and banker angle.
