"Catholics, meanwhile, who represent about 22 per cent of the population, have generally lower levels of support for Trump; sixty per cent of white Catholics voted for Trump in 2024. Moreover, Catholics are spread around the country in crucial battleground states. And Trump’s increase in support among Latino Catholics between 2016 and 2024 is now collapsing." #PopeLeo #Trump #WhiteChristianNationalism #WhiteEvangelials #Catholics /6

"Many theologians and lay Christians argue that this kind of bloodthirsty religion isn’t recognizably Christian. … If we look at this as a numbers game, the trouble for Trump is likely on the Catholic side. Over 80 per cent of white evangelicals voted for Trump, but the evangelical vote is concentrated in deep red districts where MAGA can afford to lose a few votes." #PopeLeo #Trump #WhiteChristianNationalism #WhiteEvangelials #Catholics /5
