    From my experience, Catholics in the US are generally on the left side of the spectrum when compared to other Christians politically.

        Many of them are immigrants, which might make immigration a single issue vote. Many of them are pro worker and pro union, pro social services. Contrast that with say southern baptists or Methodists or “non denominational” or whatever other Christians, who will already have the same abortion bias anyway, that’s why I made the claim I did.

          I wasn’t disagreeing with you. Catholics tend to be left on many issues… With the biggest exception being abortion.

      It’s kind of like a 50/50 split between good and bad guys. Obviously the bad guys don’t know they are the bad guys that goes without saying.

      Obviously said good guys are not that great either and also completely delusional. Those of us in reality are a lonely bunch.
