Egregious and Unprecedented, Says Former RNC Chairman and Vatican Ambassador About Dems Anti-Catholicism

When he says existential, he means it literally. Between the economy and all the international danger we are seeing, voting for Trump is an act of national survival. But as a Catholic, he s also both horrified and offended by the fact that the Democratic Party seems now to condone the most brazen acts of disrespect to his Church: How does the first party to nominate a Catholic for the presidency and then elect a Catholic president end up having one of its most prominent governors mocking the Eucharist? He was referring to Michigan Governor Christine Whitmer s bizarre ad depicting her putting a Dorito on the tongue of a kneeling young girl in the manner of a Catholic priest giving Holy Communion.

Nicholson s worries didn t begin with a viral Tik-Tok, however. The reason he is so outraged now is that Whitmer s mockery comes at the end of a string of actions over the last fifteen years. And before that, you have 23 States Attorneys General (including Kamala Harris at the time) persecuting the Little Sisters of the Poor and then Democratic senators (including Harris at the time) suggest in a hearing on a federal judgeship the Knights of Columbus were an extremist group and then try to establish a religious test for federal office in violation of Article V of the Constitution a step that brought protests from the Presidents of Princeton, Notre Dame and the Anti-Defamation League.

These subjects might seem old hat to some, but Nicholson sees them as precursors to today s blatant Democratic attacks on human life attacks that make clear that Christianity is the enemy: And what about the Democratic Party extremist position on abortion that Senator Vance mentioned in the VP debate? Or the Biden administration deliberately sending out a Transgender message in place of an Easter Sunday proclamation.

And then, he adds, Kamala Harris turns down the Al Smith dinner. One might say that this action, though less egregious than the others, was symbolic of the dark turn Democrats and Harris have taken. The Al Smith Dinner, begun in 1945 to raise money for needy children in the Catholic Archdiocese of New York and honor the one-time Catholic governor of New York and presidential candidate for whom it is named, was described already in 1960 by historian Theodore H. White as a ritual of American politics.

I haven’t heard the hierarchy speaking out on Communion-gate however. Probably because they’re too far in the tank for the Dems. And who can blame them? They must, or most of them anyway, be feeling pretty confused. There has been a big shift in whom the parties represent.
