Segment 3 & 4 – Pro-life advocate says Trump victory is ‘huge’ for Catholic voters: ‘Morality matters’
“I know the Al Smith Dinner gets a lot of attention for that. That certainly wasn’t a wise move for [VP Harris] to not go to that. But I think it’s more than just dressing up in a dress or a tuxedo and going to a fundraiser. We Catholics always get the impression from, frankly, the Biden-Harris administration that they hated Catholics, and they hate religion. We see what they’ve tolerated, in some cases, encouraged what’s happened to the Jews. We saw the DOJ target Catholics and target pro-lifers. And you just got that sense that they didn’t like or respect Catholics.” – Shawn Carney
