Cardinal Timothy Dolan has penned an op-ed reacting to Donald Trump’s speech at his campaign launch for a 2016 presidential run–six weeks ago–calling the Republican candidate a harbinger of anti-Catholic, racist “nativism.”
Cardinal Dolan writes at the New York Daily News:
During those happy days decades ago when I taught American religious history to university students, I spent a chunk of time in class on the ugly phenomenon called nativism, defined by the scholar and author Ray Allen Billington as, “organized, white, Protestant antagonism toward the Catholic immigrant.”

What an ass.
Is Trump Protestant or Catholic?
I though he was Catholic, but don’t really know.
Ah. The MSM is suddenly back in “we’re listening to Catholics” mode.
I love nativism. I love sovereign nationalism, I am legion.
Tim Dolan is no saint....and he shouldn’t even be where he is, they just didn’t know what to do with him so they stuck him in New York....
Trump is Presbyterian.

Timmy is protecting the government gravy train coming into his organization.
Yep.
Formally a Presbyterian.
There are six Roman Catholics currently serving on the court (Samuel Alito, Anthony Kennedy, John Roberts, Antonin Scalia, Sonia Sotomayor, and Clarence Thomas) and three Jews (Stephen Breyer, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, and Elena Kagen).
Yep, a lot of bias going on here in America!
against PROTESTANTS!!!!
The RC Church is one of the biggest advocates of open borders — for the United States. I don’t see them advocating open borders for Catholic countries like Mexico. They seem to view open borders for the US as the only way the Catholic Church can grow (or keep from shrinking) in this country - by importing Third World peasants. The Catholic Church grows that way - but, somewhat ironically, the Democratic Party even more.
With buffoonish leaders like Dolan, it’s no surprise they can’t increase their numbers from within the US population, so they need more unskilled, uneducated immigrants from Mexico and points south.
Considering those Catholic immigrants voted, and vote, overwhelmingly DemocRAT, the antagonism is well deserved.
If he said it, he is obviously one if thise low IQ political selectee dorks who have the intellect of a Dan Rather and the command ability of Gomer Pyle.
The Church is in trouble with it’s positions on almost every issue because they have let Catholic Charities accept hundreds of millions of dollars for their programs. They are now in the palm of the handout of government.
Don't know but he might be Irish too.☺
The Title of this ass’s column at the link:
Nativism rears its big-haired head:
Donald Trump’s anti-immigrant rhetoric is a sad return to a terrible American tradition

The Cardinal lies!
Mr. Trump is ANTI-ILLEGAL alien!!!
He is according to him, Presbyterian.
I looked it up.
His grandparents were German immigrants.
Dolan has been tested and found wanting.
