This might be true but Trump is “bad” for invading foreign criminal freeloaders and refugihadis. Clintoon is “bad” for the American people so I guess you have to decide which group of people you care most about.
Let’s assume that Trump is as crooked as Hillary.
With the press and the government and all the 3 letter agencies hating him like they do he won’t be able to get away with .000001% of the stuff that the Billaries get away with.
That alone makes him a million times more desirable guarding the national assets and the American people.

Neither candidate is better than the other? Who is he fooling? Trump for limits on abortion, religious freedom, and re-vamped health care for all, and freedom from government control and subsidiarity. Hillary against or weaker on all? He is wrong.
As a Catholic, I just don’t understand why someone with such a high position in the church, and all his influence, just fails to see the corruption from the Clintons and the democrat party. This is very disappointing.

Almost all of the Catholic bishops, including Chaput, are for unlimited importation of raping, murdering, tubercular illegal aliens, and Muslim warriors. Twenty-five percent of Mexico is now in the U.S. The bishops have never hinted that that’s a problem. Or that 50%, 75%, or 100% would be a problem. The bishops have never hinted that importing more Muslim warriors would be a problem. The bishops have never hinted that the death of 25 Americans each day at the hands of an illegal alien is a problem.
They don’t dare say such things. The wrath of Bergoglio would descend on them like fire and brimstone.
Immigrants vote about 70-80% pro-abortion. The Catholic bishops’ only response is to call for more immigrants.
Guess this Bishop also doesn’t give a hoot about life in the womb, marriage between a man and a women, and religious liberty. He needs to get back into the BOOK.
I read the whole thing, and was going to try to point out a couple of the errors with scriptural references, but you summed it up: “This guy is an idiot.”
Note his implication that anyone who is rich knows nothing about “the common people,” and cannot be trusted. That is pure class envy. Also a common trait of the kind of bishops Paul VI and John Paul II appointed.
It sounds like Charlie Chaput considers abortion to be a minor issue, highlighting the old adage that the road to hell is paved with the skulls of bishops.

“Read it as thoughts from a brother in the faith, not as teachings from an archbishop.”

". . . NEITHER IS CLEARLY BETTER THAN THE OTHER. [Emphasis added.] "
Now there's a bit of bearing false witness if I ever saw it. Well, it could be gross ignorance but if that's the case, this guy has no business being a bishop (but in JMHo, that's true of about 2/3 of US Bishops for one reason or another)
If a bishop uses his PROMINENCE and his diocesan newspaper, etc., to broadcast his PERSONAL OPINIONS, then he is abusing his office.
The only time a Catholic bishop should speak or write is when what he is saying MUST BE BELIEVED by all Catholics. In all other cases, he is abusing his office.
I stopped reading at this point. The author is obviously an idiot. I don't waste my time reading the opinions of leftists and other morons.
Notice later, he says that anyone who DOES vote for Trump or Hillary is using “some strange calculus.”
I.e., another way to say that Trump and Hillary are EQUALLY EVIL.
Think he is Native American, and as many are, full of a class envy that affects his thoughts. I base that on his personal correspondences of which I have knowledge. Otherwise, he is smart and orthodox
