Seeing the title, I was prepared to agree with the author that abortion should be disassociated with religious politics (I presume that was the thesis...I trust the author wasn't saying the public should give up on having any opinion on abortion, which would be silly).

However, her/his reasons for this view are, I'm dismayed to note,  in another solar system from mine.  Moreover, everything he/she charges Trump with  is completely untrue.  He hasn't attacked anyone.

He's the president.  Get over it NCR.  These columns that are ostensibly about Catholicism (but are actually occasions for endless moaning about the election) serve nothing and no one.  They are not clever.  They are not steeped in deep intellectual consideration.  They have nothing to do with Catholicism.   They are just political bile.
