Trump won over Catholics by recognizing their anger - The Boston Globe

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

54% : The two others, who also signaled support for Trump, were Hispanic.
54% : For roughly a decade now, Trump has reigned as the unexpected king of conservative America, and even he seemed to recognize that Catholics would be key to his victory -- which apparently escaped the Democratic presidential strategists.
47% : Essentially a 90-minute political ad against the Republican party's historical and present connections to white Christian nationalism the film amplified the horrors of the Jan. 6 insurrection, right-wing political extremism, misogyny, and the rise of Trump -- all while focusing almost exclusively on evangelical Protestants.
46% : Exit poll data indicates that Trump won 58 percent of the overall Catholic vote and more than 61 percent of the white Catholic vote.
41% : What's more, their strong presence in crucial locales only fueled the flames for Trump.
38% : Not even Trump's professed tolerance for legal abortion could faze the young Catholic resistance, as seen in my peers' insistence that Trump and Vance represented the "pro-life" ticket.
12% : Before dining with the Archbishop of New York in October and gaining fodder for attacks about supposed anti-Catholic bias on the part of Harris, Trump sent out Catholic overtures online throughout the fall that caused even some conservatives to scratch their heads.
