"A recent NBC News survey of 4,557 American adults gives Pope Leo XIV a net favorability rating of plus thirty-four. Donald Trump’s net favorability in the same poll is negative twelve. That is a 46 point gap between the first American pope and the American president — a gap measured during a month of sustained public attacks from Trump on the Holy Father."

"More dismaying for Trump were the criticisms that almost immediately began emanating from Republican Catholic politicians."
"American Catholics have long been a redoubt of conservatism (and even right-wing extremism) in a Church whose leadership in Rome has been moving markedly to the left. Trump, therefore, must have been blindsided when the church’s American bishops roundly denounced The Donald for dissing the Pope in the wake of Trump’s Messiah moment."

John Colagioia‘Neutral’ voters could be dangerous for democracy https://www.futurity.org/voting-neither-could-harm-american-democracy-3330442/
Neutrality towards democracy, rather than outright opposition, has enabled democratic backsliding among various Western democracies as elected officials leverage citizens’ neutral attitudes to pursue antidemocratic outcomes.
