Cardinal Dolan Should Apologize to Trump

New York’s Cardinal Timothy Dolan has chosen to enter the political fray by accusing Donald Trump, in a NY Daily News column, of being a reincarnation of 19th century “Nativism.” Why? Simply because Trump has made some rather harsh statements related to illegal immigration at our southern border. I suspect Trump would absolutely deny that he is anti-immigration, but he readily asserts that this illegal migration is bringing a lot of criminals into the country along with good people who are entering the country illegally. Our government’s own statistics tend to support that contention, and there are many Catholics who lament the failure to secure the border.
