Cardinal Timothy Dolan was the ringmaster for the Al Smith dinner, seated between Trump and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.queerty.com\/tag\/hillary-clinton\">Hillary Clinton<\/a>. But Dolan&rsquo;s appearance was one of the few that the Catholic bishops have put in during the campaign.<\/p>\n<p>Compare that to past elections. In 2004, Catholic bishops <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2004\/10\/12\/politics\/campaign\/group-of-bishops-using-influence-to-oppose-kerry.html?_r=0\">all but took to the stump for George W. Bush<\/a>. Dolan gave a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.queerty.com\/archbishop-dolans-appearance-at-gop-convention-proves-hating-gays-trumps-loving-the-poor-20120824\">convocation at the Republican convention<\/a> in 2012, and, almost as an afterthought, showed up at the Democratic convention &nbsp;just to prove his bipartisanship. (No one was fooled.)<\/p>\n<p>This time around, the bishops have been a lot less political. Part of it has to do with Trump himself. After all, he called the pope &ldquo;disgraceful&rdquo; when Francis said that Trump&rsquo;s wall with Mexico was <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thedailybeast.com\/articles\/2016\/10\/21\/donald-trump-son-of-a-catholic-hater-disgraces-al-smith-dinner.html\">&ldquo;not Christian.&rdquo;<\/a>&nbsp;Even <a href=\"https:\/\/www.queerty.com\/u-s-bishops-declare-open-war-on-the-pope-as-too-soft-on-homophobia-20141111\">Archbishop Charles Chaput, <\/a>who is so far to the right that he thinks the pope is insufficiently Catholic, has <a href=\"http:\/\/www.latimes.com\/opinion\/opinion-la\/la-ol-bishop-election-20161019-snap-story.html\">branded Trump<\/a> &ldquo;&ldquo;a vulgar, boorish lout and disrespecter of <a title=\"\" class=\"aalmanual\" target=\"_blank\"   href=\"https:\/\/www.flirt4free.com\/live\/girls\/?mp_code=akftr\">women<\/a> with a serious impulse control problem.&rdquo; (He&rsquo;s no fan of Clinton either, calling her a &ldquo;scheming, robotic liar.&rdquo;)<\/p>\n<p>But the real motivation for the bishop&rsquo;s silence may be to stay on the right side of the Vatican. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.queerty.com\/tag\/pope-francis\">Pope Francis<\/a> made comments earlier this month that <a href=\"http:\/\/www.huffingtonpost.com\/entry\/pope-francis-election-advice_us_57f1eb0de4b0c2407cde7f5a\">were studiously non-partisan<\/a>:&nbsp; &ldquo;The people are sovereign. I will only say: Study the proposals well, pray and choose in conscience.&rdquo; No comments about abortion or marriage equality or any other hot button issues.<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, the pope&rsquo;s willingness to go after Trump about the wall sent a clear signal. &nbsp;Francis is emphasizing social justice issues, like immigration and poverty, which have taken a back burner to the culture war issues that the bishops have been pushing for decades. He&rsquo;s also sent a clear message about how he views political involvement with his promotions: as archbishop of Philadelphia, Chaput holds a position that is traditionally elevated to cardinal, but Francis keeps passing him over.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, Catholic voters are different from the bishops. Like pretty much every other voting bloc, Trump promises to lose the Catholic vote<a href=\"http:\/\/www.economist.com\/blogs\/democracyinamerica\/2016\/10\/trumpery-and-popery\"> in record numbers.&nbsp;<\/a>&nbsp;If that turns out to be the case on Election Day, even the bishops may have to pay attention.<\/p>\n<div>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/queerty2?a=2Es9FTUzQCU:gztCr_GlNzs:yIl2AUoC8zA\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/queerty2?d=yIl2AUoC8zA\" border=\"0\"><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/queerty2?a=2Es9FTUzQCU:gztCr_GlNzs:dnMXMwOfBR0\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/queerty2?d=dnMXMwOfBR0\" border=\"0\"><\/a>\n<\/div>\n<p>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.queerty.com\/donald-trump-learning-catholic-bishops-lost-political-clout-20161030?utm_source=feedburner&#038;utm_medium=feed&#038;utm_campaign=Feed%3A+queerty2+%28Queerty%29\" class=\"autohyperlink\">www.queerty.com\/donald-trump-learning-catholic-bishops-lost-political-clout-20161030?utm_source=feedburner&#038;utm_medium=feed&#038;utm_campaign=Feed%3A+queerty2+%28Queerty%29<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Donald Trump Is Learning The Hard Way Catholic Bishops Have Lost Their Political Clout It takes a special talent to get a roomful of rich Catholics to boo a Republican candidate, but Donald Trump has that gift.
