The hierarchs are in a bit of a pinch politically.  Their usual endorsement of Repubs for essentially single issue politics is coming back to bite them now that the vulgar and lascivious Trump is the Repub nominee.  

Besides, I never expected that the hierarchs would embrace Hillary Clinton mainly because of their anti-feminine ideology.  I would expect the hierarchs to oppose Clinton because it is pretty much a given she will oppose all the attempts of the hierarchs to threaten a woman's right to privacy, self-agency and autonomy.  The hierarchs don't like a powerful woman standing up to their political ideology.
