Straw man. Pat Perriello isn't advocating "silence." He's calling for the end of one-issue Catholic politics.

And, no, voting for Trump did not make you St. Thomas More. It made you complicit in the election of a disgusting demagogue who knows nothing nor cares about sound government. It's not a question of whether Trump's dangerous, but how dangerous. You realize Trump wants to back out of the Iran deal, withdraw from the Paris Agreement,  and appointed for National Security Advisor a wingnut who wants to fight a crusade against Islam? Culture of death.

As an American I find this intolerable and so am out of the door.
