I agree, Kevin.  And as I noted already, the religious freedom argument can cut many ways.  Some Catholic universities are already telling Trump that if he mandates mass deportations of undocumented students, they will not cooperate...citing religious freedom.  

How do you suppose the champions of religious freedom will react to that?

Even more so, as an article in "Commonweal" states, if the bishops do not protect the dignity of Muslims in the event of a possible Trump assault on their religion, what is one to make of their argument that all they care about is preserving people's religious freedom?
