43. As a born-and-raised Catholic who has not seen the inside of a church for 25 years...

There are more than one root cause for the abomination that is Trump.

Religion failed, but it was joined by the traditional press, the media/TV outlets, the entirety of the GOP, Congress abdicating its role, and many more entities.

In short, we are in this mess because of the systemic failure of our entire government and can't get back to level without a MASSIVE correction and shift. We have one last chance in November to mimic the Hungary election results and stop this insanity.
