Even Cardinal Dolan. Be friendly towards Trump, and now the left must trash you. Disgusting, IMO.

Cardinal Dolan: Left Wing Is ‘Snotty’ over My Dealings with President Trump
New York Cardinal Timothy Dolan has stood by his recent dealings with President Trump in the face of criticism from Catholic Democrats, insisting Catholics believe in dialogue and engagement.
“Now the left wing is snotty about the fact that I was part of a conference call with Catholic leaders, and I just say, ‘Look, are we in the sacred enterprise of accompaniment and engagement and dialogue, or are we not?” he asked in an online Facebook interview with Jesuit Father Matt Malone, editor-in-chief of America Media.
“When you do it, you risk criticism on both sides. When you don’t do it, well, then what do you do? You become Amish,” he said.
On Friday, Catholic Democrats from the George Soros-funded group Faith in Public Life (FPL) posted an online letter blasting Cardinal Dolan and other bishops for engaging in a phone call last Saturday with President Trump, insisting that the president is “not pro-life.”
“Instead of challenging Trump’s cruelty toward immigrants, denial of climate change and racism, Cardinal Dolan praised the president,” the letter declared. “He even joked he talked to Trump more than his own mother.”
“The cardinal then went on Fox News to thank Trump for his sensitivity to ‘the feelings of the religious community,’” the letter lamented.
In his interview Friday, Cardinal Dolan said he takes heat from the right and from the left, which is the price of engaging in dialogue.
“Put it in perspective: I’m getting much more criticism from those on what you might call the ‘right,’ who are saying, ‘Why in the world did you work with Sen. Schumer on the sustenance package” and with Gov. Cuomo and Mayor de Blasio? Dolan asked.
Dolan said his approach is an answer to Pope Francis’s call for “bridge-building.”
