Donald Trump has done what many people thought impossible, winning back the presidency four years after losing it. He owes his victory in no small measure to Catholic voters. In 2020, we backed him by the slimmest of margins, with Trump winning 50 percent of Catholics to Joe Biden’s 49 percent. Yet in 2024, Trump beat Kamala Harris by a ten-point margin among Catholics, making major gains among both whites and Hispanics. The question now is: What do Catholics want Donald Trump to do?

The answer is another seemingly impossible task.
