Cardinal Schönborn: ‘What is currently happening in the USA is extremely dangerous’

CWN Editor's Note: Cardinal Christoph Schönborn, the retired archbishop of Vienna, said in a newspaper column that “what is currently happening in the USA is extremely dangerous.”

“Trade agreements are being broken unilaterally, existing state rights are being called into question, existing law and its constitutional safeguards are being pushed aside,” he wrote. “The powerful dictate their will, regardless of what is contractually agreed.”

    Cardinal Schönborn could consult his strong opinion with Archbishop Naumann of Kansas City who just praised President Trump for addressing the threat to national security posed by "violent gangs, individuals with serious criminal histories, dealers of lethal illegal drugs, human traffickers." The Cardinal ended his column asking: "Is that what we want?" That depends on who is the "we." Both the election results and the latest approval ratings prove that it is indeed what We the People want.
