Respectfully, I must disagree with His Excellency, Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò, regarding his position that it is morally obligatory for American Catholics to vote in the upcoming elections.
While his position comes from good intentions (he and I often agree on matters), I assert the opposite to be true: Catholics should abstain from such an obvious kangaroo election. Whenever you get involved with these affairs, you not only will not improve the social-political landscape, but instead expedite its deterioration. That makes you culpable for it, too.
Although I can understand Abp. Vigano’s concerns . . .
“Candidate Donald J. Trump . . . the only possible choice to counter the globalist coup that the woke Left is about to implement definitively, irreparably, and with incalculable damage for future generations.”
This ignores the fact that the American nation-state (like all of its western, freemasonic sister states) has already fallen into an irreparable condition.
The best way to assist further generations is to pray for this empire’s demise, and divert our attention to enabling our society’s return to the social kingship of Christ. Even if Donald Trump was a moral paragon, a proverbial Charlamagne, it would be wrong to give this election process any credence whatsoever.
Why do I believe this? What are the specific reasons we should eschew the entire 2024 voting carnival altogether?
The Seat of Caesar is Vacant (Just Like the Papacy)
As I wrote in Caesar Vacantism, the United States is NOT ANY LONGER a legitimate nation-state or country, owing to several glaring deficiencies. It fails to meet the basic criteria to qualify for lawful “statehood.” The worst problems include:
- It’s a communist regime, if we reference Marx’s 10 Planks, and has been for a great long time.
- It does not protect its boundaries (which may as well not exist at this point).
- We hold elections while allowing the participation of dead people, illegal immigrants, and probably even animals.
- Many jurisdictions do not uphold the rule of law (recall, for example, the Antifa Riots, which were permitted with impunity).
- Above all else, the fake rulers, who were never elected but self-installed, possess a BURNING HATRED of all Americans.
- These damnable circumstances were created intentionally by the perennial enemies of God, truth, and justice → Jewish Freemasons.
Therefore, Americans (especially Catholics) cannot go along with the election charades. You should not only abstain from voting, but one day you’ll have to account for why you would offer any consent to this rotten “democracy,” given the havoc it’s wrought. You will have to explain why you acquiesced to this just like you’ll have to explain why you paid taxes to the abortionist, eugenicist, social-engineering, perpetual-war machine.
More to the point, there is a plausible case that all the election personalities (Grand-mala, Trump, etc.) are all in cahoots, perpetrating yet another globalist psy-op. I wouldn’t be the first to suggest that the entirety of American politics is little more than Kabuki Theater.
“Hey! This is discouraging! You could make people scrupulous by writing this way. Folks just want to exercise their civic duty, like good Catholics.”
As usual, we shall focus on encouragement at the end of the article, but first, we must call a spade a spade, a fag a fag, and fraudulent elections . . . fraudulent. You cannot offer true encouragement without disinfecting the social-political wounds first.
Furthermore, I do not intend to evoke scruples because this is, in fact, an easily navigable topic: the elections are evil and beneath the dignity of observant Catholics. Scruples, to the contrary, are more difficult to adjudicate, require a competent spiritual director, and steadfast obedience to said director.
This election illegitimacy is much more obvious, my friends.
Catholics Cannot Create or Partake in Fiction and Pretend It’s Real
On the one hand, it is permissible for Catholics to partake in simulations and fictitious activities (like acting in a play/movie, or writing a fictional story). It would, however, be sinful to do these things and pretend they are real life. This is equally true of those who orchestrate the election chicanery AND those who participate as voting accomplices.
Limitless Election Fraud and Trannies: What’s the Difference?
We may ask ourselves, which of the following is worse?
Would it be the man who sins against his own nature (and God’s creation) pretending to be a woman, vampire, or elf? What about the delusional Catholic who ought to know 21st-century politics is a sham, yet insists on voting anyway?
The former group (trannies, vampires, and elf fetishists) possess a profound mental illness and are woefully far gone by this point. The latter involves Catholics who hold false hopes in secular/cultural leadership even when it was those same “leaders” who enabled all the trannies and other perverts. I cannot imagine trusting or consenting to a more wretched hive of scum and villainy.
As I’ve said often on this blog, with the moral certitude found in the Psalms, let us never trust or put our faith in princes. This infallible wisdom becomes even clearer as we discover all the contemporary princes to be nothing better than phony usurpers and civilizational marauders.
Conclusion – Do Something More Authentic & Worthwhile with Your Time
Fortunately, there are many alternatives to participating in the stupid election nonsense. Below is an inexhaustive list of tasks, chores, spiritual exercises, and virtue-building opportunities for your consideration.
- Pray the Rosary every day (15 decades)
- Go to the gym, lift heavy weights, and lose body fat (men can improve their testosterone levels)
- Get out of debt (i.e., slavery to the Jewish Freemasons who puppeteer the fake elections)
- Educate yourself on the Antichurch and Bergoglian Antipapacy, thereby preventing yourself from succumbing to scandal.
- Ignore or avoid all the various illusions in today’s world: “Pope Francis,” western liberal democracies, the Novus Ordo culture, popular culture, the mainstream media, most medical treatments, and so forth.
- Read Holy Scriptures and Pray the Divine Office
- Read the Daily Meditations by St. Alphonsus Liguori
These are the worthwhile practices, which, far from being trivial, ridiculous, or deceitful, are the most important for Catholics who wish to survive our times (and meet God in eternity). Any of those are drastically superior to wasting so much time and mental energy on the election absurdity.
Again, may God bless the otherwise insightful Abp. Vigano, that he may receive further enlightenment and oppose all components of the ludicrous American electoral politics.
Catholics Aren't Zombies! 
Christ is King!
Interesting article but it was bound to happen: finally something we do not see eye to eye on. Hehe. No worries, we will get through this.
So, am I Democrat? Independent? Republican? What does it matter? These are all secondary or tertiary or even farther.
First and foremost I am a Catholic Christian. For you and me when I say I’m Catholic, that implies I’m Christian but for the majority of the public sadly we have to make that distinction. More specifically I Am an Apostolic Catholic and Primitive Christian.
Then I am American, well half but good enough for government work, I am a veteran, and I am a citizen of North Carolina. I also try to be a good neighbor and friend to those who I encounter. Not just because our Lord orders us to love our neighbor as we love ourselves (Matthew 22:39), although that is the most important reason but it just makes daily living a lot easier.
Now we get to the nitty gritty. Should we vote? Why are we voting? It’s not just for a candidate, because neither one of them are who we would hope for as moral leaders, which America is lacking at the moment.
Obviously no candidate is going to be what we want them to be 100%. Should we throw in the towel because of that? I don’t think so. What’s at stake? Abortion (Exodus 2013, Deuteronomy 5:17, Psalms 22:9-10, Isaias and more) is one of the most important topics because everybody has something to say about it. Then there is attack on family (Genesis 2:18-24), on the woman (Proverbs 31:25-31), on children (Matthew 18:6).
Remember that momentous occasion when Roe versus Wade was overturned, and it brought the decision from the federal level back to the state level. This wasn’t the best outcome, because ideally I would like to see a total ban on abortion (with two caveats. One, eminent death of the mother if the pregnancy continues. This condition can occur with an ectopic pregnancy. Second, when there is no chance that the child will survive naturally after being born. Having conditions incompatible with natural life).
But this was still a huge victory for those unborn children who might be given a chance because of where the mother lives. I do not want to risk that to be reversed, or worse.
Then there is our country. We are Americans! This is our home. There is a threat that foreign invaders will be welcomed into our country, totally bypassing the need to enter illegally. This will further put hardship on our fellow citizens because these foreign invaders will get more than what even our veterans get after defending this country. I’m totally discounting the threat of terrorists, rapists, and murderers for this argument but I do recognize that these threats plainly exist.
Next there are our fellow countrymen. We want to be happy right? We want to be happy! What would make us happy? Lower gas prices, lower prices for food. Lower prices for medical care. Lower prices for general living. These in turn might decrease some of the rhetoric and the hate that is spreading through this country like wildfire. Results!
The idea of free IVF, sexual reassignment surgeries, free everything for non Americans, $6,000 tax cuts for new children, $25,000 tax cut for first time home buyers: never mind the diabolical implications of some of these, who’s paying for all this stuff?
Now, why should we vote? Is it our moral duty? Maybe. But more importantly I like to think that it is a privilege. A way of saying thank you to all of those who have given their lives for this great country. Because of their sacrifices, we are able to bring this country to a direction to help not just our fellow Americans but the world.
If we decide not to vote, first and foremost we don’t have a right to complain! But more importantly think of all those evil policies that are waiting in the wings to be realized. I’m not just talking about things that are worth money. But I’m talking about the attack on families, men, women and specially young children!
Of course the other candidate recognizes people who are “rich as hell”, and supposedly he wants to give tax cuts to millionaires and billionaires (as per this Democrat commercial I just saw). So what? Has anything a billionaire ever done affected you or me? Aside from President Trump during his 4 years in office obviously. I’m talking about the likes of Musk, Buffett, Gates, and Castro. Has there richness affected our poorness? Lol!
The bottom line, I would like this country to come home to Catholicism, I would like them to stomp out all of the evil practices which are spawns of self-love and Pride, I would like our Lord to be recognized as Ultimate Master, Absolute Savior, True King.
Sadly these will never happen. Even our Lord recognizes this in the Gospel:
The Holy Gospel According to St. Matthew:
22:16 And they sent to him their disciples with the Herodians, saying: Master, we know that thou art a true speaker and teachest the way of God in truth. Neither carest thou for any man: for thou dost not regard the person of men.
22:17 Tell us therefore what dost thou think? Is it lawful to give tribute to Caesar, or not?
22:18 But Jesus knowing their wickedness, said: Why do you tempt me, ye hypocrites?
22:19 Shew me the coin of the tribute. And they offered him a penny.
22:20 And Jesus saith to them: Whose image and inscription is this?
22:21 They say to him: Caesar’s. Then he saith to them: Render therefore to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s; and to God, the things that are God’s.
22:22 And hearing this, they wondered and, leaving him, went their ways.
Our Lord made the distinction between the two lives and so should we. I will live my life with all of His Truths and do what I can to change those around me and those who I encounter, by Glorifying God and trying to Save their Souls (by bringing them to the Truth of the Catholic Faith, as well as praying for them to our Lord that He may initiate a Conversion of Heart).
Meanwhile I’m going to vote not just for me but for you, all of our friends, all of our acquaintances, and associates, and even those who don’t particularly care for us. I will vote so we may have four years of relief from this literal hell we have been encountering, I will vote that we may end these wars in the Middle East as well as in Crimea and frankly so one of my friend’s son who is an officer in the United States Army won’t have to go and fight and potentially die for someone else’s war. That last one is selfish but I will own it.
In the end does it matter? There’s going to be a winner, and there is going to be a loser. Some people will be happy, some people will be sad.
No matter what though, how this election pans out we’ll decide the future of our country. Let us not look any farther than Rome to see what modernism is doing to the One Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church. We have talked about how we make our voice heard in Rome (by withholding money to diocesan Churches), so by voting in the election we are doing the same with the United States. Our vote is our voice.
Let us pray for the Church, pray for our country, pray for the true Consecration of Russia to the Immaculate Heart of Mary, pray for the loving Conversion of Anti Pope Jorge Bergoglio, and please pray for me because I am a wicked sinner.
Also for anyone who’s read this far, please offer a Holy Rosary for our fellow Catholic, and good friend Penny Silvers who will be undergoing surgery next Monday.
Ad Iesum Per Mariam. Thomas.

Thanks for a very detailed response, Thomas. I honestly don’t get enough substantive pushback on these topics, sometimes.
I suppose before I mention anything else, I should share yet another example of the soap-opera nature of this whole election business. ZeroHedge just posted this teaser for something that would “surely end Kamala’s campaign.”
So, yet again, we find further evidence that this all resembles pro-wrestling theatrics. I don’t know what the “campaign doomer” will be, but why in blazes (if any of this garbage is to be believed) would a massive bombshell wait all the way until late October to arrive? Yet again, the entire charade wreaks of incredible histrionics. More than a few of us believe that election politics are nothing better than an American bread-and-circus operation.
Regarding what you said about “throwing in the towel,” I think it depends on whether you give into despair, or divert from politics over to something more productive. If I were to stop caring about everything, cave into despair and antipathy, then I believe there’s a problem. For the most part, my position simply involves not wasting one’s time (on something potentially evil and manipulative) when we can work on those other bulletted items I suggested.
In general, I adhere to the school of thought that voting may actually rescind one’s right to complain. I think it was George Carlin or a libertarian writer who pretty thoroughly refuted the whole “no right to complain” position.
Regarding billioniares . . . I could do a whole article on that topic (let me know if I should, btw). My short answer: it depends on how they achieve their wealth, either through honest means or thievery. Many, though not all, of today’s billionaires, who pull further away from the pack in terms of wealth, did not acquire it fairly (*cough* Gates *cough, cough*).
Bottom Line (as I see it): The probability of Trump (or anyone else) resolving our problems is miniscule. Worse yet, there are credible arguments that he’s in league with the evildoers on the Left, serving as a distraction or what some call “controlled opposition.” We might scrutinize his radically horrible staffing decisions, especially his son-in-law, but also Anthony Fauci. It was even Trump who not only enabled but enacted that wicked “Warp Speed” program with the Death Vaxxes. More recently, he and his family have contradicted the pro-life fight by aligning with sodomites (Log Cabin Fag Republicans), altering the Republican platform on abortion, and several other offenses.
Yes, Trump would be substantially better than Grand-mala, but such a comparison only resembles a contest over who would be the tallest midget.
This cannot be where we’re placing any hope for civilizational reform. I can’t say that even his economic plans make much sense since he favors trade tariffs (the very thing that created the American Civil War). Then, it’s mathetmatically untenable to do tax cuts because this ridiculous empire has incurred $35 trillion of sovereign debt. Furthermore, we can look no further than Trump’s very own administration for clear evdience he will not reverse this trend (since his team, in unison with a Republican legislature, continued to grow the debt throughout his term).
Then again, if it’s any consolation, it is now obvious that no politician (or team of them) could resolve this insanity. It’s mathematically impossible (for man, at least).
I also mentioned (to someone who email responded) that we have solid reason to anticipate the arrival of the prophesied Great Monarch and Great Pontiff soon. As both the papacy and secular governance experience massive crises, this is likely the only escape from our current predicament.
I hope this helps clarify things further. Admittedly, I wrote this article in about 24 hours and didn’t include as much detail and deep-dive as I often do. There’s much more to say about Trump’s efficacy or authenticity. However, I think there’s more than enough reason to be suspicious of a macro-secular solution to the Stage-6 cancer afflicting western civilization.
Ave Maria! Happy Feast of St. Raphael!
