      WASPy.

      I mean - at this point - WASPs and most Catholics are pretty much the same. Eventually it’ll be a problem if Trump gets a third term because by then Catholics will be added to Jews as not quite good enough for the GOP. But I assume GOP SCOTUS will have official honorary WASP status.
