It is not the first time sisters have shown up at a Trump rally. Fox News reported on photos from a recent Ohio rally that showed nuns wearing MAGA masks and holding the Bible.
A Twitter user called out the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB), which endorsed pro-abortion, gay-marriage former Vice President Joe Biden.
Hey USCCB US Catholic Bishops:

“Hey USCCB US Catholic Bishops: These nuns — sisters of the Children of Mary Newark, Ohio, at Trump rally Circleville Ohio are the praying faces of the Catholic faithful in U.S. — Not Joe Biden Nancy Pelosi James Martin S.J.,” the tweet read.

Fox News reported:
During the Republican National Convention, another nun, Sister Deirdre Byrne, called the president the “most pro-life president ever.”
“Donald Trump is the most pro-life president that this nation has ever had, defending life at all stages. His belief in the sanctity of life transcends politics,” Byrne said.
“President Trump will stand up against Biden-Harris, who are the most anti-life presidential ticket ever, even supporting the horrors of late-term abortions and infanticide,” Byrne said.
