“So, I must point out that our new President has pledged to pursue certain policies that would advance moral evils and threaten human life and dignity.”—words that the @USCCB never applied to Trump.

Is that actually so? While I see your broader point, haven't they spoken out against the use of the death penalty in very similar terms?

That's because Trump had not made it an issue during his campaign. If you look back before and after Trump's inauguration there were bishops' statements critical of Trump's immigration & border wall policies.
