Romney was pretty even on the Catholic Vote while Trump is heading for a disaster, is there any demographic he can win?

But relatively speaking, his biggest problem actually appears to be with a different group: Catholics.
Yes, the man who once feuded with the pope (how soon we forget that actually happened) is cratering among Catholics.
Back in 2012, GOP nominee Mitt Romney lost the Catholic vote by just 2 points, 50 percent to 48 percent. And the GOP has actually won the Catholic vote as recently as 2004 and in 5 of the last 10 11 presidential elections.

How will getting killed among Catholic voters determine PA for Trump?

I may be misinterpreting what you wrote, but I though that you were saying that somehow this was a positive for DJT carrying Pennsylvania.

You have asked this twice. I guess you're waiting for someone to say the white male (racist) vote?

He must have meant it in a negative way. From wiki,

"According to the Association of religion data archives (ARDA) at Pennsylvania State University, the largest religions in Pennsylvania by adherents are the Roman Catholic Church with 3,503,028 adherents,"

As jews have proved, religion has little to do wit politics. Republicans are most pro Israel but jews routinely vote agains them 70-30. Trump may lose PA but not because of religion. Those Catholics might have other reasons to vote for him. Just because 60% of plumbers may vote against Trump, it doesn't mean Trump has a problem with pipes and fittings.
