TFG takes a swipe at Catholics and Jews who did not vote for him

Former president Donald Trump complained about Catholics and Jews who did not vote for him in the 2020 election despite all he did for their communities.

Trump made the comments in a campaigning call on Thursday organized by the religious group Intercessors for America.

"I did a lot for the Catholics. And I don't know, you know, I'm a little bit surprised that we didn't do better with the Catholic vote," Trump said.

"I think now they would give us their vote. I think we got about 50% of the vote. And yet, we did a lot for the Catholic vote. So we'll have to talk to them. We're gonna have to meet with the Catholics."

Sounds like a mob boss criticizing a rival gang and thinking about meeting with their chief.

So, will he go to Rome, or invite the Pope to Mar-a-Lago?
Will he make them an offer they can't refuse?
It's all in the (F)art of the deal.

You know that the official stance of the Catholic Church is anti-death penalty, right? Are you saying that Catholics should have chosen you over Mother Church? That you know better than God? Because that's what it sounds like.

See, I gave you the destruction of Roe by the fundy wingnuts I put on the court.

I am sure he believes that if they had struck down Roe and put bounties on women before the election, he would have gotten 100% of the Catholic vote.

He already has all the pedo-priests in his pocket.

Oh, and fuck the Catholic church. They brought this Texas shit to all of us.

Pope Francis Can Barely Hide How He Feels About Donald Trump

It's almost like a religious leader might resent the amoral monster in the White House.


BY JACK MOORE
GQ, May 24, 2017

Excerpt…

Donald Trump visited the Vatican today. You might recall that during the election, Pope Francis had some harsh words for the "Republican" saying, "A person who thinks only about building walls, wherever they may be, and not building bridges, is not Christian." This led to a news cycle where, I swear to God ("you're going to hell&quot , people on the Right like Sean Hannity, basically asked who the Pope is to say someone is not Christian. So I, like many others, was eager to see how the Pope received our president who stands for everything that real Catholicism (often at odds with The Church as an institution) is opposed to. Short answer? Pope Francis does not like Donald Trump.

I hate the fact that the media contributes to making him still think he's relevant. Cut him off!

"We're gonna have to meet with the Catholics." What a total fucking asshole!

and I will never vote for that slimy, greasy, race-baiting, putrid, hateful asshole. He's done nothing for my Catholic community other than add to the divisions by giving people who are already racist and want to justify fascistic overreach a candidate to propel.

He can go eat shit.
