Trump lashes out at pope again: 'Someone please tell Pope Leo...'

President Donald Trump continued his broadsides against Pope Leo XIV on Monday night, asking “someone” to tell the pontiff about the crimes of the Iranian regime.

Trump has clashed with the new pope, who has criticized the president’s immigration policies and his decision to wage war on Iran.

On Friday, the pope tweeted, “God does not bless any conflict. Anyone who is a disciple of Christ, the Prince of Peace, is never on the side of those who once wielded the sword and today drop bombs.”

Trump called the pope “WEAK” in a Truth Social post on Sunday and said, “I don’t want a Pope who criticizes the President of the United States because I’m doing exactly what I was elected, IN A LANDSLIDE, to do.” Trump also posted an AI-generated image of himself as a Jesus-esque figure tending to a sick man. The post drew backlash, including from MAGA-friendly media. The president has since deleted the post and claimed he thought it depicted him as a doctor.

But Donny is just fine and dandy with the crimes of Vladimir Putin, Kim Jong Un and Prince Bonesaw. It's about the oil. Only a MAGA moron thinks otherwise.

He probably wishes the Pope was on Trip Advisor so he could give 1 star

Anyone who does anything because of Yelp reviews is as big an idiot as tRump and his cult members.

You were elected because you're a lying sack of shit. You said no new wars and America first. And you would release the Epstein files which are still not all out. You are an incompetent piece of shit!
