I predict Trump will go so far off the rails he'll threaten to take away Church tax-exempt status if Pope Leo doesn't attend a state dinner at the WH, he kiss the ring, grant him immunity from all transgretions outside of duties of office of the presidency, + photo op trading meme coin for Pope hat.
I understand where you are coming from. for me, I think it’s awesome that he is American. But I think the joke for a lot of us is not directed at the pope but at dOnald tRump and his over inflated ego. I sincerely mean no disrespect to the pope or the Catholic Church.
💯 agree.
Also, life on earth boils down to politics.
And, 🇺🇸’s politics have always had a profound direct + indirect impact on ppl’s lives around our 🌏.
I honestly believe this was a strategic move on the part of the conclave to select an American who can counter the toxic anti-immigrant narrative of the Pig God, Lord of the Slop.
The official ones sold at his online store are made in the US and are pretty pricey. MAGA hats are $36 and Trump 2028 hats are $50. There are plenty of less expensive Chinese hats out there, sold online and at booths outside at his rallies
The Vatican's been ripping us off for decades. That ends today. Trump bringing those high-paying, higher productivity Pope jobs back to the good ol' US of A. Promises Made. Promises Kept.
Imports from Vatican City to the US averaged 0.11 USD million from 1990 to 2024, according to Trading Economics. that's 110K a yr. i don't think they are overly worried about tariffs
Trump better watch out ... first Musk took his chair. Now President Leo might decide he likes the look of the oval office. Who's gonna really be running the place? All those born agains in congress might want to watch their own seats.
This witch is a hateful weirdo. Don’t even like commenting on anything mentioning this witch. Deserves no attention. Have to cut it off from the head. The whole lot of them.
Trump doesn’t give two shits about moral authority. He doesn’t know anything about Pope Leo yet. As soon as he wakes up, he’ll be attacking this Pope head on, attempting to turn the Catholic faithful against him or threatening him w/ Alcatraz. Hopefully Leo can turn the faithful against Trump first.
I’m just thrilled that Pope Leo has publicly criticized both Trump & Vance policies or statements . . . not that MAGA evangelicals give a flying fuck about what the Pope thinks, but at least he’s unafraid to stand up to bullies . . .😄
It just looked tacky, and like he slept in it after a frat party. I wonder if he was snoring, too, bc one shot was of a guy to his right staring at him and the trump wife glaring at him on his left. I can’t think of a time he hasn’t embarrassed me on an international trip.
Nothing ever fits him correctly - it always looks sloppy. I can't imagine what it would have been like to have to sit beside him - especially if he was snoring.
He always looks tacky. His suits are made from the cheapest cloth and designed to be too big for him. He thinks it makes him look svelte. Nothing will make him look thin. He doesn't even have taste in his mouth.
"all prayers coming into the states by the vatican will have a 25% tariff assessed, making the prayers 13% less effective". Wanna make a deal Pope-y-boy! Call Donnie Don today. 1-877-facists.
He claims it's a great honor for the USA. First, not everything in the world is about us. Second, maybe they hope an American-born pope will get through to this (monolingual) country better than somebody who speaks with a non-American accent.
If it’s the second coming, that means he was already deported once. So, Jesus gonna be headed to the El Salvador gulag with no due process. You know, the ‘Murican way!
Now MAGA Catholics are going to have to choose between their Golden Calf and the Pope of their church. It's going to be fun to watch them try to straddle the fence on this one.
But they are mere humans, the Catholic Church!! Along with being humans, they are business wise, politicians, entertainers, social media users, lawyers, and clergy. We can’t really be that naive, right?!!!
Tariffs are just a tiny part of it. The cardinals elected Leo XIV because he was their best chance to battle and exorsize the evil that resides in Donald Trump.
The tweet was a joke because no country in the world has actual commerce with the Vatican that would require tariffs. Also, no one can heal the evil in Trump, it would stay with him until he dies.
Thank goodness, I was looking at the Popemobile the other day and debating with the wife about getting one, she brought up tariffs so this is good news.
Comments
Trump - Year 2: "The switch was mislabeled. It was actually 'severe recession.' My bad."
If they send Vance to meet the new Pope you know what they are up to.
MAGATs hate him

be worried about being deported if he ever goes back.
That is perfect!
He’s not the most powerful man in America nor the most powerful American in the world
Trump will never forget his name now.
I am thrilled too! Pope Francis used to like to stick to Trump as well. So good to see Pope Leo does too! He seems like a good person.
If it makes MAGAt heads explode I'm for it!
He just cannot control himself.
And they might not like his DEI policies 😀
“ Even the Vatican wants to buy American … MAGA”
AWESOME!!!
Incredible
