I wonder what JD Vance thinks about this new pope... And what do you guys think: was this election a political message? Or was this pope elected bcs he is regarded as the right answer for the future of the Roman Catholic Church?

What an amazing man! He is HONORED...meaning he is very HONORABLE!!! Once he sees that the Pope is woke though, he will certainly change his mind and outlaw these people that hate America!!!

Give him a minute. After he learns what Pope Bob had to say about Trump & Vance, he'll either start bad-mouthing him, or take credit for his election (or both). Note to Diaper Donny: you are no longer the most well-known American on Earth. You mad, bro?

Disagree. A healthy chunk of Trump's maga base are Catholics. More importantly, 6 SCOTUS justices are Catholic, 5 of them "Republican" justices.

I’m Catholic and a Democrat. I have many friends and family who are Catholic and Democrats. Has anyone actually studied voter preferences by religion? I haven’t seen any polls on that. Anyway, in my case, I have no Interest in what he says.

Don't know about "studies," but exit polls show a big shift toward Trump among Catholic voters, particularly Latino Catholics. We have no one to blame but ourselves. So it's up to us to fix it. www.catholicnewsagency.com/news/261317/...

And again, I'm most concerned/hopeful that Leo's anti-Trump, anti-authoritarian views will have an effect on the thinking of Roberts, Coney-Barrett, and (hopefully) Kavanaugh. Alito & Thomas are, I fear, lost causes.

I'm surprised he's not claiming that God had told him (or perhaps that should be he told God) that the next Pope was going to be American and that was why he posted a picture of himself in the Papal garments.

Wait until Trump reads what Pope Leo said about him coming from Chicago. Trump's going to wish Pope Francis was still around. Pope Leo's lived with Trump up close in America, and knows him.
