Trump blasts Pope Leo as ‘weak,’ says he prefers his ‘MAGA’ brother after pontiff’s veiled jabs over Iran war, immigration


President Trump slammed Pope Leo XIV for being “weak on crime,” and “terrible for foreign policy” in a lengthy Truth Social post Sunday night.

“Pope Leo is WEAK on Crime, and terrible for Foreign Policy,” Trump wrote.

“I don’t want a Pope who thinks it’s OK for Iran to have a Nuclear Weapon. I don’t want a Pope who thinks it’s terrible that America attacked Venezuela, a Country that was sending massive amounts of Drugs into the United States and, even worse, emptying their prisons, including murderers, drug dealers, and killers, into our Country,” he continued.
