Laura Loomer lamented that the new pope ‘is anti-Trump, anti-MAGA, pro-open Borders, and a total Marxist like Pope Francis,’ adding that it’s ‘GROSS’ that he now leads the Catholic Church
It didn’t take long for right-wing media figures and MAGA provocateurs to cry out in rage over the election of Robert Prevost as Pope Leo XIV after it was revealed that he’d publicly criticized JD Vance and expressed sympathy for immigrants and George Floyd.
Despite feeling national pride over the fact that the Chicago-born Prevost has become the first American pope in history, conservative pundits and Trump loyalists fumed over the “WOKE MARXIST POPE” and complained that he is “worse than Francis,” referencing the previous pontiff known for his progressive values.
Even before the “dark horse” American cardinal was elected the 267th pope, former Trump chief strategist Steve Bannon warned about Prevost’s views, claiming that he would be a poor choice for the MAGA movement.
Are we talking about the one that died or his new replacement?
Edit: its about the new Pope (Pope Leo) not the old pope (pope Francis). Apparently the dead progressive pope was replaced with another progressive pope. Cool
Old pope appointed the bishops who appointed new pope so liberal was pretty much guaranteed. The American thing was a surprise.
The last one was American too tho
Wasn’t he Argentinian?
Yes.
Woke Marxist Pope? Well shit, I just might start going to church again
I just want to add. Anyone that ACTUALLY FOLLOWS the teachings of the bible, cannot with good conscious support Donald Trump.
As I told my mother and father yesterday, I firmly believe that under the Trump regime that if for any reason this new Pope comes to America that he’ll either be captured and tortured before being killed or just straight up killed for being a traitor.
MAGA hating the new pope is the biggest compliment he could possibly get
Yep I’d be crying with joy if I were him
This article basically just gives a platform to right wing nutjons and their conspiracy theories
Why isn’t there a single quote from Pope Leo XIV?
“In case you’re wondering why they picked an American to be a Pope for the first time in history,” MAGA influencer Vince…
Lol, the pope that literally just died was from Argentina, you dumbass
Maybe the church knows better than to have a concordat with the nazis this time.
Maybe.
Are they actually saying “Marxist” now? That’s new.
GOOD! that means he was the right choice…
I’m not catholic anymore but I’m getting real sick of people who converted because they like the vibes the religion had in the fucking 1500s.
is anti-Trump, anti-MAGA, pro-open Borders, and a total Marxist
Wtf I love the pope now!
They’re making him sound way cooler than he actually is
I imagine he’s still against birth control, gay marriage, women priests, etc. He’s pretty conservative.
That said, he’s for not treating others like total shit, even people you don’t know. Also he spoke in Italian, instead of English, while giving his first speech in Italy to a crowd dominated by Italians. So MAGA hates him.
He should excommunicate them all.
Pretty sure none of them are Catholic, which makes it even weirder that they care about the Pope at all.
JD Vance converted to Catholicism 5 or 6 years ago, apparently.
5-6 years conversion and then killing the pope using his cringe. What a run!
Maybe keep him away from this one? Throw him a nice leather couch to distract him.
MAGA needs to learn new words. Radical leftist marxist communists (which are all contradictory things) is pretty fucking stupid.
MAGA? Learn?
MAGA ISN’T A MOVEMENT IT’S A REGIME.
Totallyyy not a cult.
