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.
I love how they lost their shit about an American speaking Italian, in Italy, to a shit load of Italians.
The American nationalism has truly rotted their brains.
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.
I would be surprised if there are more than a couple hundred people in the US who have ever actually read the bible.
That’s just silly. Many millions likely have. But I get your point.
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.
Maybe the church knows better than to have a concordat with the nazis this time.
Maybe.
GOOD! that means he was the right choice…
Are they actually saying “Marxist” now? That’s new.
They’ve been saying that for years.
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.
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.

Funny thing is he’s the first American pope.
You’d think that counts for something and they would be yelling “USA! USA! USA!”. But nah, a pope espousing some actual Christian values is terrible according to them.
As a liberal leftist or whatever they would call me… Yeah f** the pope and the church. Let’s join together unified against a common evil.
You’d join hands with fascists against a pope put in place to oppose it?
I’m an atheist and I have no use for any religion, but if this new Pope pisses off MAGA, I could become a fan.
