I’m ever so closer to crossing Trump suggesting the US goes to war with the Vatican City off my 2025 bingo card…

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

I wonder how switzerland would react.
Well first he'll suggest it become the next US state
Imagine being more conservative than the Catholic Church.
That's probably one of the most positive things written about the new pope.
From what I have read so far, he's the "middle of the road" candidate, your average, run-of-the-mill, Catholic bishop:
A little anti-LGBT, just a bit of a pedophile protector and apologist, default-sexist ... but not hard-line enough to make any of it his entire personality.
Of course Laura Loonie is against anything that is good in the world.
According to headlines lately, MAGA melts down fucking constantly. I hypothesize that they're actually just liquid. They aren't 'melting down', this is just their natural state.
“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
I don’t understand the point you’re making. The new pope is the first American pope.
Because for you "American" = USA and for the person you replied to "American" = "American continent", which, of course, makes sense for any non-murican.
“Progressive values” - do they even read the new testament? Compassion is the overt message of the Jesus they claim to follow.
They follow supply side Jesus, the prosperity gospel, and gravitate towards passages that they can use as a cudgel on people who are ew gross yucky to them.
Very good! I see this as confirmation that they elected the right man for the job 😊
Someone that does this to herself calling anything else "gross"... 😂 🤣
is that the same person?!
I think the one on the right is from some The Purge sequel.

New Pope Robert Francis Prevost, the Pedophile Protector!
Yeah, great choice....

I’ve posted this before but they don’t get to say “not my pope” they don’t get a vote. That’s the reality of faith based leaderships.
I was sooooooo fed up with MAGA Catholics telling me if I wasn’t down with the Opus Dei right wing bullshit during JP2 then I wasn’t really Catholic.
It has been much nicer since we have had Popes focused on creating a better world rather than capitulating to the demands of Eastern Orthodoxy.
You think thats bad? You should read what their so called messiahs policies were.
