Trump Feuds With Pope Leo
The unprecedented clash between the White House and the Vatican has sent shockwaves through the American Catholic community and alienated key European allies.
President Trump doubled down on his criticism, stating the Pope should 'stick to matters of morality' rather than interfering in geopolitics.
Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni issued a rare rebuke of Trump, defending the Pope's right to advocate for peace.
Religious leaders across the political spectrum have condemned the president's AI Jesus post as blasphemous, suggesting it marks a significant fracture in his conservative coalition.
