Trump Feuds With Pope Leo

Pope Leo XIV, the first American to lead the Catholic Church, has called Trump's threats against Iran 'unacceptable,' prompting the President to label the Pope 'weak on crime.' Trump eventually deleted the AI-generated image following bipartisan backlash, claiming he believed it depicted him as a doctor.

The feud has dismayed American Catholics and drawn rebukes from international leaders, including Italian Premier Giorgia Meloni.

Vice President JD Vance has defended the President, suggesting the Vatican should 'stick to matters of morality' rather than politics.
