Trump Lambasts Pope Leo XIV
The feud between the White House and the Vatican escalated after Pope Leo XIV denounced a 'delusion of omnipotence' fueling the conflict in the Middle East.
Trump responded by claiming the Pope was only chosen to deal with him and suggested the pontiff should 'stop catering to the Radical Left.' The President also shared an AI-generated image of himself as Jesus Christ shortly after the tirade.
Catholic leaders and US Senators have condemned the remarks as 'abhorrent' and 'blasphemous.'
