Laura Loomer lamented that the new pope āis anti-Trump, anti-MAGA, pro-open Borders, and a total Marxist like Pope Francis,ā adding that itās āGROSSā that he now leads the Catholic Church
It didnāt 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 heād 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 āWOKE MARXIST POPEā and complained that he is āworse than Francis,ā referencing the previous pontiff known for his progressive values.
Even before the ādark horseā American cardinal was elected the 267th pope, former Trump chief strategist Steve Bannon warned about Prevostās views, claiming that he would be a poor choice for the MAGA movement.
all Protestant religions do not accept the pope as leader, thatās the basic definition. They all broke off from Catholicism by disagreeing with something but usually it boiled down to not following the pope. Whether it was a king who wanted to divorce and remarry at will or a king who wanted to control his country or an alternate pope.
