Trump has said that although he was “confirmed at a Presbyterian church as a child, I now consider myself to be a non-denominational Christian.”

Uhhhh....he's not even Catholic? That's kinda a prerequisite for THE LEADER OF THE CATHOLIC CHURCH!

He's completely trolling, right? I mean it's gotta be cover for something happening that he wants to distract people from. He can't be that stupid that to think he can actually be Pope......can he?

[–] [email protected] 22 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

I don't think he's trolling, I think he's just that stupid.

He's no stranger to becoming leader of something while having no idea how it works.

He's distracting from the fact that he called for all Democrats to be removed from Congress. It's a smokescreen bc of how ludicrous it is.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 weeks ago

Why should the call for removal not be a smokescreen?

What is the thing that the upper class does that doesn't receive any attention but should make us worried?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Also, not news in my opinion. Sorry.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Exactly.

It's all meant to make people outraged and distracted, and we all keep falling for it.

Please let's not entertain completely absurd shit like that.

Imagine every time your boomer aunt posted that same shit Trump does on her Facebook it ended up in the news-- it's clearly delusional and giving it attention gives it validity even if it is only criticisms.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 weeks ago

This is so frustrating, right? The king of the baboons is insane and addicted to attention, so he throws shit around and spits at everyone who comes to close. And all the other baboons circle around him, watching every move he makes so they can jump and scream as soon as he does.
Stop reporting, stop reacting, it doesn't accomplish anything, it's a waste of time.

Wouldn’t even be in the top 5 of the worst or most immoral popes in history, which is crazy.

To be fair he is a molester

More zone flooding. Ignore and move on.

What a weird cunt

Is this how we get the Orange Catholic Bible?

Frank Herbert was a genius writer, and we should never forget that.

This guy reminds me of that movie Little Nicky where Satan’s son comes to earth and is preaching to a church congregation (while standing in a pizza? Am I remembering this accurately?).

He even paints his face orange like the devil lol

Edit: Here it is

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Okay, he can be the pope if it means he is no longer president. There is slightly less damage he can do that way!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 weeks ago

A lot less damage I'd say. Also, the job is for life, and even if he resigned they'd lock him away in some villa and he wouldn't be allowed to make public statements anymore.

Win win win if you ask me.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

He misread pope as rape and signed right up.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 weeks ago

Or maybe he figured he could molest more children

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 weeks ago

Someone invoke the TAKE IT DOWN act on it

What's is even happening in this country

The trajectory of the shit moving toward the fan has reached its end.

Do his hands look small? Even AI couldn't give Trump normal sized hands?
