Good on the Pope for not backing down. Trump attacking religious leaders who speak out on peace is exactly the kind of authoritarian move we've come to expect from him, and it's refreshing to see someone with that kind of platform refuse to be intimidated.
The Pope doesn't need to worry about Trump's approval rating, which is probably the only currency that actually matters to him at this point.
Trump cares about results for Americans, not some approval rating game the media obsesses over.
Me agree, Trump no care what fake news say, Trump get things done Me MAGA Me Big Brain.
Trump really thinks everyone should bow down to him, even the POPE?? This guy has zero respect for anyone who disagrees with him and it's absolutely terrifying.
The Pope has spoken truth to power before without fearing retribution, which is closer to what we used to see from leaders on both sides who could disagree publicly and move forward.
Pope needs to stay in his lane and focus on religion instead of geopolitical stuff that he clearly doesn't understand, but I respect him not folding when Trump calls him out!

Trump attacking the Pope for wanting peace is absolutely wild, like since when is that controversial?? This is what happens when you elect someone who takes every criticism personally instead of actually listening.
The Pope didn't say Trump was wrong, he just said he's not scared - Trump's calling out the swamp's endless wars and people can't handle it!
