The Donald vs. The Pope
http://www.wsj.com/articles/pope-fra...od=rss_US_News

Personally, I'm beginning to wonder if Trump is even human.

I was toying with the idea of posting this Dave and glad that you did so that I can pontificate on this issue.

First and foremost, religious leaders with any significant following should stay the hell out of politics. Politics is human and not divine. Any and every political system or government headed by a religious leader is fucked up from the word go. I don't need to provide examples.

But, after the Pope holding a massive Mass across the border and then making this comment will only help Trump in the immediate term, especially with the independents. I will be anxiously waiting for Trump's response.

+1 on that.

And here is Trump's response:

I doubt Trump supporters care one way or the other about what the Pope says.

The latino vote will be 100% democratic now. Thanks Donald, you vulgar talking yam.

The Pope is over stepping.

He is rude.

The Pope spoke his mind as does the Donald, but one is in selfless service of his flock and the other a vacuous egotistical asshole.

The pope should spend more time cleaning up his awful pedophile mess.

Exactly. I haven't heard the squid claim that the molesters aren't Christian. What a P.O.S.
