Pope tries to Trump the Donald

In US colleges, this hat is racist

I believe that Pope Francis ought to speak less about politics and more about Jesus. If he wants to go all out Catholic, he can discuss the Virgin Mary and the confraternity version of the New Testament. But Donald Trump's faith? He doesn't know the Donald.

I am not advocating for any GOPer at this time, and I have certain reservations about Trump, but the more liberals and socialists such as the Pope speak about him, the more attractive as president he becomes.

Why isn't the pontiff discussing the fact that Obama is not attending the Catholic funeral of Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia? That is a fact, unless he changes his mind due to the public's disgust. 

But Pope Francis would rather speak from a position of conjecture than fact.

I don't know if Donald Trump is a "true Christian," because I cannot know what's in his heart and mind, even though he appears to speak his mind. And the Pope doesn't know either.

The fact that Trump wants to keep illegal immigrants out of the country by building a wall, does not translate into his not being a Christian. In fact, if it keeps Islamic State jihadists out, that would protect Christians (and Jews) from people coming into the country via Mexico.

But Pope Francis' visit to Mexico has apparently influenced his rhetoric.

Stop the balderdash. Be a Pope!
