Donald Trump has been laughing at Catholics since the death of Pope Francis, who was thought to be a fan of the president. His supporters, like Senator Lindsey Graham, have raised Trump’s name to the next Pope.
Trump recently posted an image re-shared as Pope by his own White House.
The New York State Catholic Conference was not amusing as it posted on images Trump shared.
There’s nothing smart about this image or interesting, Mr. President. We have just buried our beloved Pope Francis, and the Cardinals are about to enter the strict conclave to elect a new successor to St. Peter. Don’t laugh at us.
It’s something Donald Trump does to laugh at people in times of pain and weakness.
Ruth Bengiatt posted on X in response to Trump’s post:
If you read #strongmen, it’s actually normal as the leader becomes more isolated from reality and becomes more grandiose and unfallable. It is a sign that they have become more indifferent and dangerous.
The reason the US is in a dangerous cycle right now is because Trump is failing as president.
The more Donald Trump fails as president, the more he is separated from reality. The more he is separated from reality, the more dangerous he becomes.
I don’t mean anything dangerous in terms of loosening the military to Americans. He is as dangerous as starting a war with Iran.
One thing that has become clear about Trump’s presidency is that his administration is always looking for a way to abuse power where they are not challenged.
It is common sense that if Trump becomes paranoid enough, he will use his powers as commander to attack other countries and potentially launch war.
Trump needs to be loved constantly, so it makes perfect sense for him to launch an attack abroad and expect Americans to gather around the flag.
All Catholic organizations need to blame Trump for his post. Donald Trump is sending all the signals. His administration has already shown that public pressure is working, and when enough people stand up and say no, he retreats.
The moment never leaves. Americans must be tireless when rebeling against Trump until Trump has the power to be taken away by Democrats who will win power in the midterm elections.
Trump is signaling people of faith. Now it’s time for their step up.
