Pope Leo is weak on crim£ and t£rrible on foreign policy— Donald Trump slams Pope Leo XIV over Iran remarks

Former U.S. President Donald Trump has publicly criticised Pope Leo following remarks the pontiff made regarding tensions involving Iran.

Taking to his social media platform Truth Social, Trump expressed strong disapproval of the Pope’s stance, describing him as “Weak” on crime and “terrible” on foreign policy.

The post also reportedly included an AI-generated image depicting Trump in religious imagery, which has since drawn additional attention online.

The exchange follows recent comments attributed to Pope Leo, in which he reportedly criticised Trump’s warning that an “entire civilisation will die tonight,” referencing escalating tensions involving Iran. The Pope is also said to have described such rhetoric as “unacceptable,” while suggesting that a “delusion of omnipotence” is contributing to the ongoing conflict between the United States and Iran.

In his response, Trump stated that he does not “want a Pope who criticises the President of the United States,” underscoring the growing tension between the two figures.

He wrote: “Pope Leo is WEAK on Crime, and terrible for Foreign Policy. He talks about “fear” of the Trump Administration, but doesn’t mention the FEAR that the Catholic Church, and all other Christian Organizations, had during COVID when they were arresting priests, ministers, and everybody else, for holding Church Services, even when going outside, and being ten and even twenty feet apart. I like his brother Louis much better than I like him, because Louis is all MAGA. He gets it, and Leo doesn’t! I don’t want a Pope who thinks it’s OK for Iran to have a Nuclear Weapon. I don’t want a Pope who thinks it’s terrible that America attacked Venezuela, a Country that was sending massive amounts of Drugs into the United States and, even worse, emptying their prisons, including murderers, drug dealers, and killers, into our Country. And I don’t want a Pope who criticizes the President of the United States because I’m doing exactly what I was elected, IN A LANDSLIDE, to do, setting Record Low Numbers in Crime, and creating the Greatest Stock Market in History. Leo should be thankful because, as everyone knows, he was a shocking surprise. He wasn’t on any list to be Pope, and was only put there by the Church because he was an American, and they thought that would be the best way to deal with President Donald J. Trump. If I wasn’t in the White House, Leo wouldn’t be in the Vatican. Unfortunately, Leo’s Weak on Crime, Weak on Nuclear Weapons, does not sit well with me, nor does the fact that he meets with Obama Sympathizers like David Axelrod, a LOSER from the Left, who is one of those who wanted churchgoers and clerics to be arrested. Leo should get his act together as Pope, use Common Sense, stop catering to the Radical Left, and focus on being a Great Pope, not a Politician. It’s hurting him very badly and, more importantly, it’s hurting the Catholic Church! President DONALD J. TRUMP”
