Just when you think “it’s beyond the pale” has reached its limit…. But wait, there’s more!


I'm veerrryyy temped to send this to my parents who are dedicated Catholics and also voted for Trump. Their buy-in to his lies has been really disheartening.



Leave your parents alone. They probably think you take yourself too seriously.


Yes. Catholics that vote for Trump don't seriously think that he cares about abortion or the pope or the Bible. They know he does not and that he uses these issues to get votes and sells the Bibles to get money. And they don't care about his sinning and sacrilege.

I think your Catholic parents would prefer a text that you love them and appreciate them... or you're headed to Mass, or getting married, or having kids.

Hey maga sycophants, please please please give us your spin on this one.


He’s just joking! Just joking around with people’s faith. /s


I'm not a MAGA sycophant, but I did vote for Trump. I am neither evangelical Christian, nor Catholic. I am Christian.

I think that this should not have been posted by Trump. I know a lot of Catholics--my guess is this will bother a lot of them, and others, not so much.

I find it in poor taste--but I find a lot of things Trump does in poor taste. I think a lot of things that Biden did were in poor taste, Clinton, etc.

I don't believe it is sacrilegious. But, I am not Catholic.


You’re a good sheep. When he posts a picture of himself as Jesus Christ, I’m sure you’ll wag your finger some more, but go along with all this.

When he makes a mockery of one religion, he makes a mockery of all religions. So whether you're Catholic or not this is offensive.


Exactly. I'll even add, whether you're religious or not, this is offensive. I'm not religious AT ALL. Like zero. And I find this atrocious. Because it objectively is. There is literally no excuse for this.

Just trying to dunk on Biden, probably. You’d think JD would be offended too but I think he’s walking back his Catholic identity already.


There's a conservative part of the Catholic church in America that identifies more with evangelical Christians in their political worldviews. Basically, Christian nationalism will expand to include these Catholics, unlike 100 years ago when they would have been targets of Christian nationalist harassment/persecution.



Eh, evangelicals still hate them, whether they agree politically or not. Ex: MTG

I think Trump is embracing the whole Pope thing to "be funny" and also his team and Republicans distract from Trump calling for Democrats to be expelled from Congress.

You can’t respond without “whataboutism”. Suggest you pray on that. Sometimes something is just awful and you have to call a spade a spade.

That’s what these conservative Catholics think, but the hatred runs very deep. They’re going to learn that the hard way what the Protestants think of them and honestly, I’m gonna love every second of it.

Please do. It should be in every newspaper and on every TV channel, but probably won’t be.
