In a speech delivered at the Vatican just three days before the U.S. presidential election, Pope Francis urged social justice activists from around the world not to give into the politics of fear by building walls but instead work to build bridges.
“Because fear—as well as being a good deal for the merchants of arms and death—weakens and destabilizes us, destroys our psychological and spiritual defenses, numbs us to the suffering of others,” he said.
“In the end,” he continued, “it makes us cruel.”

Poop on Trump – the Vatican version of “Dump Trump”.
How is the blind European liberalism working for you, father?
mr trump, be careful. it’s very possible that this story is deliberately coming out now in order to “bait” you into responding negatively about the pope. don’t fall for it and my advice would be to ignore it and by tomorrow it will be “old news”. we have 2 more days to go. stay focused and with G-d’s help you will no longer be MR trump, but rather PRESIDENT Trump!
iodicity.
Hillary and the DNC attack Catholicism and all Catholic values. and this crazy pontiff wants her in charge?
commie pope.
clear proof that when one is a communist, that Trumps all other value systems.
(if Catholics have anything like impeachment, they aught to be blowing the dust off of the appropriate procedures )
Yes #2, all his supporters are holding their breath hoping he can hold his tongue. Having to do that though just further proves how unfit this adulterer, liar and sleaze is.
The pope is just the right person to tell us what makes us cruel…
Of course he prefers Clinton, because she, like Bush and Obama, is ready to go along with his devilish plan and evil agenda of the Illuminati and the New World Order. Don’t expect MSMPL to talk about this.
People, wake up and see what’s happening in the world. Go online NOW and read up as much as possible about it before they get the devil in.
#4 Even assuming Trump is an “adulterer, liar and sleaze” which is a lie and you know it, it still doesn’t reach Hillary’s corruption revealed by WikiLeaks and HER EMAILS.

Let the distribution of funds start at the Vatican
Gay rights and abortion has no role by Catholics?
could ywn kick this nutjob Arye off the comments section please? He’s getting really annoying.
I guess the crusades weren’t cruel. He should go back to his boyfriends and stop making divine statements.
Arye, do you know who Marla Maples is?
This pope is a progressive leftist out of Argentina, who despises capitalism and adores socialism.
Hey pontiff, put your Vatican Square where your mouth is. Bring in 3,000 migrants and let them camp out there, big shot. Don’t worry, the Swiss Guards will keep order.
Gut yontif, pontiff

I wouldn’t waste time responding….these Trumkopfs live in an alternative reality where you can present them with a video of Trump saying A and they will simply deny it without a thought. His campaign manager is probably the best ever in pivoting from a question to some Hillary issue without pause over and over until the reporter simply gives up. On Wednesday, I’m more worried about Arye and his ilk doing harm to themselves out of desperation and despair. Hopefully, there will be public health hotlines for people to call for assistance. I really feel sorry for them because they have legitimate issues that should have been addressed in this campaign and instead we are focused on her emails and his pritzus.
