U.S. Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump is "not Christian" because of his views on immigration, Pope Francis said on his way back to Rome from Mexico.

You mean to tell me that the pope is NOT infallible...Looks like those vatican walls are made of glass. The pope should think twice about throwing stones.

How many refugee tent-cities have been set up inside the Vatican.

Hint: it is a number that you are not allowed to use in the denominator of a fraction.

There’s not a word in the gospels about “building bridges,” either.

The Pope is a conventional Lefty, in addition to be thoughtless and shallow, and also not knowing his job.

I guess that’s why we should have stuck to Italians for Popes: they tended to stick to the spiritual stuff and avoided border disputes.

The pope just wants to flood America with millions of (nominally) Catholic illegals.

You want immigrants in this country, Frank, then hand over some of that Vatican gold to pay for it.

Lead by example Francis... tear down the walls around Vatican City, remove all the guards, fences, gates locks and security system. Overturn all the laws you have on immigration, residency and citizenship to Vatican City, and enact an open border law with no barriers. THEN you can have non hypocritical stance to blather your globist communist views.

Foxnews is reporting Trump is calling the Pope “pathetic”.

I call Foxnews attempts, at Rupert Murdock’s bidding, to bring down Trump “pathetic”.

Catholic prelates in this country need to issue a joint letter to the Vatican telling it to stay out of our elections.
