Does anyone know if the Pope told Castro to hold ‘free and fair elections’ ??

Mr. Pope, TEAR DOWN THIS WALL!

The Vatican wall was first built in 852 A.D. to fend off Muslim attackers. It is guarded today with the elite Swiss Guards with all types of guns shown below:

Irregardless.

If Trump had any class at all he would he have simply said, "Well, that is his opinion."

But, Trump could not help himself.

Eleven million illegals and the Pope doesn’t think there’s enough bridges?

Gimme a break. Shame on the Pope.

We don’t need more bridges - we need big tall walls.

I’m for Cruz, but this was stupid of the Pope. Obvious hypocrisy.

I must say I am suspicious of the Catholic candidates influence on this: Rubio, Bush. Yes they came out and said the Pope was wrong. BUT, they may have been for appearances. It is just very strange because of the timing. Don’t get me wrong, I want Trump to lose. Just saying.

Trump is a low life thug. He will never get a vote from this conservative nor anyone else that I know.

The pope is a typical “social justice”, Latin American, Leftist ideologue.

And we’re importing so many Latin American voters that we’ll be on the typical Latin American, Marxist-authoritarian seesaw before too long.

Not only is it surrounded by walls,the Vatican has one of the most restrictive immigration, citizenship policies of any nation in world.

Until the Pope sells off the billions of dollars worth of treasures in the Vatican and helps the poor, takes down HIS walls and revises his immigration policy, he should SHUT HIS MOUTH AND TEND TO HIS BUSINESS.

When the Pope speaks out to interfere with American politics...it is an indication to me that the “Obama” “one world” “big brother” doctrine is alive & well within the halls of the Communist/Socialists of the world, the Vatican & the Pope included. If the Pope & Obama had their way America would be infused with illegall migrants, terrorists, drug dealers, slave runners & traders and tyrant dictators of all stripes!!! Freedom, Liberty, Opportunity, Individual exceptional performance would be squashed, and the masses of the world will become the peons and pawns of the Obamabot & Pope despots, etc.!!! Sad!!!

Voters in South Carolina....take massive heed to this biased verbal infraction uttered by a Roman Catholic Pope. I am a life long devout Roman Catholic who fervently disagees with any of the words Pope Francis uttered in his obvious hate for Donald Trump and the American Republic!!! I urge you all to consider your loss of freedom and destiny that both Obama & Pope Francis seek to bestow upon you. Just as Obama has enslaved African-Americans in economic & opportunity slavery...these evil people will render their ego driven, power, regimes upon all humanity.

I urge every voter in South Carolina to turn out tomorrow, and cast their votes for Donald J. Trump as both a sign & strong message that we, the American people will not accept interference in our internal politics by a religious fanatic outside of our country, such as the Roman Catholic Pope. Do not be fooled, this was a deeply thought out, planned action by Mexico, the Vatican an POTUS Barack Hussein Obama!!! Laugh and sneer, if you will, but heed this warning, and put it down right now with you vote for Trump...tomorrow, in the morning, in the afternoon and in the early evening.....DO IT!!! Vote for Donald J. Trump!!! GO DONALD TRUMP!!

Being one who thinks of all in regards to eternity, Trump was right in saying that the Pope has his own opinion. However, he could have added that the only opinion he was truly concerned about is that of the One before Whom both he and the Pope kneel and the opinion of the people for whom he is running for president.

If he couldn’t say either of these, then Houston, we have a problem.

You need to read the Pope's exact quote:

"POPE FRANCIS: Thank God he said I was a politician because Aristotle defined the human person as "animal politicus." So at least I am a human person. As to whether I am a pawn, well, maybe, I don't know. I'll leave that up to your judgment and that of the people. And then, a person who thinks only about building walls, wherever they may be, and not building bridges, is not Christian. This is not in the Gospel. As far as what you said about whether I would advise to vote or not to vote, I am not going to get involved in that. I say only that this man is not Christian if he has said things like that. We must see if he said things in that way and in this I give the benefit of the doubt."

Somehow I think this event of denouncing Trump was worked out with Obama and the Mexican government.

It would be hilarious if he says the vatican wall is 50 ft high! Our wall is only going to be 40 ft high!
