"People are going to be thrilled to hear the pope speak in their language with an American accent," [David] Fink [a professor of religion at Furman University] said.

Me too.
He’s a self proclaimed commie, Jim.
“ He’s a self proclaimed commie, Jim.”
Your evidence for this is what?
There are not a lot of homeless illegals even near the Vatican.
At the moment, I have to go with “scrubbed”.
Leo needs to prove he isn’t....
Robert F. Kennedy was once on the other side. Now he’s a loyal MAGA / MAHA champion.
Think of the possibilities that this Pope may help us more than hurt is. I think that’s what Trump and company are trying to set up...
Good luck to them. All I’ve read about this pope says he’s in favor of illegals flooding our country.
The hell they will when he tells the fornication, contraception, remarriage, and abortion are mortal sins!
The thrill is going to depend on what he says not his accent.
Actually, he has said countries have the right to enforce their immigration laws.
“I think that’s what Trump and company are trying to set up...“
Team Trump can do nothing in this. It seems one of the reasons they picked this guy was he is anti Trump.
However, not so thrilled when popes speak and push heresies, regardless of dialect or accent...
| You are both probably right. He may indeed become anti-Trump. But ANY softening of Frankie's destructive policies is welcome. Remember, too, that Italians elected Giorgia Meloni, a Trump champion. Maybe Giorgia can somewhat influence the Papa. And though Frankie was key to enabling Leo to gain the papacy, Leo may decide to become his own man, and not always play the European Union playbook.

It’s what he actually says that counts.....
That’s right. He’ half black or something with connections to Nawlins. Boy, “history” bein’ made all over da place. We gonna need to suck up dem history books.
How do “self proclaimed“ and “needs to prove he isn’t” go together? This combo reminds me of some of the accusations against conservatives made without evidence.
Who cares about his accent?
If that’s an issue, the Papacy has ceased to have meaning....
