In response to a personal attack by President Donald Trump the night before, Pope Leo told journalists on the papal plane to Algeria:

Check out video of Leo’s response … he calmly tells reporters he has “no fear of the Trump administration or speaking out loudly of the message of the Gospel, which is what I believe I am here to do, what the Church is here to do.”
Leo added he and his Catholic church cronies are not politicians and “don’t deal with foreign policy with the same perspective” as Trump. He went on to say he believes “in the message of the Gospel, as a peacemaker.”
As you know, Trump went scorched earth on Leo Sunday night, writing on Truth Social that the Pope is “WEAK on Crime, and terrible for Foreign Policy,” citing his liberal views. And that was only the beginning of his tirade … Trump’s message got a lot uglier from that point on.
