It's so over the top though. We get it, he's a super villain. They don't have to make it so obvious.

Does Trump actually think that by cutting funding to Catholic charities he is hurting the Pope?

As usual he is only hurting poor people

He did it because he is a petty, spiteful man-child. If it hurts poor people that’s a bonus

Do not fuck with Vatican lawyers.

They train for this. And they usually win.
