Catholic MAGA Voter Unloads On Trump's 'Colossally Stupid' Feud With Pope Leo In Viral Rant
But Pazmino found that even those who self-identified as MAGA were fed up with the POTUS's attacks on the first Pope from the United States.
When asked for her thoughts on Trump's criticism of the Pontiff, Anita Bauman told Pazmino:
"I don’t think it helps the President at all. I think it’s colossally stupid."
You can see a clip of her comments here:
Not mincing her words, Bauman added:
"And I say that as a Catholic and as a person who voted for Trump. But I think that it’s just not the battle to pick."
Bauman wasn't opposed to some form of interference with the government of Iran, seemingly ignoring the deaths of innocents like at the girls school bombed by the Trump administration.
But Bauman concluded:
"I don’t think picking a fight with the Pope or trying to school the Pope on theology is a good idea at all."

People concurred with Bauman's assessment, although many pointed out she got what she voted for.

A March poll by NBC News, released just before Trump's Truth Social rant about the Pontiff and the POTUS's infamous AI Trump as Jesus post, found Pope Leo XIV enjoys a +34 favorability rating among voters in the United States while Trump has a –12 favorability.
A Pew Research poll found Pope Leo has an 84% approval rating amongst American Catholics while a variety of recent polls reported Trump's approval rating with American voters overall hovering around just 40%.
Whoever thought now was the time to try to pick a fight with the Pontiff seems, as Anita Bauman put it, "colossally stupid."

Trump Just Gloated About His Intellect With A Truly Narcissistic Description Of Himself—And Critics Pounced
With Democrats already favored to take control of the House in November, the outcome in Virginia strengthens their position and could encourage the party to pursue more aggressive redistricting efforts in other traditionally Republican-leaning areas.
Trump has previously backed successful GOP-led redistricting efforts in North Carolina and Texas, where lawmakers redrew congressional maps to benefit Republicans. Those moves helped bolster the party’s razor-thin majority in the House.
Without citing any evidence, Trump claimed in a post on Truth Social that "the Democrats eked out another Crooked Victory!" He questioned the will of the people and urged federal courts to "fix this travesty of 'Justice.'"
He wrote:
"A RIGGED ELECTION TOOK PLACE LAST NIGHT IN THE GREAT COMMONWEALTH OF VIRGINIA! All day long Republicans were winning, the Spirit was unbelievable, until the very end when, of course, there was a massive “Mail In Ballot Drop!” Where have I heard that before — And the Democrats eked out another Crooked Victory!"
"Six to five goes to ten to one, and yet the Presidential Election in November was very close to a 50-50 split. In addition to everything else, the language on the Referendum was purposefully unintelligible and deceptive."
But it was this last bit that really got people talking:
"As everyone knows, I am an extraordinarily brilliant person, and even I had no idea what the hell they were talking about in the Referendum, and neither do they! Let’s see if the Courts will fix this travesty of “Justice.”

Trump's latest narcissistic display did not go over well; considering how embroiled in scandal he is on a daily basis, he's shown he's anything but the "extraordinarily brilliant person" he claims to be.
Trump's narcissism has been through the roof in recent days. Earlier this week, he was super proud of himself after he signed an executive order to make certain psychedelic drugs more available to treat mental health conditions, taking an opportunity to boast about his own signature.
Signing his name, Trump marveled at his own signature and took another opportunity to mock his predecessor, former President Joe Biden:
"Oh, that's a good one. Look at that, Joe. Do you think Biden can do that?"
Everyone around him laughed and applauded.
Last week, he had people rolling their eyes after he told Fox News host Maria Bartiromo that he originally considered renaming the Gulf of Mexico the "Gulf of Trump" but ultimately decided against it because "I thought, 'You know, that's not going to play too well.'"
