MAGA Meltdown: Pope’s Progressive Stance Sparks Fury
The election of Robert Prevost as Pope Leo XIV has sparked outrage among right-wing media figures and MAGA supporters. Prevost’s past criticism of Vice President JD Vance, his expressed sympathy for immigrants and George Floyd, and his progressive views have been cited as reasons for this backlash. Prominent conservatives, including Steve Bannon, have voiced concerns about Prevost’s suitability for the papacy, highlighting his perceived “woke” ideology. This controversy underscores a significant division within the American political landscape, even extending to the selection of a religious leader. Despite the criticism, President Trump offered his congratulations to the newly elected Pope.
