    2. Cruelly rounding up people and sending them to foreign death camps? Totally fine.

      Cosplaying as Pope? An unforgivable sin!

    3. Good_kido78 on

      Trump doesn’t care about the constitution. Even if this is a joke, it is in terribly poor taste for a president. He has no class or ethics.

    4. Eat_the_Rich1789 on

      I mean he is already celibate, Melania won’t touch him with a flamethrower

    5. invalidpassword on

      Trump’s been listening to Vance and Margie Greene too much. Anything that makes Trump look bad is a good thing.

    6. NinjaLanternShark on

      Sorry, no „MAGA“ did not „melt down“ over this. A few people tweeted their mild concern. That’s it. It’s been demonstrated over and over — there is no bottom. He is, ironically given his situation, infallible in their eyes.

      > Shows poor judgement,” tweeted X user Juan Santana. “Would you do a similar joke with other religions’ leaders?

      You’re joking right? He would absolutely insult any one and any religion at any moment. There’s no red line.

    7. voyagerdoge on

      The ‚melts down‘ line has had its time. Come up with something fresh!

      there is a german folk/fairytale that is originally written in a northern german dialect „vom fischer und seiner frau“ (about the fisherman and his wife) where a fisherman catches a big flounder (who’s an enchanted prince or something) who pleads for being left alive. the fisherman is a gentle person and let’s the flounder go.

      his wife on the other hand is a greedy bastard, and when he tells her about the flounder she scolds him for not asking anything in return. she sends him back to ask the fish for a free wish, since they’re living in a „pisspot“ (literally pisspot (chamber pot)). so the husband reluctantly goes back, calls the flounder and is granted a better house.

      but his wife is never satisfied. she keeps asking for more and more. she becomes king, then emperor, then demands to become pope. the flounder fulfills the wishes but is palpably getting angrier, so is the sea.

      finally the wife demands to become god. that’s where the flounder draws the line. and he tells the fisherman to go home to his wife who is already back in the pisspot.

      i know ya’ll didn’t really need to know this fairytale, but that AI picture immediately reminded me of this and i can’t wait for having trump back in his pisspot where he belongs.

      You know those little antiabortion signs you see in all the Catholic’s yards? I want to get some that say Donald Trump for Pope. Put them out, and wait for the reactions on Nextdoor.com.

    10. Magnusthedane on

      This is a defining moment. He has gotten away with so much and his “god loving” supporters, who deep down know that they made a terrible mistake, finally get a way out. He insulted the Catholic Church. Unforgivable. It gives plenty of people a reason to break away and leave the cult without losing face.

      And yes, I know, there is a lot of wishful thinking in my comment

      > “It’s a joke. It is not even an offensive joke, and I’m Catholic.”

      Sweetie, you are not a catholic or even a christian if you support the Antichrist and let him pose as your supreme religious authority.

    12. TrailerParkFrench on

      The Daily Beast again reporting bullshit. 100% would vote for him again. He’s trying to distract people from his efforts to expand his powers and destroy institutions that hold him responsible.

    13. ScotchCigarsEspresso on

      You had to figure thay something would break through their thick skulls eventually.

      So, im good with whatever gets in there.

    14. The day before i said something to a fmily member along the lines of jd vance may have done something to the pope, and he said i was being disrespectful . Then drumpf posted a hold my beer jd. So I asked „was that being disrespectful.?“ „Idk“

    15. ~2 Thessalonians 2:4 – „Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.“

    16. SpicyButterBoy on

      The post from Trump is quite literally blasphemous antichrist stuff, but his base eats it up. Not only that, but because it was tweeted from the official White House account, the post will be documented in the library of Congress in perpetuity. We will use our tax payer dollars to keep that fucking AI image in our records. 

      MAGA is a fascist cult without morals or reasoning skills. The only difference between Trump and James Jones is that Trump would sell you the koolaid instead of gifting it.

      Four years of maga melts down headlines

      Hope the editors find other ways to write the same headline. Same goes for x SLAMS y 😂

    18. CardinalOfNYC on

      Literally this is the second MAGA melts down headline I’ve seen in the span of 7 days.

      I hate trump but something tells me maga hasn’t actually melted down and instead this article is just ragebait for our side.

    19. Next week he’ll just claim Joe Biden hacked his account and posted the image and they will believe him.

    20. AdHopeful3801 on

      Bets on how long it takes them to get over it and come up with a reason this is totally okay?

      My dollar says they’ll have this normalized by Friday.

    21. snarquisnarquer on

      For a long time to come, political, psychological, sociological scholars will write about, and try to decipher exactly how the fuque so many people could have ever been duped by this ridiculous clown.

    22. LovesFrenchLove_More on

      Of all the hateful stuff and anti-christian shit he‘s done THAT is where they draw the line???

    23. goregeousgore on

      I hate titles like „maga melts down“. Magas don’t give a shit what trump does, they’ll eat out of his hands no matter what.

    24. SoftlockPuzzleBox on

      Once again petitioning to stop using the phrase „melts down.“ It is near universally hyperbolic and, in my eyes, immediately delegitimizes whatever is being discussed.
