Can’t believe this is one of the last people the pope saw.
Imagine being the fucking pope and a man who converted to catholicism not even a decade ago is arguing with you about catholic doctrine and you have to put up with it as you're actively dying because hes the vice president of the united states.
I swear Francis should've sent him a nun to explain grade school doctrine with a ruler until he got it
Anybody gonna tell him that the humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza is big part thanks to his admin sending enormous aid packages to Israel? And what pains me the most is redirection of tens of thousands of AA rockets meant for Ukraine.
Ok cool, Trump, but what about those Epstein files?
He's a narcissist. The only reason Trump ever helps anyone else is for personal praise. He doesn't give a shit about Gazans. He cares about his own ego.
Narcissicracy
If he's responsible for the thanks, he's responsible for the criticism, too. If he wants thanks for them being fed, he deserves a serve for every baby that's died. Scum.
"And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full."
it's not even his own money, is it?
Let's line up all the starving people who are being genocided and shot at aid stations so they can each give him a kiss on the ass for all the good he's done for them. What a pig.
It's your obligation as a member of the UN
Well, when you tape the money to Israeli bombs and bullets for the delivery mechanism I think Gaza might be less enthusiastic about it.
I'd rather have well fed Palestinians than a thank you
