Trump vs the Pope - Victor David Hanson

​

Victor Davis Hanson April 14, 2026

In this debate between Trump and the Pope Trump is entirely right. All of the pundits and talking heads get all befuddled because they feel obligated to respect the Pope. Trump said the bare knuckle truth in a simple straightforward way. He may not of explained it very thoroughly in the soundbites we hear, but it was right on.

         Trump said he has Jesus he doesn't need the Pope. 

         The Catholics give the Pope authority that doesn't really belong to Him. They verge on worship to the Pope and Mary and others, and no man is worthy of worship only the Lord. Only the Lord is worthy of worship. Trump called out the truth that everyone inwardly knows. The Pope is just a man with opinions about the war. 

     The problem with the Pope is he is a pervayor of false compassion. This belief comes from the Christian ethic, but it is a false belief, used as a trick of the evil. It is false because compassion is only truly compassion if it is in union with wisdom. Compassion without discernment is blanket compassion. This is the unerlying fallacy of all liberal thinking. The Pope thinks Trump is wrong because there is 'a better way than war.' But the Pope is wrong. Trump has done everything possible to avoid war.  Trump is dealing with a regime that has a religious ideology to rule the world, and  an apocalyptic beleif in its righteous mission.

      The Pope is in a religious fantasy world, Trump is acting from real love and wisdom, from love to the people and obedience to God.
