Trump cites Iran protests in warning to Pope

U.S. President Donald Trump has escalated his public feud with Pope Leo XIV, accusing Christian Zionists of being on a crusade against the Vatican. In his latest remarks, Trump directly addressed the Pope, stating, "The Pope has to understand: Iran killed 42,000 protesters, and they cannot have a nuclear weapon." This statement ties Trump's nuclear non-proliferation stance on Iran to the regime's domestic crackdown on dissent. The comments further inflame tensions between the Trump administration and the Vatican over U.S. foreign policy.
