MAGA Bishop Demands Trump Apologize to the Pope

A MAGA-friendly Catholic bishop on Donald Trump’s Religious Liberty Commission has demanded that the 79-year-old president apologize for his attack on Pope Leo XIV.

Trump is under fire on all sides after posting an unhinged screed targeting the pontiff on Sunday and telling the leader of the Catholic Church to “get his act together,” before depicting himself as Jesus.

Bishop Robert Barron of the Diocese of Winona-Rochester in Minnesota has shown strong MAGA sensibilities since Trump returned to power last year, often parroting far-right talking points, praising Trump’s State of the Union speech, and attending a White House event earlier this month where the president was compared to Christ.
