Pope on a Rope
The Messiah of Mar-a-Lago is just a sin-tarnished demented dope,
Whose attempts to co-opt religion led him down a slippery slope.
So he picks stupid fights with the Vatican,
Because he thinks he’s a Medieval king who can
Appoint his own alternative, MAGA-aligned Mar-a-Lago pope.
Franklin Graham Didn’t See No Halo
“When I looked at the illustration, I didn’t jump to the same conclusion as some. There were no spiritual references — no halo, there were no crosses, no angels. It was a flag, soldiers, a nurse, fighter planes, eagles, the Statue of Liberty, and I think this is a lot to do about nothing.”

The year-over-year gains was the biggest in more than three years. Energy prices surged 8.5% from February.”
His Mistaken Identity
Trump depicting himself as Jesus is a sign of our broken zeitgeist,
At the same time, his picking a fight with Pope Leo just isn’t nice.
But we can see how the president got confused,
See, Donald Trump has grown quite used
To people exclaiming — following his words or deeds — “Jesus Christ!”
