The silence from Vance and Trump isn’t surprising at all considering both of these disingenuous liars use religion as a prop to convey their twisted relationship with their “god”, and what he demands of us with regard to tolerance and empathy.

I’m glad they are staying silent, because I’m honestly afraid of what they would say.

Good point, especially after what trump wrote after the death of one of our finest public servants Special Counsel Mueller. I had not thought of that concern.

Trump ? Vance ? Pray for Pope Leo ? What's the surprise?! Since when did devils start praying for saints ?!?!

As for me, an American Protestant clergyman: my earnest prayers are for Pope Leo and his surgical and medical attendants.

I love Pope Leo and he's in my prayers every day. I feel God gave him to us at this time in our country's needs.

I wonder if Those two people in the White house have planned where to put their billions when they die. In the coffin with them??Don't they know they can't take all that gold and billions stuffed in the coffin with them ? Ashes to Ashes!!

Trump most likely does not pray.

Actually, this does not surprise me in the least. Trump is now a collaborator with Opus Dei and JD Vance is a member of Opus Dei, as are dozens of White House staff members. Kevin Roberts, Russell Vought, former AG Bill Barr, former White House counsel Pat Cipillone, Mick Mulvanney and many more are all Opus Dei adjacent and running the Trump clown show.

Opus Dei believes with another collaborator of theirs, Peter Thiel, that Pope Leo is the Antichrist because he opposes them and because the Vatican (under Pope Francis) has stripped Opus Dei of its personal prelature status, ordered them to revise their constitution and opposes their insistence on celebrating the Tridentine Latin Mass. This is why both Trump and JD Vance have been issuing extremely threatening messages to Pope Leo. If Opus Dei gets their way, they’ll ordain their own bishops (which they and the recently excommunicated Society of Pope Pius X were expressly forbidden to do) and go into direct competition with the church in Rome. Watch them take us back to Avignon all over again.

As the Pope loves all humanity, so should all humanity love Leo XIV. Prayer his way via D.H.L.

I do wish trump, vance, and netanyahu would listen to the good Pope.

Shame on both Trump and Vance, especially Vance who reportedly converted to Catholicism recently. How difficult is it to have empathy and concern for the Holy Father as he undergoes surgery to remove a nodule on his lung? You two are pathetic.

It doesn’t surprise me in the least that Trump nor Vance haven’t sent any well wishes to the Holy Father. They are boorish vulgarians who don’t have a virtuous bone in their body.
