I’m sorry, this season has been SO BORING so far. As soon as a tribe loses, you know who is going home. WHERE IS THE GAMEPLAY?!?!? Hopefully post-merge is more exciting. #Survivor

Oh wow.
Note: This response (below, which is real) to Trump’s tweet depicting himself as pope is from the New York State Catholic Bishops, who represent the collective bishops of the state.
Among them is Cardinal Dolan of NYC, who Trump appointed to his new religious liberty commission this week.

For me, Pope Francis was a shining example of what a Catholic should be. I will miss the leadership he gave to the Catholic Church.
