President Trump posting an image of himself as Pope. We aren't a serious country, and he's not a mentally well man.

Trump poses as the Pope in full holy garments and gets a pass.
Obama puts on a tan suit and they lose their frigging minds.

Donald Trump has disgraced the United States of America in countless ways since he first entered political life ten years ago.
