Last week, Donald Trump presum- ably attacked the Pope after the latter made comments regarding whether Trump should actually be considered Christian. This week Trump caused a stir on social media by stating that Up- state New York’s love for him was huge.
Regarding the Pope, the battle of words all started after the Pope said that Trump cannot be Christian if he wants to tear down bridges instead of build- ing new ones. This comment was in re- lation to the remarks that Trump had been making during his political cam- paign for presidency regarding the bor- ders of Mexico and the U.S. Trump, who has said that he wants to build a wall to keep Mexicans out, responded to the Pope by stating that when ISIS attacks the Vatican the Pope will have wished that he was president.
I think Trump gained a loss on this one. Many people in the U.S. who are religious happen to be Christian and Trump has just crossed a line with those people. The Pope, who was simply an- swering a question to the degree he thought best as a religious figure, was berated by Trump for suggesting that he wasn’t Christian.
I don’t think there is a religion that Trump’s ideas would even be able to categorize in other than obnoxious and outrageous. The things that he attacks people on are so belittling, yet he still gains voters.
Trump may have just loss some voters due to the fact that he attacked a promi- nent religious figure who some believe is the closest living human to God and still Trump did not think of that before he made controversial remarks regarding the Pope.
As far as Trump believing that he is greatly loved in Upstate New York, I think he might be over-confident in that area. My Facebook newsfeed blew up with hilarious remarks regarding the fact that Trump thinks this. I agree that there are those, who live in this state that show their growing love for Trump, but overall
my newsfeed was the exact opposite. There would be some who would say that Trump is a disgrace as a Repub- lican and do not love him. I count as someone who lives in Upstate New York and I in no way love Trump.
This week has been so ridiculous with Trump’s remarks and it still con- tinues on. He’s talked back to the Pope and he’s inflated his ego with this idea that he’s loved so much in Upstate New York, what is next? This will only get more interesting as people wait to see what ridiculous remarks Trump continues to make.

I can’t agree with him. But above all, he ‘s still a great man.
