Pope Leo, known as Pope Francis' hatchet man, is bad a**.

The Pope has more compassion and courage in his little left toe than Trump has mustered in a lifetime. In a match, I'm going with Southside Leo.

We have an EXTREMELY powerful and influential voice on our side.

With Pope Leo using his worldwide pulpit to influence our thinking and strengthen our faith, we could actually start turning the trends in a better direction. To benefit our precious ecosystem, and all the LEGIONS of creatures and kinds of life forms therein.

Signed,

One more lapsed Catholic who’s really starting to like this guy.
