Why, Yes, Megyn Kelly Will Kick a Dead Pope

As you’re no doubt aware, Pope Francis decided living kind of sucks, actually, after spending a few moments with JD Vance. And that may sound like a snarky exaggeration, but it’s literally what happened. After rebuffing Vance earlier in the weekend and sending his second-in-command to lecture the vice president on compassion (a.k.a. not sending people to an El Salvador gulag), his holiness caved and agreed to a brief face-to-face meeting with Vance. That encounter was enough for the pope’s body to say, “Welp, that’s enough of this hellscape,” and he shuffled off.

While social media had an absolute field day with JD making a huge deal out of his Catholic conversion only to be forever known as the guy who killed the Pope, Megyn Kelly went the opposite direction and decided to immediately set up a Whiz Palace on ol’ Frank’s grave. Donald Trump didn’t even piss on John McCain this quickly.

Despite being a Catholic, Megyn does not defer to God’s holy vessel when it comes to immigration, and frankly, she thinks she could’ve brought him around to Trump’s policies. I don’t know about you, but that’s probably the most insulting thing you could ever say about a person. If somebody starts telling people I could be persuaded by Donald Trump, I will show up at their house.

Via The Daily Beast:

She voiced her confusion as to how Pope Francis could “so misunderstand” Trump and the reason why he is “so devoted to getting rid of these people who Pope Francis just looked at as vulnerable and defenseless.”

“Well you know who is vulnerable and defenseless?” Kelly asked her viewers. “Laken Riley.”

The former Fox News anchor wished she could’ve talked to the pontiff about immigration while he was alive.

“I’m sure he would’ve had nothing but empathy for those killed by these illegals,” she said.

I’m going to take a shot in the dark here and assume the Pope had access to the news. More importantly, he seemed to be a pretty logical guy (minus the whole supernatural stuff), and he’d probably note that we’re not deporting large swaths of white people after they kill somebody. Not to mention there are more humane ways to tackle this subject that don’t involve snatching innocent dudes off the street and causing a constitutional crisis by refusing to fix your mistake. The Catholic Church knows a thing or two about making situations worse. Trust me on this one.

Of course, Megyn wasn’t the only Republican white lady to flood the basement over Pope Francis kicking the bucket. Marjorie Taylor Greene wasted no time spiking the football. Despite having a lot of overlap in beliefs and joining hands to put Trump into office twice, I cannot stress how much evangelicals think they’re better than Catholics. They talk so much sh*t behind their backs and flat-out call Catholicism a false religion.

Because she’s a special kind of crazy, here’s Marjorie declaring that the Pope was smote by God for his wickedness. That wickedness? Preaching compassion for others, which everyone knows Jesus hated. That guy was about two things and two things only: Cash money and never once helping your neighbor. If guns were invented back then, he would have told people to buy 40 of them.
