Krauthammer: Who Is Left for Trump To Go After? Only ‘the Big Guy Upstairs’

‘It’s not going to hurt him at all; in fact it might help him’

KRAUTHAMMER: "Well initially when I heard about it, I thought Trump was going to retort with a quote from corinthians. Ah, I couldn't help myself. A cheap shot but I'll take one." 
BAIER: "I like the other one. The two Corinthians walk into a bar --" 
KRAUTHAMMER: "The other thing is, Trump did sort of jump the shark on this and he reached for it. And you have to wonder, after everybody he has taken on, now he takes on the pope. Who is left? It's the big guy upstairs. Look, the reason I take this lightly is I don't think it be amounts to anything. What the Pope said was a general statement that any religious leader could say, 'If you only talk about walls and not bridges,' that's not good. He does this in a general way. Trump takes it as an attack on him. Cleverly, I think. This is a state, South Carolina, that is not that friendly to papists, and the pope is a papist, apparently. So this is a good play. But it is meaningless. It gives him a day in the news which is what he does brilliantly day after day. And it's not going to hurt him at all. In fact it might help him."
