Dem Rep. Gabe Amo: Trump’s Feud with the Pope ‘Demonstrates His Lack of Fitness for the Office’
EXCERPT:
AMO: "Well, look, this is characteristic of Donald Trump. This demonstrates his lack of fitness for the office. Look, he views himself as the divine. But I think that what we‘ve seen in the follow-up, both from sort of rank-and-file members of Congress, my constituents, and hopefully my Republican colleagues who tend to use faith as a weapon. I hope they see that this isn‘t only blasphemous and immoral, but this shows that Donald Trump cannot execute the high role and responsibility of the presidency. Look, as a Catholic, you know, as someone who has sat in mass contemplating the importance of my connection to faith, I just see this as another example of why we need to pray for my Republican colleagues to get some backbone to stop Donald Trump from the nonsense that we‘ve seen, because it‘s not only hurting us, you know, when he posts a meme, it‘s hurting the economic livelihoods of people. Cruel, cutting health care, but yet saying that he‘s portraying a doctor, that doesn‘t make sense. And that‘s something that we just need to put a stop on. These heinous actions from this administration to hurt the American people at the gas pump, at the doctor‘s office and at the grocery store just have to stop. And that‘s not something a person of faith does."
