Pope Leo XIV calls for peace over Iran. MAGA shits themselves in response.

Pope Leo XIV called for diplomacy and restraint amid escalating violence in Iran, but not everyone was happy to hear it.

In a post on X on March 1, 2026, the pontiff urged leaders to halt the “spiral of violence” and pursue peace through dialogue.

But many MAGA supporters and pro-Trump commentators reacted angrily, accusing the Pope of meddling in politics and telling him to “stay in your lane.”

The Pope calls for diplomacy over Iran conflict

The Pope tweeted, “I am following with deep concern what is happening in the Middle East and in Iran during this tumultuous time.”

When religious leaders aligned with MAGA morons do the same.
