The Pontiff strikes back.
Quote:Pope Leo has said he will continue to speak out against war despite Donald Trump's scathing attack overnight.
The US president said in a post to Truth Social that the pope was "WEAK on crime, and terrible for Foreign Policy".
"If I wasn't in the White House, Leo wouldn't be in the Vatican," he wrote.
Pope Leo told Reuters he didn't "want to get into a debate" with Trump.
"I don't think that the message of the Gospel is meant to be abused in the way that some people are doing," he said.
"I will continue to speak out loudly against war, looking to promote peace, promoting dialogue and multilateral relationships among the states to look for just solutions to problems," he said.
