Except for that massive wide-open piazza right outside the front door of St.Peters Basilica.

In other words - Bullshit.

This will help him with some of these hillbillies who see the Pope as the anti-Christ.

Yes, but there are beautiful doors. Almost Trumpian in stature.

All that means is that the Vatican believes in historic preservation, unlike Drumpf who tears down significant historical structures to build gaudy new-money phallic symbols.

Note to Catholic church: you can’t win this argument, Trump is right, the Vatican IS surrounded by a giant wall…if Catholics were true Christians, per their pope they would tear down the wall right?

Nope. There is no wall in that area. It is inside the line of where the wall might be if it existed. If you asked me to fence your property, and I only covered 3 of 4 sides, you wouldn’t consider the property “fenced off”.

Isn’t “Scavino” Italian slang for “dumb motherfucker”? “Hey, you big scavino!”

In the last presidential election, nearly half of Catholics voted for the Republican candidate (60% if you don’t include Hispanic Catholics). You’re picking a fight with the wrong demographic, Trump.

Right, Donald. Get into a pissing match with the POPE OF THE CATHOLIC CHURCH and see how that helps you with Latino/a outreach.

Fucking moronic. But, please proceed, TheDonald!

Yes. But, as I recall, most of the Vatican still is off-limits from St. Peters. You can only visit the museums and the Sistine Chapel. The rest is walled off.

I think the Donald Trump campaign makes an excellent irrefutable, factual point about the walls around the Vatican. Great comeback and put down. Wish I’d thought of this.

This is the latest Trump equivalent of shooting someone in the face on Fifth Avenue, but sooner or later the person shot will be himself.

Francis, tear down this wall!

Yes you are right. you can also visit the Vatican Gardens, all of these accessed through the Museum entrance. My point is that comparing it to a typical border wall ( although it actually is one) is wrong.
