More than meets the eye? The Trump - Pope fued?

Well.

Apparently, Trump distrusts both his Vice President and his Secretary of State, according to a Trump Tea-Leaf reader.  This is quite possible, because Trump is facing impeachment, after the Mid-Terms, at the latest, and possibly earlier.  When he is forced out of the presidency, he doesn't want Rubio or Vance salivating after his job.  (Now that they've seen how the grifting is carried out, they're probably certain that they can do it with more class.  Anyone could, honestly, given how stupid Trump is.)  Apparently one of those two must cooperate with the impeachment. 

Anyhoo, Trump's attack on the Pope is, I hear, in fact an attack on Vance by Trump.  Trump wants to get Vance mired in religious arguments with the Pope, so that he'll be discredited.  Sounds far- fetched, but this is Trump trying to be clever.  (He confuses cleverness with deviousness, which sort of works with finagling crooked financial deals.  Hard to believe Trump screwed up the Federal government to this extent mainly to skim off these enormous chunks of wealth into the vaults of his family.  But it does look that way.)

Kash Patel, meanwhile, has indulged in some baffling excesses: heavy drinking, abuse of the security detail attached to him, profligate spending on his girlfriend, and so on.  This is going on so much that he (Kash) must suspect the end is nigh.

RFK Jr. is merely a distraction.  A bad distraction, because he harms the health of masses of gullible people, but still a distraction. 

Judging from the level of anti-trump posting that's coming into my feed, everybody is getting more angry, but that's not to say that trump- removal is actually imminent.  Interesting: lots of former MAGA voters are coming out as furiously anti-trump.  Probably not going to help us liberals/Democrats very much.

The former trump insider who dropped this insight into the trump/pope wars is Anthony Scaramucci, whom some people will never trust again, but he knows how Trump thinks, I'm willing to bet.
