Real estate mogul warns Pope Francis on ISIS

The Pope, I hope, can only be scared by God. But the truth is, if you look at what's going on they better hope that capitalism works, because it's the only thing we have right now, and it's a great thing when it works properly." Trump said

 

In an interview with with CNN's Chris Cuomo, Donald Trump mentioned that if he meets Pope Francis during his visit to USA he would tell the Pontiff that ISIS wants to take Vatican city.

When asked what he would say if the Pope mentioned that capitalism could be toxic,"I'd say, 'ISIS wants to get you,'" Trump replied.

The real estate mogul continued: "You know that ISIS wants to go in and take over the Vatican? You have heard that. You know, that's a dream of theirs, to go into Italy."

"I'm gonna have to scare the Pope because it's the only thing. The Pope, I hope, can only be scared by God. But the truth is, if you look at what's going on they better hope that capitalism works, because it's the only thing we have right now, and it's a great thing when it works properly." Trump said

There have been no indications of planned attack since the militant group used photoshop to lift it's flag above St. Peter's Square.

The real estate mogul said that though he is a Protestant, he generally likes Pope Francis, who has been outspoken on a number of politically sensitive issues including poverty, climate change and judging gays, but he is ready to protect his views, even if it means instilling fear in the pontiff.
