The meeting between the pope and the president took place as the president's budget proposal was being released in the United States and a few hours before the CBO score of the newest version of the AHCA is expected.
Trump's budget, tax policy and healthcare proposals define him as a militantly anti-life president.  Trump's budget, tax and healthcare proposals violate his campaign promises and reflect his deep contempt for most of the people who voted for him. While it's true that the budget is Dead on Arrival, it's also true that this is a statement of Donald Trump's determination to hurt millions of people, to cause the deaths of many of them, in order to give tax breaks to the very wealthiest among us.
Surely no-one will continue to believe the lie that Donald Trump is a pro-life president or the preposterous notion that he cares about "ordinary" people.
