Flawlessly? Who writes this garbage?
As the pope wrapped up a press conference in Colombia on Sept. 10, he spoke about DACA – and how it doesn’t match up with Trump’s antiabortion views. “The President of the United States presents himself as pro-life and if he is a good pro-lifer, he understands that family is the cradle of life and its unity must be protected,” he said.
