American pope's critiques of Trump hold weight, priest says

Season 2026 Episode 79 | 8m 36s

The battle between the president and the pope continues to play out. Pope Leo has not backed down from his criticisms of the war in Iran, but he is taking a different approach during his visit to Africa. Some allies of President Trump are also piling on to defend him and the war. Amna Nawaz discussed more with Rev. James Martin, a Jesuit priest and editor-at-large of America magazine.
