As President Donald Trump was being sworn into office, Pope Francis warned about the rise of populist leaders such as Adolf Hitler.
The pontiff made the comments to Spanish newspaper El Pais, warning that Trump-like leaders abuse our judgement in times of crisis.

This could become a rift between Catholisim and Evangelism being that the church was very influential in th election of President Trump. The Roman Catholic Church should know about falling into the evils of Nazism. Because they also became complacent in the Nazi movement. The Roman Catholic church making a deal with Hitler. So they should know.
But does the Pope have a point? Maybe he does. I have heard Trump say things that could bring up an image of Fascism. And how should Catholics react to their Pope comparing our President to Hitler?
