Summary
What is the true legacy of Pope Francis? Michael Savage discusses the controversial topic of Pope Francis's legacy, expressing both admiration for Catholicism and criticism of the late Pope. Labeling him "Lenin's Pope" for prioritizing political agendas like socialism over his spiritual leadership. Savage contrasts Francis with past popes, arguing that his background in a South American socialist environment has skewed his economic perspectives. He critiques the Pope's involvement in U.S.-Cuba relations and his promotion of climate change initiatives. He references historical examples of past Popes who acted more like political leaders than spiritual figures. Savage urges Catholics to discern between the pope's moral teachings and his opinions on complex socio-economic issues, reinforcing that one doesn't have to align with the pope on political views to maintain one's faith.

| 0:14.8 | Here he is, Michael Savage. |
| 0:19.1 | Welcome to The Savage Nation. I'm Michael Savage. This week's topic is a little difficult |
| 0:24.7 | and a little risky in some ways, which is, I've asked, what is the Pope's true legacy? Now, |
| 0:31.6 | first of all, to offer any criticism of a major religious figure is risky to begin with. People say, who the hell are you |
| 0:39.4 | to make such statements? What right of you to make those statements? Hold on just a minute, |
| 0:45.7 | because you'll find out that although I'm quite critical of this liberation theologist pope, |
| 0:51.9 | who I pray for, by the way, the last few popes were not like him. |
| 0:58.8 | They were not like him at all. |
| 1:00.0 | And I've asked on my social media, what do you think is the Pope's true legacy? |
| 1:04.2 | And I'll read the comments of the people. |
| 1:06.8 | Most people in America who see themselves as politically conservative have seen through Pope Francis |
| 1:12.9 | from the day he was foisted upon the world stage. After all, he has a history. He was a bouncer |
| 1:18.4 | in Argentina, I believe. And just like Obama, he was put a put into this position. So I'm |
| 1:25.2 | going to go back a little bit in case you think I'm an apostate who doesn't like Catholics. You're 100% wrong. I think Catholicism is a beautiful |
| 1:32.1 | religion. In fact, a Catholic viewer sent me this a while ago, which I still carry with me, |
| 1:38.0 | even though I am not Catholic, because I believe in the power of prayer, the power of God, |
| 1:42.4 | and the power of all of the world's religions when they're oriented towards God, not towards politics. Savage. Michael Savage, |
| 1:50.7 | a host like no other. So I asked an Orthodox rabbi, what should I do today? |
| 2:03.3 | And he said, well, I don't know. |
| 2:04.5 | He didn't say, I don't know. |
