Posts showing support for Donald
Trump's make America Great Again (MAGA) movement by one of Pope
Leo XIV's older brothers, Louis 'Lou' Prevost were published by
US media outlets on Monday.
Lou Prevost, who lives in Port Charlotte, Florida, recently
shared MAGA memes and insults against former US President Barack
Obama and former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.
The Daily Beast discovered Lou's posts, which are still visible
on his social media page.
"These f**king liberals crying about tariffs are incredible.
Don't they know there's something called video?" the eldest
Prevost commented in early April, alluding to unproven
allegations that Paul Pelosi had a gay relationship with his
attacker David DePape.
In another post, Lou suggests that his "leftist" friends who
"cry about Trump's victory" should "hibernate" for the next four
years.
Speaking of Obama and the Democrats, he writes that "they suck.
They are one step away from being full-blown communists, wanting
to completely destroy our way of life and turn this country into
a dictatorship, and a racist one at that."
The Democratic Party being overrun by communists is a recurring
theme: in one post, Lou claims that "Kamala Harris and the
Democrats will destroy America and be proud of it," while in
another she claims that "back when our country was founded,
before the liberals took over and ruined our schools, all these
left-wing Democrats would have been tarred and feathered and
driven out of town on donkeys, or worse, shot or hanged for
ruining people's lives so badly."
He then moves on to anti-vax and anti-woke content. A shared
video of a mental institution is accompanied by the caption:
"This is where the woke lived before the 1970s."
Lou didn't let his MAGA spirit show in an interview with the New
York Times after his brother's election: "It seems like
yesterday I was pushing him down the stairs and now he's Pope,"
he said.
The elder Prevost, who admitted he's not a pacifist like his
brother, suggested to the Times that Leo will be "a little more
conservative than his predecessor."
