While I like Pope Francis a lot. He doesn't get to decided who is, or who isn't a Christian. The best he should say is that Trump isn't a Roman Catholic style Christian. On that we can agree.

pay attention to the "authority of the pope" distinction (and note the whole over twice as many Protestants than Catholics...etc.)

There are some Christians who don't think that the Pope is Christian. Just throwing that out there.

I'm one of them. I don't think he's a Christian. He's too Christ-like.
God belief is for people who don't want to live life on the universe's terms.

Yes he does, just like everyone else. His comments are directed at behavior and thoughts he consideres unchristian.

There are plenty of people who think the Pope isn't Christian because of his actions. Fortunately they don't get to decide either.

Once I saw this guy on a bridge about to jump. I said, "Don't do it!" He said, "Nobody loves me." I said, "God loves you. Do you believe in God?"
He said, "Yes." I said, "Are you a Christian or a Jew?" He said, "A Christian." I said, "Me, too! Protestant or Catholic?" He said, "Protestant." I said, "Me, too! What franchise?" He said, "Baptist." I said, "Me, too! Northern Baptist or Southern Baptist?" He said, "Northern Baptist." I said, "Me, too! Northern Conservative Baptist or Northern Liberal Baptist?"
He said, "Northern Conservative Baptist." I said, "Me, too! Northern Conservative Baptist Great Lakes Region, or Northern Conservative Baptist Eastern Region?" He said, "Northern Conservative Baptist Great Lakes Region." I said, "Me, too!"
Northern Conservative†Baptist Great Lakes Region Council of 1879, or Northern Conservative Baptist Great Lakes Region Council of 1912?" He said, "Northern Conservative Baptist Great Lakes Region Council of 1912." I said, "Die, heretic!" And I pushed him over.
