VietPress USA (Oct. 26th, 2016): After publishing the news on Pope Francis has endorsed Hillary Clinton for President, we have received information and links from our readers to indicate that Pope Francis doesn't endorse Hillary Clinton. That is a hoax news.
Here is the reverse news from the Los Angeles Times:

No, Pope Francis will not be making an endorsement in the
U.S. presidential race.
But the leader of the Roman Catholic Church offered this
advice to American faithful: “Study the proposals well, pray, and choose in
conscience."
The pope struck a more reserved tone in remarks this weekend
than he has in the past. In February, when asked about Trump’s signature
campaign pledge, Francis said that a person who “only thinks about building
walls … and not building bridges is not Christian.”
Trump quickly fired back, calling it “disgraceful” for a
religious leader to question his faith. And he warned that if Islamic State
attacked the Vatican, the pope “would have only wished and prayed” that he were
president.
Catholic voters have often been a swing vote in presidential
elections. A Pew Research Center survey in June showed Hillary Clinton with a
17-point lead among Catholics powered by an overwhelming advantage with Latino
Catholics. Their poll at a similar point in the 2012 election showed President
Obama and Mitt Romney statistically tied.
