I’d Like to Be Pope – Trump Jokingly Says During an Interview
In a light-hearted moment on Tuesday, former U.S. President Donald Trump joked that he’d love to be the next pope.
When asked who he thought should become the next head of the Catholic Church, Trump replied, “I’d like to be pope. That would be my number one choice.” He quickly added that he doesn’t have a real preference but mentioned a New York cardinal he thinks highly of, saying, “We have a cardinal from New York who’s very good, so we’ll see.”
While Trump was likely referring to Cardinal Timothy Dolan, he’s not currently among the leading candidates. However, another American, Cardinal Joseph Tobin of Newark, New Jersey, is reportedly being considered.
Trump and his wife, Melania, had recently traveled to Rome to attend the funeral of the late Pope Francis, who passed away at 88. Over the years, Trump and the late pontiff had clashed on issues like immigration, with Francis often calling for compassion, while Trump pushed for stricter policies.
Soon, around 135 Catholic cardinals are expected to gather for a secret vote to choose the next pope, with no obvious successor yet in sight.
