Trump Wants the Next Pope to Be an American - Bild.
US President Donald Trump has expressed his desire for the next Pope to be an American. He is very interested in the funeral of Pope Francis due to the support he has among American Catholics. Since 2020, Trump has considered himself a 'Christian without a denomination'.
It seems that Trump may try to influence the selection of the next Pope to ensure that an American takes office. It is important to note that Francis has criticized Trump's immigration policy and cited examples of how such a leader 'is not a Christian'.
Trump hopes that the new Pope will be less critical of him and will become a supporter of 'conservative American Catholicism'. It is known that among the potential candidates for the position of Pope are American cardinals, but currently, there is no favorite.
Let us recall that Trump broke the dress code at the funeral of Pope Francis by appearing in a blue suit. According to the requirements, men were to be dressed in a dark suit with a black tie and a black button on the left lapel.
