Trump & Vance, on Francis
-
Decorum & respect - but if you read between lines, Francis was not someone they like.
JD Vance:

The thing that I will always remember Pope Francis for is that he was a great pastor. People on the margins, poor people, people suffering from diseases — they saw in Pope Francis an advocate and I think a true expression of Christian love.
Impersonal. "They ('People') saw in him". Not "I saw" & certainly not "he was".
& I agree.
JD Vance, again PROPER but cautious:

I just learned of the passing of Pope Francis. My heart goes out to the millions of Christians all over the world who loved him. I was happy to see him yesterday, though he was obviously very ill.
President Trump - flying flags at half mast which is respectful.

Rest in Peace Pope Francis! May God Bless him and all who loved him!
....as in, Trump didn't. Trump is fine, if you did tho.
This one is hilarious:

Melania and I will be going to the funeral of Pope Francis, in Rome. We look forward to being there!
I'll bet they do.

Policy-wise: Francis was pro-CCP, pro-migration & -covidist- in ways that helped kill people. Disgusting. And oh yeah, his anti-Gay diatribes.
