Questioned on Tuesday, April 29 by journalists about the person who would like to see Pope Francis, who died on April 21, Donald Trump decided: He. “I would like to be Pope. It would be my number one option,” said the president of the United States, informs our colleagues from the British press agency Reuters.
Last Saturday accompanied by his wife Mélania, Donald Trump went to the funeral of the Sovereign Pontiff who died at the age of 88 years of Easter on Monday. An appearance marked by the improvised interview between the American leader and his Ukrainian counterpart, Volodymyr Zelensky.
A new American Pope?
It is not on the very hypothetical list of “Papili” (understand the “contestants” to the current event). Cardinal Timothy Dolan, Archbishop of New York, seems to be the great “favorite” of Donald Trump.
“I must say that we have a cardinal who turns out to be a place called New York and that it is very good,” he added. A reference barely hidden from the nationality of the Pontiff that, until now, has never been American.
If Cardinal Dolan is not chosen, it may be that Joseph William Tobin, Newark Archbishop (New Jersey), instead. Detroit’s 72 -year -old man is cited regularly on the media Papili list since the announcement of Pope Francis’s death. Cardinal was created in November 2016, by the late Jorge Mario Bergoglio.
