It looks like Trump wants to become the next Pope if what he said is to go by.

According to Reuters, when asked by reporters about whom he’d like to see become the next Catholic pontiff, Donald Trump jokingly expressed interest in becoming the next Pope.

“I’d like to be pope. That would be my No. 1 choice” Donald Trump jokingly remarked.

He then clarified that he had no specific preference, adding:

“I must say, we have a cardinal that happens to be out of a place called New York who’s very good, so we’ll see what happens.”

Social Media Reacts to Trump’s Pope Remark

I think it’s time for another flood

@secretsandlaws;

Trump can’t be Pope because he’s not a Christian. He admitted once that he’s never asked God for forgiveness. For anything. That means he has no idea what it means to be a Christian, or what the religion is about.

Of course, since you have no principles, you’ll support him nonetheless.

If Tr*mp can be Pope, I’d like to apply to be the Easter bunny.

@dontdemdownsrq;

He doesn’t qualify. Lol married three times. Zero annulments for starters. Dark horse apocalypse scenario!

@jewmanji;

Joking? Probably.
Pathetic? Definitely.

These motherfuckers stay saying just anything. I try to ignore Trump shit, but Trump as a Pope? I promise you he can’t list the 7 Sacraments. And Trump has already failed to quote scripture more than once. Y’all just delusional and ignorant
