When I saw this first as a screen capture, I honestly thought it was a fake. How can this possibly be real? The official White House account on Twitter, publishing a photoshopped image showing President Donald J. Trump dressed up as the Pope?
But no. Holy trumpeting macaroni, no. The world has gone completely bonkers and yes, the official Twitter account of the executive branch of the government of the United States of America is promoting a Photoshopped image, showing their President (who, as far as I know, is not even a Catholic so technically I’d have more legitimacy as Pope than him) dressed up as the Holy Father of the Roman Catholic Church.
What an awful self-satisfied snout. I guess the picture was approved by him, hence if he looks somewhat piggish here, he is satisfied with looking that way :(
Meanwhile, who can be the next pope? I guess most of us have vague idea of what is going inside Holy See – but there are numerous articles like this one, showcases of candidates.
Just for fun, and if not a secret – whom would you pick?
The image that was reposted by the official White House account was previously posted by Trump himself on his personal Truth Social account. And no, I have absolutely no idea who the next pope will be.
