President Trump has acknowledged the pope’s dying in a one-line submit on Fact Social, writing: “Rest in Peace Pope Francis! May God Bless him and all who loved him!”

Trump and Francis clashed repeatedly in recent times.

Trump praised the pope at first of Francis’s papacy, in 2013, a number of years earlier than Trump reached the White Home.

“The new Pope is a humble man, very much like me, which probably explains why I like him so much!” Trump tweeted in December of that 12 months, a number of months after Francis turned pope.

Issues soured quickly after. In the course of the 2016 election, Francis roundly criticized Trump’s marketing campaign proposal to construct a wall on the U.S.-Mexico border.

“A person who thinks only about building walls, wherever they may be, and not building bridges, is not Christian,” Francis stated on the time.

Trump — who aggressively courted evangelical Christian leaders and voters throughout his marketing campaign — fired again instantly, saying, “for a religious leader to question a person’s faith is disgraceful.”

“If and when the Vatican is attacked by ISIS, which as everyone knows is ISIS’s ultimate trophy, I can promise you that the Pope would have only wished and prayed that Donald Trump would have been President because this would not have happened,” he added.

Trump met the Pope throughout a 2017 journey to the Vatican, later telling reporters: “He is something. We had a fantastic meeting.” A photograph from the go to, wherein Trump is smiling subsequent to a glum-looking Francis, rapidly went viral.

Practically a decade later, amidst the second Trump administration’s crackdown on immigration, the pope as soon as once more made a uncommon public rebuke of the president’s insurance policies.

In a public letter to U.S. Catholic bishops, February, Francis described this system of mass deportations as a “major crisis.”

He stated whereas nations have the proper to defend themselves, “the rightly formed conscience cannot fail to make a critical judgment and express its disagreement with any measure that tacitly or explicitly identifies the illegal status of some migrants with criminality.”

“The act of deporting people who in many cases have left their own land for reasons of extreme poverty, insecurity, exploitation, persecution or serious deterioration of the environment, damages the dignity of many men and women, and of entire families, and places them in a state of particular vulnerability and defenselessness,” Francis wrote.

The letter additionally appeared to reply to widely-criticized feedback that Vice President Vance, who’s Catholic, had made weeks earlier. Vance stated folks ought to care for his or her household, communities and nation earlier than caring for others — and Francis disagreed.

“Christian love is not a concentric expansion of interests that little by little extend to other persons and groups,” the pope wrote.
