I would think purrell would be a mandatory part of the Pope’s kit for the day.

“These are books from Martin Luther King. I think you will enjoy them,"
Trump told the pope.

“And, could you please read them, and type up a half page summary, like a 6th grade book report,
with a couple of diagrams, so that I can tell people that I actually read them? Thanks Pope-y!”

The one on the left looks like she left her Twilight audition without changing.

“I won’t forget what you said.”

Only if the pope teased him at a dinner roast would Trump remember what was said.

“We can use peace,” …again with the vocabulary. Is Trump unable to speak except in 12 year old terms?

As is tradition, the pope and president exchanged gifts. Trump presented the pontiff with a custom-bound, first-edition set of Martin Luther King Jr.’s works, an engraved stone from the King memorial in Washington and a bronze sculpture of a flowering lotus titled “Rising Above.”

Skimming the text I must admit I was startled by the “Martin Luther” , until a closer inspection revealed the ‘King’ part of the name.

I am still a bit unsure about the ‘tactfulness’ of this gift, AFAIK King was a baptist (?) and definitely not a catholic, I even think I can recall the problem John F.Kennedy’s catholicism was for some RealAmericans™.

Not clear if Donald is trying to make the Pope a protestant ? It’s not like Martin Luther is an unknown name in the Vatican…

“A great honor”
Wassamatta, didn’t rate “amazing”?
What’s amazing is that at the Audience a bolt of lightning didn’t hit El Bufón

Pope Francis won’t tell so we can only imagine the message in his private audience…,
"My priests told their American parishioners to vote republican, and this is the thanks we get? "

Yeah, but does the Pope have a cool orb or palantir thingy?

Donald said the meeting was merely ‘fantastic’.

The Swiss Guard have swords, right?
You know, at least Trump didn’t do something really inappropriate, like make jokes about girls to the Swiss Guard.
