Who would have thought it could ever happen.
It would have been interesting during the Kennedy era now maybe not so, he was so quickly picked by the cardinals perhaps as a world bulwark against DT? Just speculating. BTW I am a very lapsed catholic since 1964.
It's interesting that so many Libtards are hopeful that the new Pope will pressure Donald Trump to back away from some of his policies that have them losing their mentally ill minds. Back when John F. Kennedy was running for President, the big concern was that being Catholic, JFK would do the bidding of his Pope... instead of doing what was best for the nation, as Trump is doing.
Of course, Liberal Democrats, who all seem to love perverted lifestyles, were quite happy when former Pope Francis made his comments on judging gays. Strange that they felt he was 100% correct on that, but they still didn't accept his strict views on abortion. That's Liberal Democrats for you... they even lie to themselves.
