Everyone challenge him. Tell him he can't do it. He is such a narcissist that it will consume him and he will leave the USA alone while he tries to become Pope.
Hear me out here - what if we tell Trump he "won 'pope'", and he should come to Vatican City to collect his prize. Say it's a beautiful prize or some bs. Then when he comes to collect, the Swiss Guard can arrest him for wearing a blue suit to the funeral or something, and lock him in the catacombs under the city to add him to the church's collection of curiosities.
The pope has absolute power and authority over the Catholic Church. If Trump were elected pope I guarantee the first thing he would do is empty the bank accounts of the church, sign over all the property they have all over the world to himself, collect all the art etc, perhaps make the Sistine chapel his personal residence, and ban everyone except security and family from entering the Vatican.
It would be hilarious. The Catholic Church is one of the wealthiest entities in the world… and Trump would immediately put it all in his name permanently if he became pope.
"Why does the smoke have to be white? Why can't it be gold? I want gold smoke, the best smoke. You know, the people will love it, they've all told me. 'Donald, when you're pope, make sure the smoke is gold. It'll class up the place.' We're really gonna clean up the Vatican, and catholicism as a whole, I think. Me and God, we're really very close, nobody's closer, in fact. I think some people maybe said Jesus, but I don't know about that. Who let's their son be crucified? You know I asked God once, why would you let your son be crucified if you love him that much? And the whole devil thing? Me and Lucifer, we're gonna get that sorted out. 24 hours, boom, no more hell, everybody goes to heaven. You make me pope, 100% raptured. 100%, that's a not a promise, it's a guarantee. They'll all say, 'Donny, you were the best pope ever.' and they'll be right."
Aren't most Christians in the US Protestants? Especially the Evangelical Protestants he's always targeting? Does Trump even know what kind of Christians he's trying to please?
I wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't know not all Christians actually follow the pope
Technically the only 100% necessary qualifications to be pope are:
Be a man
Be (specifically) Catholic
And a third extremely common but not strictly necessary qualification of: Be a Cardinal.
I'm pretty sure Trump is some flavor of Baptist, which does in theory prevent his rise to the papacy, unless he specifically converts from whatever flavor of Baptist to Catholicism. But that risks alienating the evangelical protestants that fucking hate Catholics and think the papacy is the satanic antichist.
being the worst US president was too easy. Most of them were kinda decent people overall. Being the worst pope ever though... I guess he likes the challenge
"Jokes." It always starts with a joke. Here comes the Church of England 2.0 or rather the Church of MAGA. He will make himself the presidential pope king. I need to turn my filters. I am really tired of seeing this dumbass at least once a day.
First qualification of being pope is you have to know how to run a religious or criminal org. Having successfully run a casino on your resume would do it.
Let me check Trump's resume.. oh dear. This is the first time I've ever seen anyone fail at running a casino.
