Donald Trump doesn't reflect on much of anything outside his grievances and golf game.
Pope Francis was a beacon of light in a fraught world. Calling for bringing people together, not tearing them apart, is the true message of Jesus. That message has been battered almost beyond recognition in our present day. You do not have to be Catholic to grieve for this courageous and spiritually generous man.
You do not have to have been born yesterday to disbelieve every word that comes out of Donald Trump's mouth.
The contrast between these two men couldn't be starker. Pope Francis will be a model for what I consider spiritually important and beautiful for the rest of my life. May he rest in peace.
It is surprising that Trump is willing to skip something as profound and important as a round of golf just to honor the Pope's life and death. (Maybe Trump heard that the Vatican has a championship level 18 holes.)
This is it. It's not a serious event unless he is there, and I'm sure nobody called to see if he was coming (I can hear the collective groan from Rome sitting in my kitchen). He needs the validation.

Probably. I think he's thrilled to be around so many famous, important people, many of whom will be in deep grief. What a crass, pathetic humanoid.

Maybe he wants to build one. Look at that wasted space out the front. And what a clubhouse the cathedral would make. All that gold !
