        President Pope sounds like a bad action movie. He would also be a cop too. And be one day from retirement. “President Pope, you’re a loose cannon. The mayor’s breathing down my neck. Hand in your gun and badge… and Bible.”

        Honestly, he’d probably better than like 80+% of the field we’ve had in the last 3 elections or will have if there is another one.

          Have you ever seen his brother talk? It sounds like that family is all pretty conservative. I bet his brother is MAGA. I’m guessing his politics aren’t that different. Though maybe he doesn’t talk about them so openly, because of his position.

      The pope is technically a head of state position for a foreign nation so he couldn’t run for president while holding that office.

      But it would still be cool.

        That would be like a President owning and running businesses that get revenue from foreign leaders while he was in office. That would be a conflict of interest and would never be allowed by Congress or the Courts.
