Trump Hints at Papal Ambition After Attending Pope's Funeral

Donald Trump reportedly said, "I'd like to be Pope. That would be my number one choice."

He attended Pope Francis' funeral on Saturday, 26, at the Vatican with other global leaders.

The conclave to elect the next Pope begins June 7, where Cardinals typically choose one of their own — though technically, anyone can be selected.

Trump’s Religion?

He identifies as Christian, not officially tied to a specific church. He often appeals to religious conservatives on issues like abortion and LGBT rights.
