In what can only be described as a cordial, successful meeting, Pope Francis received U.S. President Donald Trump in the Vatican Wednesday amidst smiles, handshakes and camera flashes.
The two leaders sat down for a half-hour face-to-face meeting, with the Pope leaning out over the table with his arms extended toward the President. On parting ways at the end of the meeting, the President thanked the Pope for his warm welcome, stating, “I won’t forget what you said.”
In its official press release, the Vatican described the meeting as “cordial” and said the two men spoke favorably of “the good existing bilateral relations between the Holy See and the United States of America,” as well as their joint commitment “in favor of life, religious liberty and freedom of conscience.”
This last statement was particularly significant.
While the Catholic Church was often at odds with the Obama administration over the issues of abortion and religious freedom, the Vatican wished to underscore a new common purpose with the United States under the Trump administration on these matters.

I think she’s staggering drunk in this picture.
Vomit-inducing Eyeball Abuse Alert.
Melania has a covering on her head, it looks like. A scarf? Chapel veil? Interesting.
It would have been useful if during this exchange someone at a lower level chastise this leader of a major Christian denomination for his failure to condemn the theological assertions contained in the Sharia code used when followers of Islam claim they’re authorized to do so by Our Creator.
You can take the bro out dah hood butcha cant.......
Yes, I was not home much yesterday. I was visiting my sick parents.
Ok. Barbara Bush is wearing a chapel veil— classic doily shape. I’ll go with calling Melania’s headcovering a chapel veil. The reason it piqued my interest was the refusal to cover up in Saudi Arabia, in contrast with the willingness to cover her head to meet the Pope. I don’t have a problem with that, but it would be interesting to know what the Saudis think of it.
Most of us who met the pope could honestly say the exact same thing, as with any historical figure.
Hey jumbo ears, help your wife and her get up! Sheesh, what morons!
What is Ivanka’s thing called? Just a hat with a veil?
I just puked up my breakfast!!!
I think the slacks have a front zipper.
President Trump is very skilled at sweet talking and attentively listening to stuff he knows is b.s. He knows the Pope is a socialist nincompoop with tyrannical tendencies, so he will let the nonsense roll off his back like water on a duck.
This is the picture illustrating skank and ho in the hip-hop dictionary.
Yeah, and something seems to be under that zipper. LOL
I, too, will remember the jaw dropping stuff that’s fallen out of the false pope’s mouth.
Trump to Pope: “Wanna say it to my face, yer Holiness?”
