“Pope Francis the other day said that in a sense, every Christian is called to be a martyr.”

I don’t think Francis means it in the context that most Christians would assume. The pope is a wolf in sheeps clothing, and I have the suspicion that he would relish the opportunity to rid the Church of actual Christians.

Frankie has said that he believes that he will be killed during his pontificate. Which would make him in his own mind the predicted pope who is martyred.

However, that honor actually goes to JPII who was saved and lived through his martyrdom and is now a bonafide saint.
