US EditionTrump jokes that he’d like to be the next pope, plugs NY cardinal
- Outside the White House on Tuesday, President Donald Trump humorously expressed his wish to become the next pope and mentioned a New York cardinal as a potential candidate.
- Trump referred to Cardinal Timothy Dolan, the leader of New York's Archdiocese, as a strong candidate amid preparations for a papal conclave on May 7.
- The conclave will elect a successor to Pope Francis, who died on April 21 after a long illness, with 135 cardinals voting behind closed doors in the Vatican.
- Trump said, "I have no preference," but praised the New York cardinal as "very good," while experts consider an American pope highly unlikely.
- The pope's role demands universal leadership beyond national origin, making Dolan's election a remote possibility despite Trump's public endorsement joke.
