The rise of Cardinal Robert Prevost, better known as Leo XIV, as the new pope was met with a strong response from US President Donald Trump’s meme about the pope, according to American media personality Benny Johnson. On Thursday, Johnson announced this on his X account.
His statement comes after Leo XIV was elected pope following Pope Francis’s death.
Johnson commented that it was obvious the Vatican did not want tariffs, suggesting that Leo XIV is just another win for Trump.
It was effective, the Trump Pope meme. At long last, a pope from the United States has been elected. It was obvious that the Vatican was opposed to tariffs. “Yet another Trump victory,” he wrote on X. The first American pope, Leo XIV, was chosen on Thursday, according to the Naijatrial.
It is a tremendous honor for the United States, Trump said in reaction to Leo XIV’s emergence.
This comes after a meme that Trump shared on his Truth Social account caused a stir and went viral.
