U.S. President Donald Trump on Tuesday joked that he would like to succeed Pope Francis, who died last week at the age of 88.
Trump, asked about whom he'd like to see become the next Catholic pontiff, told reporters: 'I'd like to be pope. That would be my No. 1 choice.'
Trump noted he actually had no preference, adding, 'I must say, we have a cardinal that happens to be out of a place called New York who’s very good, so we’ll see what happens.” Reuters
