Trump to attend Pope Francis’ funeral in Rome

Investing.com -- U.S. President Donald Trump announced on Monday that he and his wife, Melania Trump, will be attending the funeral of Pope Francis in Rome. The announcement was made on Truth Social, a social media platform.

In a previous interaction with reporters at the White House, when asked about his message to Catholics, Trump expressed his solidarity with them. He stated, "We love you all. We’re with you all. They were with me during the election as you know very strongly. And it’s just an honor to have the support of the Catholics. And I feel very badly for them because they love the Pope."

The president’s decision to attend the funeral underscores the relationship he has maintained with the Catholic community, which he acknowledged supported him during his election. His presence at the funeral will be an expression of respect and solidarity with Catholics worldwide, who are mourning the loss of their spiritual leader.
