Donald Trump said he was ‘looking forward’ to the Pope’s funeral and of all the responses this A++ comeback surely said it best
Millions of Catholics around the world are mourning the death of Pope Francis, who has died at the age of 88.
World leaders have been expressing their condolences after the death of the pontiff, whose popular appeal reached far beyond his global congregation.
And no leader’s message was weirder than – you’re way ahead of us – Donald Trump, who said this.
It’s not just about the exclamation mark, obviously, but it really is the icing on this particular cake.
And it prompted no end of totally on-point responses …

English is not my first language, so I must ask: Is it normal to express excitement about a funeral? pic.twitter.com/vOLzB9Iarc

This motherfucker treats Pope funeral like it’s a Mar-a-Lago gala. Pope’s not cold dead yet and Trump’s already RSVP’ing with a smile. ‘We look forward to being there!’ — bro, it’s not a fucking barbecue. This is why the world laughs at us. pic.twitter.com/5Bgbd9vHJc

… but surely no-one said it better than this particular establishment with which Trump is more than familiar (no, not the Vatican).
Not as much as we’re looking forward to yours. pic.twitter.com/PwX6mewhKO

Just the right side of ‘harsh but fair’ we reckon.
Hey Fuckface, there’s one funeral in particular that the world is really really really looking forward to. pic.twitter.com/6p7GQYgJ2U
