Macron deftly swerved Trump’s attempted handshake at the Vatican, and the internet gave a resounding “Amen!”
The funeral of Pope Francis I on Saturday was the ornate and solemn spectacle the Catholic Church does so well, attended by hundreds of dignitaries, including heads of state.
Farewell to Pope Francis and a special Mass at St. Peter’s Square. The unity of people from all parts of the world. Gratitude to Pope Francis. Prayers that strengthen and inspire hope.

Donald Trump embarrassed the US by turning up in his signature blue suit, rather than a respectful black.
A blue suit?
Donald Trump couldn’t even be respectful and wear a black suit to Pope Francis’ funeral like the rest of world leaders.
He always has to stick out and try and be the center of attention.

There was a spontaneous round of applause in St. Peter’s Basilica on the arrival of Ukraine’s President Zelenskyy.

When the French President, Emmanuel Macron, approached presidents Trump and Zelenskyy, people noticed a little sleight of hand – and we don’t mean Trump’s slight hands. Watch what happened.

Whether he didn’t want the usual hand-crushing competition or there was a more critical message behind the manoeuvre, the internet was here for it.

These videos keep showing the truth that Trump is weak, aimless, and desperate. Without his mob, he’s nothing and that’s when the misbehavior begins

I will ALWAYS love Macron for refusing to shake trump's tiny, crooked hand.
Besides, he's already crushed the shit out of it numerous times. pic.twitter.com/sd60UD51Nw

The Pope’s funeral was really his last gift to the world.
It’s showing how truly feckless and impotent Donald Trump is on the world’s stage. https://t.co/Ld4z9FKI6H
