Thinking about how the Pope is going to vote for President in 2028, same as I will, and my vote will count the same as the Pope’s. Yours will too. It’s so weird.

I would be willing to be pretty much any amount of money you care to name that he won't vote. There's an open question about whether he even can or whether he implicitly renounced his citizenship by becoming the head of state of the Vatican.
He hangs out with the Catholic conservatives and when somebody starts railing about Vatican II, Vance jumps in and yells, "And what about the new Pope voting against me for vice-president?! That guy sucks!" and everyone else stops talking and just stares at him until he mutters, "Stupid lousy Pope."
That only applies to Federal officials/US military officers. E.g. LTC Nick Moran (aka The Chieftain, the tank guy on youtube) had to give up his Irish citizenship when he got his commission as a 2LT.) So the Pope is still an American citizen, he just can't run for Congress or lead an Army platoon.
Profoundly Christian though! (Still pro-separation of church and state, but some Christian values do overlap with democracy/socialism. MAGA just generally ignores those.)
funny that half these have the same answer as like a dealership owner who retires to thailand, and the other have the same answer as a woman marrying into the royal family
