See Donnie? This is how a leader tweets a Pope's passing.

Things #Democrats Otter remember:

Your friendly reminder that it is literally a federal felony punishable by up to five years in prison for the President, Vice President, or any employee of the White House to directly or indirectly ask the IRS to open an investigation into any specific taxpayer.
