On Thursday, November 7, the highest diplomat for the Roman Catholic Church congratulated US President-elect Donald Trump and wished him “nice knowledge” as he prepares to return to the White Home.
Cardinal Pietro Parolin, the Vatican’s Secretary of State, remarked, “We want him nice knowledge as a result of, in accordance with the Bible, that is the primary advantage of rulers.”
On the fringes of an occasion in Rome, Parolin acknowledged, “I feel he has to place in essentially the most effort to change into president of all the nation, so he can overcome the polarisation … which has been felt very, very clearly on this time.”
The cardinal’s statements are the primary time a Vatican official has publicly mentioned Trump’s resounding victory. The pinnacle of the Catholic Church since March 2013, Pope Francis, has beforehand denounced Trump’s insurance policies.
Trump’s promise to crack down on unlawful immigration and deport hundreds of thousands of immigrants presently in the US was deemed “towards life” by the Pope in September. Francis claimed in 2016 that Trump’s stance on immigration was “not Christian.”
