(50,254 posts)He was a louse, but it was still a douchey move for Trump to keep him from going on the Rome trip.
And let's face it...half the reason Francis is doing this is to troll Hair Fuhrer.

Also, despite all his issues, Spicey at least has some belief's, unlike his Orange Eminence. Not my cup of tea, by any stretch, but something. And someone who feel's this strongly, about meeting this pope, maybe there is some good inside there somewhere . . .
Like, if the Hound can be rehabilitated . . .

(11,126 posts)Spicey sold his credibility for Trump and was rewarded by not being allowed to attend the papal audience. I felt sorry for him at the time - even a creep ought to have been treated better by the Creep-in-Chief. I hope the experience brought on a spirit of repentance.

(11,949 posts)Not defending his years of regressive policies but he seems a changed man. And I hope it helps show spicey the errors of his way.
I do not really believe in divine intervention but people can be so emotionally moved as to make a major change.

Trump keeping spicer out was done for no other reason than to be cruel to him.
