Reason behind Donald Trump’s seat at Pope Francis’ funeral after being branded ‘disgrace’ during service

Part 1 of 2

There were rumors that Donald Trump would be given a “third-tier” seat at Pope Francis’ funeral, but it turns out he was placed somewhere else.

Earlier today (April 28), the funeral for Pope Francis began, following his passing at the age of 88 on April 21.

Hundreds of thousands of people gathered in St. Peter’s Square in Vatican City to honor the late Pope. Among those attending were world leaders like US President Donald Trump, French President Emmanuel Macron, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, and UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer.

However, the seating arrangement — especially where Trump was placed — has sparked quite a bit of buzz online.

Trump was expected to be given a “third-tier” seat at the service.

Although the Vatican didn’t share official seating plans ahead of time, reports said that Catholic royals would be placed in the front row, followed by non-Catholic royals like Prince William.

After them would come world leaders and heads of state. Since the seating was organized in alphabetical order based on the country names in French, it was likely that Trump would be a few rows back.

According to MSNBC, the Holy See’s press office said Trump would probably be seated between the leaders of Estonia and Finland.
