Weeks after Pope Francis death, Trump laughed off questions about AI-generated photo of him as pope. His dismissal comes on the eve of papal conclave.

Trump recently joked he would like to be the pope as the Vatican prepares to vote for the next pontiff following Pope Francis’ death last month.

“I’d like to be pope. That would be my number one choice,” Trump told reporters following Pope Francis’ death, when asked who should replace him. Trump added that he actually had no preference, but that Cardinal Timothy Dolan, Archbishop of New York, who is not on the list the Vatican is considering for the next pope, is “very good.”
