During a speech at the National Catholic Prayer Breakfast, Vice President JD Vance reflected on how Pope Francis's 2020 sermon provided him with solace during the Covid pandemic. He acknowledged his prior disagreements with the Pope, particularly regarding Trump's deportation policy, but chose not to revisit those issues out of respect for the Holy Father, who is currently dealing with health challenges. Vance, emotionally recalling the severity of the pandemic's impact, emphasized the positive influence of the Pope’s message during a challenging time for families.
"At a time of incredible stress for the entire world, the height of the covid pandemic... I had just welcomed our second child into the world and so, when the Covid pandemic happened, I had a three-week-old baby."
"You obviously know my views. He's a man who cares about the spiritual direction of the faith. I say this because everyday me and my children have said a prayer for the Holy Father and we pray for his health..."
