President Trump is expected to attend the funeral of the late Pope Francis, which is required to occur shortly after the pontiff's death. While at a White House Easter Egg Roll, Trump stated he was unsure about his attendance but expressed admiration for the pontiff, describing him as a "very good man" who cared deeply for those in need. The funeral schedule has not yet been finalized, but sources indicate that Trump will move forward with plans to be present. Past presidential attendance at such events includes George W. Bush at John Paul II's funeral.
"He was a very good man who loved the world, and he especially loved people that were having a hard time and that's good with me," the president added.
