There is,of course, no reason to link the death of the Pope to the visit paid him by JD Vance just hours before the sad event.
Nonetheless, I confess that the mere thought of JD and his smarmy face kinda weakens my own will to live.
Imagine his effect in person on a very old gentleman, just recovering from a serious illness and faced with a self described "baby Catholic" who embodies much that Francis deplored.
Probably a coincidence.
