United States President Donald Trump took to his Truth Social platform to express sorrow following the death of Pope Francis. In a brief but heartfelt post, Trump wrote, “Rest in Peace Pope Francis! May God Bless him and all who loved him!”

The message came as global leaders and citizens mourn the passing of the revered spiritual figure. Pope Francis, who served as the head of the Roman Catholic Church, was widely respected for his leadership and humanitarian efforts throughout his papacy.

Trump’s tribute was one of the first official reactions from the U.S. leadership. His statement emphasized sympathy and spiritual solidarity with those grieving the Pope’s passing.

Former President Joe Biden also issued a message of condolence via his official X (formerly Twitter) account. “He will be remembered as one of the most consequential leaders of our time,” Biden noted, reflecting on the Pope’s global impact and moral authority.

The remarks from both Trump and Biden underscore the wide-reaching influence of Pope Francis. Known for his commitment to social justice, climate awareness, and interfaith dialogue, the late pontiff leaves behind a legacy of compassion and transformation that transcended political and religious boundaries.

As the world reflects on Pope Francis’s life and leadership, tributes continue to pour in from religious, political, and community leaders around the globe, honoring a figure seen by many as a guiding voice in turbulent times.
