The Meeting

Regarding this meeting, count on the un-president seeing to it that an "accident" happens that makes the Holy Father seem foolish, off-balance, shamed in some way, while he, the un-president, looks good, righteous, a somber, intelligent messiah before the old ways of the disposable West.

He is keen on gestures and the nonverbal cues and signals.

The only world leader he has kowtowed to was the Saudi (you saw the picture of the non-bow). All else with disdain. The un-president never knew what it was to grow up in real American community, the grange down the way, the courthouse steps, the Gaffers as elders. These he resents with a vengeance.

But be assured, this meeting and scorn with the Holy Father will merely be a reenactment of the Crucifixion: the very ontological moment when the power that the un-president depends on was undone.
