America Gets Brutally Roasted Within Seconds Of New American Pope Leo XIV’s Big Reveal

 

ABC News anchor David Muir delivered a devastating zinger to the United States of America seconds after newly-anointed Pope Leo XIV was revealed.

88-year-old Pope Francis passed away two weeks ago, and on Wednesday, the process to select a new pope began in Vatican City with a procession at the Sistine Chapel, where the world watched and waited for the smoke signal that a new pope had been chosen.

As it turned out, the cardinals did not have to “raw-dog” it for long — the Vatican popped the white smoke on Thursday afternoon after a fourth vote.

The winner and new pope was announced as Cardinal Robert Prevost of Chicago, making him the first American to head the church and likely the first and last Cubs fan to do so.

Just seconds after Cardinal Protodeacon Dominique Mamberti made the announcement from the Loggia of Blessings of St. Peter’s Basilica, Muir dropped a brutal roast on these here God-blessed U.S. of A. by explaining why Leo is considered “the least American of the Americans”:

ABC NEWS ANCHOR DAVID MUIR: Robert Francis Prevost of the United States, 69 years old, born in Chicago, has been named the next pope.

There you see a picture of him on the left-hand side of your screen. There had been so much talk about whether or not there was a slim possibility that there would be an American Pope, one from the United states.

He went to college at Villanova. Studied mathematics.

Italian media has referred to him as the least American of the Americans because of his quiet, humble way.

He had years of missionary experience in Peru, strong connections in Latin America and with bishops. And through the years, he said very little about the church’s divisive subjects.

ABC News contributor and Vatican Consultant Father James Martin made a similar observation over the weekend.
