Hey Dope! The Pope Says Nope

Secret Service personnel dropping like flies to the virus. Who is going to protect the president?

Trump makes a call to the Vatican…

Trump (holding phone to his ear): “One ringy-dinghy, two ringy dinghies. Three ringy-…oh, hello, is this the Pope to whom I have called?”

Pope Francis: “Yes, this is Pope Francis. Who is this?”

Trump: “Donald J. Trump. (a long pause on the other end, audible sigh, longer pause). Hello, hello. Are you still there?”

Pope Francis: “Yeah, but I’m sort of busy. What do you want?”

Trump: “Thanks. Well, first of all, why did you name yourself after a talking mule? Why not after a manly stallion, you know, like Trigger?”

Pope Francis: “I’m named after St. Francis of Assisi.”

Trump: “Oh wow! That’s even worse. Francis the Sissy, a tree-hugging, kitten-breast feeding, peace-loving, vegan snowflake. You know the guy was so weak, he couldn’t even bench press a can of tuna, much less eat it.”

Pope Francis: “The purpose of your call… (we hear a loud gulping sound) …my son.”

Trump: “My Secret Service are all sick. Can I borrow your Swiss Guard? I hear those Swedish guys are some bad ass Viking hombres.”

Pope Francis: “They are Swiss nationals from Switzerland, not Sweden.”

Trump: “Really? I thought Switzerland and Sweden were the same country and some people just pronounce it differently, like REAL-TOR and RE-LA-TOR. I am a RE-LA-TOR myself. Can’t have my amazing business of putting up shoddy buildings, ruined by PC, nit-picking, language activists.”

Pope Francis: “Of course not. You’re on the wrong side of history, why not the wrong side of grammar.”

Trump: “Exactly.”

Pope Francis: “However, I’m sorry…m-m-my s-s-son…you may not borrow my Swiss Guard.”

Trump: “well, that’s too bad Franny, because I know you are up for re-election in November, like I am, and there are a lot of pro-Trumpers right there in that palace with you, wearing MAGA caps.”

Pope Francis: “That’s the College of Cardinals. Those red caps they wear are not MAGA caps.”

Trump: “Fine, fine. So, you have a lot of money, Francisco. Enough to wallpaper the Sistine chapel with $100 bills. How about letting me borrow a few million dollars””

Pope Francis: “Are you re-decorating your bunker, my son? If you can say Rubber Baby Buggy Bunker, five times really fast, I’ll give you the cash.”
