CNN, along with every other media outlet in the world, is reporting the new Pope is … Robert Prevost of the United States:
Cardinal Robert Francis Prevost of the United States has been elected the 267th pope and will soon step onto the balcony of St. Peter’s Basilica as the new leader of the world’s 1.4 billion Catholics.
Prevost, 69, from Chicago, Illinois, is the first ever pope from the United States. He will be known as Leo XIV.
I think I must have a buck somewhere that says President Trump will claim credit for Prevost’s election. Sigh.
