Trump Gets Third-Tier Seats at Pope’s Funeral
Despite his global prominence, Donald Trump’s seating at Pope Francis’ funeral may be further back than expected. Vatican protocol, gleaned from past papal funerals, suggests placement in at least the third row, behind numerous heads of state and monarchs. This contrasts sharply with Trump’s usual position of prominence. The seating arrangement will place foreign dignitaries in a block alongside the clergy. Official details from the Vatican remain pending.
