"NEW YORK (The Borowitz Report)—As
Pope Francis makes his historic first visit to the United States,
millions of Americans are turning out to thank the Pontiff for
temporarily displacing Donald Trump from the news.
As
the Pope visits Washington, New York, and Philadelphia, people from
every walk of life are expressing profound gratitude that the news media
is offering non-stop coverage of Francis’s every move instead of Donald
Trump’s, if only for five days.
.... Even
Americans who would not normally be expected to take an interest in the
Pope’s visit, like agnostics and atheists, are wildly enthusiastic
about the role Francis has played in momentarily ousting Trump from the
headlines." Read more.
