Vice President JD Vance was one of the last visitors Pope Francis had in the last few hours of his life, as he died on Monday, after meeting JD Vance on Easter Sunday. Vance has been turned into a meme after this coincidence, while his gesture, his yellow tie and his last words to the Pope have come on the radar. The Pope was a staunch critic of the Donald Trump administration, its deportation, but JD Vance made it a point to pay a visit to the Pope. JD Vance wore a yellow tie for his meeting, which apparently is believed to be a symbol of optimism, indicating that JD Vance went to the Pope with an open heart, putting their past disagreements behind.
Vance was not accompanied by his wife or children. “I know you have not been feeling great but it’s good to see you in better health,” these were the last words that Vance told the Pope. “Thank you for seeing me.”
“I pray for you every day,” Vance said as he bid Francis farewell. “God bless you.” Vance's motorcade was on Vatican territory for 17 minutes. The vice president later joined his family for Easter Mass at St. Paul Outside the Walls, one of the four pontifical basilicas in Rome.
Vance who converted to Catholicism in 2019 was at the receiving end after the Vatican announced the Pope's death. Some attacks were just for fun, while some came from those who really believe Vance to be anti-Christian. Some pointed out how Vance lied about seeing Pope in 'better health' and hours after that, the Pope died. Social media users commented that he was not supposed to say so out of courtesy when he met the Pope.
Right-wing writer Ann Coulter congratulated JD Vance and wrote 'Good work, JD' soon after Pope's death providing no explanation for her message. GOP Rep Marjorie Taylor Greene posted a cryptic message on X, making it look like she was celebrating the death.
Comedian Jimmy Kimmel made fun of JD Vance and said he was bad at praying as well. "I’m calling it, @JDVance
is a demon. He goes to Myanmar, and there’s a massive earthquake. Next, he visits the Pope, and he dies almost immediately. Today, he goes to India, and nearly 30 people die in terrorist attack. Question is, can we get him to visit the Kremlin?" one user wrote.
