Secretary of State Marco Rubio put up a good performance with the press on Tuesday. He was clear and authoritative about the Iran conflict, believing the terror state’s economy is in big trouble.
Hope he’s right.
On Thursday, Rubio has an official meeting with Pope Leo, who has emerged as a problem for the Trump administration.
Because the Pope is a spiritual missionary, he is not going to explain geopolitics to anyone. That frustrates President Trump, who believes the Pontiff does not understand world conflict. Mr. Trump fervently thinks that he is saving lives by neutralizing Iran. Apparently, the Pope does not share that vision.
So it might be up to Secretary Rubio to bring the men together. Rubio is Catholic and respects the church. Good start. I believe there is room for detente here.
Many don’t care, but America needs supporters right now. Pope Leo’s softening on the danger of Iran would help this country.
Let’s pray that Marco can pull it off.
See you this evening for the No Spin News.
