Monday

--which starts a mere hour before his big shindig and will undoubtedly have lots of streaming and news attention on it as well, given it is his first and has been sold out since 15 minutes after announcement. Yes, the Pope will only appear via video, but it is still going to get its share of attention.

Religious or no, this is a good counter to Trump's BS and I'd bet Leo will call him out, even if only by his actions and not by name.
