The Washington Examiner‘s Peter Laffin suggested the late Pope Francis did not fit into the American left-right political paradigm after funeral services for Francis were held in Vatican City Saturday.

Francis’s funeral mass gathered world leaders, including President Donald Trump, to St. Peter’s Square to honor the late pontiff commonly referred to as “the people’s Pope.” Laffin joined C-SPAN’s Washington Journal Saturday morning shortly after the funeral mass ended at the Vatican was asked about the Washington Examiner editorial “Pope Francis defied easy political categorization.”
