After meeting with Muslim leaders in Saudi Arabia and visiting sacred sites in Jerusalem, President Donald Trump's tour of world religions concluded Wednesday at the Vatican, the Catholic Church's holy headquarters.
There, at the Apostolic Palace, Trump met with Pope Francis -- finally.
It's a meeting millions have been waiting for, an encounter between two of the world's most intriguing and complex characters: The holy man in white who preaches good news to the poor and the brash businessman in the dark suit who embodies American extravagance.
After months of talking -- and tweeting -- past one another, and a very public spat over international borders, the Pope and President met at last, with nary a barrier between them.
