Now We Know the Real Reason Biden Wanted to Take Italy Trip, and It Is Not 'Solace' From Pope Francis

During President Joe Biden’s four years in office, there has been a pattern of his initial statements and deeds being interpreted differently in the following hours and days, sometimes resulting in a modified White House transcript or unclear explanations from Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre.

Originally, the trip’s purpose, later canceled, was explained by Biden’s staff as a discussion on world peace between President Biden and the Pontiff. Subsequently, reports suggested a more personal motive for the visit: seeking solace and “relief.” It raises questions as to what kind of relief the President was seeking.

As Arama highlighted, the provided justifications lack coherence. Why would a man who asserts his moral standing and innocence require solace from the Pope?



As recently as Wednesday morning, the trip was still on the schedule, with Biden and his wife set to leave immediately after late President Jimmy Carter’ funeral in D.C. for Rome. But as RedState’s Susie Moore shared in a follow-up, it was scrapped completely.

He was scheduled to leave for Rome, Italy, following Carter’s funeral but has now canceled that trip, purportedly due to the ongoing wildfires in L.A.
