He thought it was the seat of Catholic power and was driven to a frenzy.

Given the conservative drift of major institutions over the past year or so whoever they pick for the new Pope is probably less likely to excommunicate him
We’ll see how it goes but Francis chose a supermajority of the current Cardinals. With the exception of Cardinal Pizzaballa, I don’t know any of their names, much less their views.
Cardinal Pizzaballa
That cannot be his real name.
Looks it up
Huh, TIL.
JD got over excited by how the pontiff choose to couch his words.
I don't know the why but the first thing I said when I found out was "Polonium".

Because he's evil. And the pope publicly gave him a lecture. Made him look smaller than he already did.
killed him to further the prophecy that this is the end times.
Because the pope deadnamed him.
James Donald Bowman is a massive cuck and deserves to be reminded off his biological father for as long as people in the USA can't choose which gender they prefer.

If you're in the vatican, what else is there to do?
He spoke Spanish
The flu of America*
Tap for spoiler
*Formerly known as influenza or Spanish Flu.
Because he didn't say "thank you" clearly
Couldn't hear the safe word through the ball gag.
I mean I don't think I know Vance killed him. See Trump can make stuff up why can't we.
Fancy papal couches that were unfuckable.
The pope told JD that no one in the tRump regime, or any other self-proclaimed christian in the USA was anything near being a christian. Per Matthew 25:40-45
Being anywhere in Trump's orbit speeds up your trajectory towards death like Matt Damon in Saving Private Ryan. Donald Trump is, essentially, a biological version of "The Machine" from The Princess Bride pushed to 50.
Since the pope was only secondarily contaminated, the process was slower, but he was already so close to death as it is.
Jealousy.
I THOUGHT this was FAKE NEWS but I'm seeing it All Over Facebook so it MUST be True that JD Vance KILLED the Pope!
-Republicans who Do Their Own Research and STILL Love Trump!
So a conclave power struggle is set off behind the scenes to try to install Cardinal Burke so that they have one less institution to get in the way
Everyone here seems to be in on something that I've missed.
Edit: I read a reuters article, I see he met with JD yesterday.
Well the Pope ghosted JD, so JD obviously ghosted the Pope.
Truth is, he wasn't trying to. Vance wanted to show off his zombie Jesus costume, but it turned out to be a killer costume!
(I just wanted to throw something in that isn't the same jokes everyone else is making)
What's a Nazi's favorite color smoke?
White smoke.
(For all y'all non Catholics, the vatican has white smoke to signal when they elect a new pope...and ya know...JD Vance is a nazi.)
It's all that white on white, he kinda looked like a couch. He wasn't trying to kill him, but the old man was frail and looked too much like a cushion.

I don't know, but he better have said thanks
JD Vance had FOXDIE
he threatened to release the video of him and cardinal wuerl spit roasting a luxury couch.
Clearly he visited India today to discuss a Hindu Nationalist takeover of America
The pope wouldn't let him ogle the holy see.
The pope's death was God's plan. God is the murderer. (Again)
