The whole premise of this is bullshit...Trump "not as interested in brawling" as he was in his first term?

No more 'conflict': NYT's Maggie Haberman flags Trump sign he wants end to fighting

Speaking to CNN’s Jake Tapper on Thursday, Haberman said Trump’s warm compliments for the new pope in a Truth Social post – where he said it was “a Great Honor for our Country” to have the first American pope, who he said he looks forward to meeting – was a shift in his previous tone toward the Vatican.

“I think that Trump is trying not to be in conflict with everyone as much as he was before,” Haberman said, noting the MAGA leader’s feud with Pope Francis dating back to the 2016 election.

“He has been much more respectful of the papacy, certainly since he went after the…previous pope, Pope Francis, for criticisms of Donald Trump,” Haberman, a long-time political reporter, said Thursday on CNN’s “The Lead with Jake Tapper.”
