In response to the news of Pope Francis’ death, Schlossberg tweeted, “Okay JD killed the pope,” a comment that quickly went viral and drew widespread criticism across social media platforms.

Critics argued that someone with such a public profile, and with ties to a family historically respected for its devotion to public service and faith, should have exercised greater care and thoughtfulness in his public statements.
