The pope appoints a flaming leftist to lead the Washington, D.C. archdiocese

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

50% : Standards are different for Republicans who want rule of law, and Democrats who promote abortion.
49% : So it definitely came about because of President Trump's victory, as the passage reads, a long period of battling-bishop contention, until reality set in that Trump was taking the White House.
45% : A tweet from the pope's official biographer, who is close to him, suggests that, actually, the pope did take sides:Did the pope put a notable pro-lifer in that slot so close to the White House, the press corps, the bully pulpit to the country, when Joe Biden took office, and got busy jailing pro-lifers, letting churches burn, siccing the FBI on Latin Mass enthusiasts, prosecuting the Little Sisters of the Poor for not wanting to buy abortion insurance, bankrolling and promoting abortion around the world, shoveling untold cash to Planned Parenthood, and trying to halt conscience exceptions for medical personnel who did not want to perform the grisly act of abortion; helping to birth some babies and save the lives of some, while ripping others out of wombs in shreds or screaming, cutting them up and selling them for spare parts, as all in a day's work?Of course he didn't.
44% : He was big on COVID lockdowns, shutting down churches and demanding all parishioners, regardless of their tolerance for vaccines, or their opposition to using a vaccine derived from the cells of aborted babies, to be vaccinated for COVID before coming to Mass.McElroy's also in favor of open borders, a Trump platform cornerstone, which provides billions in taxpayer cash to illegal immigration advocates such as Catholic Charities., He was almost certainly selected for this slot to browbeat Trump from the pulpit when the mass deportations of illegal border crossers start, if not excommunicate J.D. Vance and much of the Supreme Court.
38% : However, in the weeks following the presidential election result, which saw Donald Trump reelected to the White House, Francis agreed to revisit McElroy's candidacy.
33% : So he will be there to point the bony finger at Trump over illegal immigration, even as Catholic Charities rakes in millions from the feds to enable illegal immigrants, many of whom go on to rape and murder Americans.
27% : Why he's doing that here, and not in, say, Argentina, where the leader the Catholics elected there is even stronger an antisocialist than Trump.
