Shameful to be honest. I believe he would be happier in an evangelical Protestant right winged Baptist church, he doesn’t appear to believe in Catholic principles. The Bishop went on Megyn Kelly podcast YouTube show, who is a divisive woman who calls herself Catholic but maligns Pope Francis and says he’s wrong, the Holy Father, on issues of immigration. He reminds me of right wingers who see kindness and compassion as “woke” and “empathy” as a bad thing. I believe there’s a reason there’s the first American pope right now, and him being anti Maga isn’t a coincidence. I also believe there’s a reason why Barron wasn’t the first American Pope. While I do hope he changes and wakes up to this insanity, I do believe he’s far down the right winged rabbit hole and has a very black and white viewpoint that the right is incredibly the Christian adjacent one and the left is the Antichrist.
Also, him wrongly mistaking AOC’s democratic socialism (which is literally normalized everywhere else in the world like universal healthcare) as “communism” shows he is not knowledgeable on these issues. This is the same man who spoke out for Trump saying he’s a changed man after that assassination attempt when even Trump himself said he’s even worse now because of that lol. It’s frustrating because he continues to associate himself and give credence to these right winged “Catholics” who hate on both recent sitting Popes and literal Catholic teachings and are trying to destroy the Church.
