US Catholics Lobby for Conservative Pope | JQJO

Wealthy US conservative Catholics are actively lobbying the College of Cardinals before the papal conclave to influence the selection of Pope Francis' successor. Groups like the Papal Foundation and the Napa Institute, with connections to figures like Cardinal Timothy Dolan and President Trump, are hosting lavish events and pledging significant donations. While their efforts aim to sway the election towards a more conservative candidate, the outcome remains uncertain, given Pope Francis' substantial influence on the composition of the electorate.
