Ummm....incorrect, but I'd love to see the quote. If you can't, then it's probably just another drunken illusion of yours.

Meanwhile, back to the OP for those who aren't obsessed with me; those who bet on Robert Prevost to be Pope cashed in with 50 to 1 odds if not greater.

Robert Francis Prevost came out of nowhere to take the crown. The Chicago native and Villanova grad will be the next Pope. At least two bettors cashed in with gambling wins of more than $50,000.
Less than 2% of bets were placed on Prevost. He held odds close to 50/1 at a number of sportsbooks.

Prevost appears to have been an active user of Twitter, now known as X, since 2011. The first tweets from the account @drprevost date back to the reign of Pope Benedict XVI and include rather mundane updates like "In Rome, Council meetings."
But Prevost has also used the platform to criticize Donald Trump and his administrations' approach to immigration policy. In 2015, Prevost tweeted an article critical of then-candidate Trump's "problematic" "anti-immigrant rhetoric."
In a recent February 2025 post, which has gone viral since Prevost's elevation, he wrote that Vice President J.D. Vance - a Catholic convert in adulthood - was "wrong" about his attempts to find a theological justification for the administration's treatment of migrants. "Jesus doesn't ask us to rank our love for others," Prevost wrote. (He added a second post critical of Vance's misunderstanding of the doctrine of "ordo amoris.")
In his most recent post before entering Conclave, Prevost criticized Trump and Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele for making light of the deportation and detention of Kilmar Abrego Garcia. Prevost linked to an article from the website Catholic Standard comparing the plights and persecutions experienced by immigrant and refugee communities to the Passion of Jesus Christ.
The reaction from the MAGA right - which in recent years has also taken a liking to ultra-conservative Catholicism - was immediate and predictable.
"WOKE MARXIST POPE," wrote Laura Loomer - a far-right 9/11 conspiracy theorist who is close enough to Trump to advise him on national security staffing decisions. In another post, Loomer wrote that Prevost was "just another Marxist puppet in the Vatican," and that "Catholics don't have anything good to look forward to."
