Yesterday, on the 6th of November 2024 at 2:24 EST, Mr. Donald Trump was officially predicted to be the President of the United States for the third time (2016, 2020 and 2024.)

Perhaps the only reason that a true Catholic with a good will and a functioning intellect would fear coming to the same conclusion on the papacy as Archbishop Viganó did would be the indefectibility of the Catholic Church. Fr. John Hardon SJ explains that indefectibility essentially promises that the Catholic Church "will always remain the institution of salvation, founded by Christ.
