Admittedly the competition for that title is brisk, but this gentleman is definitely in the running:
LEXINGTON, Kentucky, August 10, 2020 (LifeSiteNews) – Bishop John Stowe said President Donald Trump, the first sitting president to speak at the annual March for Life in the nation’s capital, “is so much anti-life.”
Stowe also suggested he wants to change Catholic teaching on the family to accommodate homosexuality and gender ideology.
Stowe was appointed bishop of Lexington, Kentucky, by Pope Francis in 2015.
Taking part in a webinar at the end of July, Stowe said, “For this president to call himself pro-life, and for anybody to back him because of claims of being pro-life, is almost willful ignorance. He is so much anti-life because he is only concerned about himself, and he gives us every, every, every indication of that.”
The webinar was organized by the International Catholic Movement for Intellectual and Cultural Affairs, which says it focuses on “Democracy, Migration, the Future of the Church, Dialogue and Peace.”
While Stowe did not further comment on what he views as Trump’s narcissism, he did offer his own understanding of what being “pro-life” actually means.
“Yes, we have to be concerned for the unborn children,” he admitted at one point. “It’s foundational for us, but it’s all connected.” But in that that context, Stowe said “our understanding of pro-life has to be the vision that was described as the seamless garment vision.”

Bishop John Stowe is “Pope” Francis Kamala Harris.
In “The Day is Now Far Spent” Card Sarah says, “if you’re upset that your priest or bishop isn’t a saint, be a saint for them. Get down on your knees…”
That’s really the only way I can have any hope in the Church these days.
Amen MikeS.
As for Stowe, he is clearly in the “top” echelon of, well, unfortunate choices for the episcopacy, (witness both the above-described incident and his instant throwing under the bus of Nick Sandmann et al.) However, it would be difficult to surpass Cardinal Cupich for the title of “most unfortunate papal appointment ever.”
THIS is what the previous post was about:

Remember: everything before a “but” is irrelevant.
Instead of worrying about Trump, the Bishop’s time would be better spent going about his diocese offering prayers of blessing and protection for his people.
Because as the post immediately above shows, this world abounds in evil spirits prowling about seeking the ruin of souls.
Best Bishop in the Country?
