In that context, it’s been difficult for most observers not to interpret the meeting with the pope as a show of support by Francis for Cupich in the dispute with Gomez, and thus, more broadly, for a more positive approach to the new Biden administration.
That interpretation is all the more seductive given that neither the Vatican nor Cupich have offered any explanation of the nature of the meeting, at least so far – leaving the clear impression that they’re content with the gloss pretty much everyone has given it, i.e., as a thumbs-up for the Cupich line.

No.
It is a not-very-subtle-message-at-all that “this man” (the current pope-in-name-only) is supporting and defending the pro-abortion, pro-socialism, anti-freedom/pro-Communist international governments over faith, freedom, life, and liberty.
