Honestly it looks like we've got a HNer quoting a journalist quoting a bishop quoting a cardinal.
The cardinal who said 'until America goes into political decline, there won't be an American pope' died in 2015 (i.e. before Trump's first term)
The bishop who quoted them does hold the post you mention - but they didn't originate the quote, they just quoted it.
