You can’t just blame “the institution” for how people voted.
Catholics by and large support Trump (anecdotally, my Catholic family seems split on him)
Exit polls showed that he won the overall Catholic vote by a double-digit margin on Election Day after losing that demographic to Joe Biden in 2020. - Source
Oh my gosh! The Catholic Church itself, unlike the Catholics in America, is an institution that wants to maintain its own power and independence, regardless of what fleeting dictator might be in charge. There’s nothing moral to it, it’s just the institution looking out for itself. They will long outlast Trump, so there’s no reason to give up power to him.
Something everyone should know about the Pope is that he is, in fact, Catholic. If you don’t agree with almost Catholic teachings, you aren’t going to love everything about them.

Conservative catholics have plenty of reason to not bow to Trump, and no real reason to. They know better than to hop on a sinking ship.
