The Argentinean insider blog Caminante Wanderer says in the post "Coadjutor bishop for Rome, an absurd hypothesis?" that Francis's "il coccolato, the pontiff's darling" Cardinal Víctor Fernández is "whisper[ing] the idea of a coadjutor into the weakened pontifical ears" which seemingly means he could have the "right of succession" to Francis in Rome:
One more Peronist mischief. And some dare to name that curate: Tucho Fernández. That is, Tucho would be official vice-pope, and de facto pope. He is nonsense!, I said. Yes, a slightly more serious nonsense than having named that same person prefect of the Doctrine of the Faith dicastery.
This is nothing more than an absurd hypothesis but one that, paradoxically, has a certain logic within the facts we are seeing and the mind of Pope Francis. His bronchitis is proving more stubborn than usual and when it disappears, if it disappears, another illness and another will come, which will finally take him to the grave. Bergoglio knows, as those around him know, that his end is near; He knows that he is weak and tired, and he knows that the vultures and the vultures are already flying in circles over Santa Marta because they smell a corpse. He also knows that it will be in those weeks or months prior to his death when those who dispute his succession will begin to position themselves and he, in his weakness, will not be able to do much to scare them away. And that is why in recent times his close circle has become increasingly narrower and now only Jesuits and Argentines surround him, those whom he believes he can trust.
Let's bring the magnifying glass closer. Cardinal Víctor Fernández was baptized at the beginning of the pontificate as il coccolato , the pontiff's darling, and he is becoming more and more pampered. Bergoglio blindly trusts him and that is the reason why he has committed, and continues to commit, strategic errors as gross as the expulsion of Bishop Strickland from his diocese and Cardinal Burke from his apartment, and last week added the ban Bishop Strickland, by pontifical imperium , to celebrate mass in his former diocese. The progressives are furious because in a short time they have lost several squares thanks to Tucho's clumsiness; The conservatives smile with pleasure, and it would not be strange if they put a few more banana peels in the coccolato 's path so that he, and Bergoglio himself, continues to stumble. The fool's greed for power and notoriety is incalculable, and for that reason it would not be strange if it were Cardinal Fernández who whispered the idea of a coadjutor into the weakened pontifical ears.
But in addition to the probable hand of Tucho, there are also the Jesuits. Never in the history of the Church has a Pope had a coadjutor bishop. But let's be honest: this hypothetical rarity would be of the same caliber as the figure of “Pope Emeritus” that Benedict XVI pulled out of the hat. I do not know the canonical implications that he would have, and I suppose that he would raise a lot of dust, but the truth is that behind it is an SJ: Cardinal Gianfranco Ghirlanda, head canonist of the Argentine pontiff and author of the legal assembly of all his traps. We already reported in this blog about the project that was being prepared to change the rules of the conclave - in which lay people would also participate - and of the previous general congregations, which would be prohibited to older cardinals.
Pray an Our Father now for reparation for the sins committed because of Francis’s Amoris Laetitia.
Pray an Our Father now for the restoration of the Church as well as the Triumph of the Kingdom of the Sacred Heart and the Immaculate Heart of Mary.
Stop for a moment of silence, ask Jesus Christ what He wants you to do now and next. In this silence remember God, Father, Son and Holy Ghost – Three Divine Persons yet One God, has an ordered universe where you can know truth and falsehood as well as never forget that He wants you to have eternal happiness with Him as his son or daughter by grace. Make this a practice. By doing this you are doing more good than reading anything here or anywhere else on the Internet.
Francis Notes:
– Doctor of the Church St. Francis de Sales totally confirmed beyond any doubt the possibility of a heretical pope and what must be done by the Church in such a situation:
“[T]he Pope… WHEN he is EXPLICITLY a heretic, he falls ipso facto from his dignity and out of the Church, and the Church MUST either deprive him, or, as some say, declare him deprived, of his Apostolic See.”
(The Catholic Controversy, by St. Francis de Sales, Pages 305-306)
Saint Robert Bellarmine, also, said “the Pope heretic is not deposed ipso facto, but must be declared deposed by the Church.”

The AAS guidelines explicitly allows “sexually active adulterous couples facing ‘complex circumstances’ to ‘access the sacraments of Reconciliation and the Eucharist.'”
– On February 2018, in Rorate Caeli, Catholic theologian Dr. John Lamont:
“The AAS statement… establishes that Pope Francis in Amoris Laetitia has affirmed propositions that are heretical in the strict sense.”
– On December 2, 2017, Bishop Rene Gracida:
“Francis’ heterodoxy is now official. He has published his letter to the Argentina bishops in Acta Apostlica Series making those letters magisterial documents.”
Pray an Our Father now for the restoration of the Church by the bishops by the grace of God.

What is needed right now to save America from those who would destroy our God given rights is to pray at home or in church and if called to even go to outdoor prayer rallies in every town and city across the United States for God to pour out His grace on our country to save us from those who would use a Reichstag Fire-like incident to destroy our civil liberties.

Comments
"The Bishop of the Church of Rome, in whom the Munus granted by the Lord in a singular way to Peter, the first of the Apostles, to be transmitted to his successors, remains, is the head of the College of Bishops, Vicar of Christ and Pastor of the universal Church in this world; who, consequently, by reason of his office, enjoys in the Church ordinary, supreme, full, immediate, and universal power, which he can always exercise freely."
We can see above that it is a singular gift to be Pope, that is, only for a canonically elected candidate and that cannot be divided to another.
And about a totally impeded Roman Seat is no circus show because it is further on (335):
"During the vacancy or total impediment of the Roman See, nothing is to be innovated in the government of the universal Church; the special laws formulated for such circumstances are to be observed."
The "special laws formulated" is none other than the Universi Dominici Gregis formulated by Pope John Paul II and later reformulated by Benedict XVI.
