Choose Lesser Evil-Pope Francis Advice Catholic Voters As US Election Draws Near

Pope Francis has urged Catholic voters in the United States of America to “choose the lesser evil” between former President Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris.

The pontiff stated this during a press conference on Friday held from his papal airplane after a 12-day tour of Southeast Asia and Oceania.

The pope criticized Harris’ support of abortion rights as being an “assassination,” while he also chastised Trump, saying “not welcoming migrants is a sin.”

“You must choose the lesser evil.

“Who is the lesser evil? That lady, or that gentleman? I don’t know. Everyone, in conscience, [has to] think and do this,” hhe said.

The catholic leader also said not voting is ugly and is not good, stressing that people must vote.

However, the pope didn’t specify which candidate, if either, he personally prefers.

Harris had during last Tuesday’s presidential debate said that she wants to codify Roe v. Wade into law if elected.

Trump on his part also promised the largest mass deportation in American history of our country if elected.

Speaking on both abortion and deportation of illegal immigrants, the Pope said: “It is an assassination. On these things we must speak clearly. No ‘but’ or ‘however.”

“Not giving welcome to migrants is a sin. It is grave. Whether it is the one who is chasing away migrants, or the one who kills children, both are against life,” the Pope claimed.

In 2016, Trump had a spar with the pope after the church claimed that Trump’s plan to build a wall along the Mexican border was “not Christian.”

He also previously criticized President Joe Biden’s stance on abortion.

According to Fox News, there are more than 50 million Catholics in the U.S., including a sizable number of voters in swing states like Pennsylvania and Wisconsin.
