The Pope chastised Donald Trump and Kamala Harris, advising American Catholics to “choose the lesser evil”, reports Sky.
On his Friday journey from Singapore to Rome, Pope Francis began his unexpected meddling in the US election.
He called Vice President Harris’s support for abortion rights “assassination” and called President Trump’s proposal to deport millions of immigrants a “grave” sin.
Then, in November, when American Catholics went to the polls, he urged them to “choose the lesser evil”, reports Sky.
He didn’t go into more detail.
Following a 12-day visit to Southeast Asia and Oceania, the Pope was addressing.
He did not mention Ms. Harris or Mr. Trump by name in his speech; instead, he made specific references to their genders and views. Nevertheless, he did advocate for Catholics to vote.
The 87-year-old said: “Not voting is ugly. It is not good. You must vote. You must choose the lesser evil. Who is the lesser evil? That lady, or that gentleman? I don’t know,” reports Sky.
He added: “Both are against life, be it the one that kicks out migrants, or the one that kills children,” reports Sky.
