Pope Francis on Friday described the choice US voters must make in the presidential election as one between the “lesser of two evils,” deeming former President Donald Trump’s anti-migrant policies and Vice President Kamala Harris’ support of abortion rights as both being “against life.”
“One must choose the lesser of two evils. Who is the lesser of two evils? That lady or that gentleman? I don’t know,” Francis said during a press conference on the papal plane, referring to Harris and Trump. “Everyone with a conscience should think on this and do it.”
He’s equating Trump’s anti-immigration policy with Harris’ pro-choice policy.
He’s completely ignoring everything else about Trump.
He’s not actually picking a side:

He sounds like Glenn Beck. “Who’s worse - Trump or Harris? I don’t know. I’m just asking questions…”
C’mon, I mean Harris isn’t perfect but the other guy has done a lot, lot, lot worse…
Ignoring the seriousness of Covid? Think how many died needlessly because of that. https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/trumps-policy-failures-have-exacted-a-heavy-toll-on-public-health1/
Even ignoring covid, how many died under his health policy (or lack thereof)? Possibly over 25k: https://www.hsph.harvard.edu/news/hsph-in-the-news/quantifying-health-coverage-losses-under-trump/
Heck, technically he’s not even anti-abortion! https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/trumps-abortion-stances-republicans-2024-gop-rcna147222
For anyone who is “pro-life” in terms of all human beings being and staying alive, I should think that backing Harris should be a no-brainer.
