Pope Francis, center, didn't support either former President Donald Trump, left, or Vice President Kamala Harris, but he threw out a challenge for voters
In more than a decade since taking over as head of the Catholic Church, Pope Francis has left little doubt about his preferences in American politics
Even in the face of the Democratic Party’s unflinching dogma promoting abortion — a procedure Catholic theology considers equivalent to murder — he has made his distaste for conservatives clear.
But in cautiously weighing in on the U.S. presidential election Friday, the pope exercised a kind of ambiguity that’s unlikely to please either side, but might give millions of voters something to think about — especially those on the left.
According to CBS News, Francis was asked during an in-flight interview how he would advise American voters to choose between Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris — an abortion rights extremist — and former President Donald Trump and his vows to deport illegal immigrants.
Francis drew a moral equivalency between the two — at least going by the CBS report.
“They are both against life — the one who throws away migrants and the one who kills children,” he said.
“One must choose the lesser of two evils,” he said. “Who is the lesser of two evils, that lady or that gentleman, I do not know.”

Why listen to Satan’s servant?
As a Catholic I say Francis is a disappointing Marxist or at least socialist
Ping
The difference IMHO is death is permanent but some deported may make their way back in if they follow the LEGAL process.
“...the one who throws away migrants...”
Yet another blatant lie from one who supposedly represents the Christian religion. I suspect that, on Judgement Day for Francis, Jesus will tell him something like.... “I know you only too well, and none of what I know is good”.
He left out one thing. You also have a candidate that let over 300,000 children into the country that can’t
be found They are probably in sex trafficking. The other candidate wants to stop it. There is no lesser of 2 evils there, unless you are a soulless Marxist.
No migrants are being thrown away. Bold face lie.
I hope Satan calls antipope Bergolio home soon to hell.
Yup- except for Easter Sunday, i have not been to mass in over two years. This despite attending mass 99% of the weekends the prior 55 years, even going to mass by myself as a kid and later in life going to mass when i was on vacation. Our Monsignor even called two weeks ago to make sure i was okay.
And i have no regrets- i pray every single day but i refuse to support this POS hypocrite.
I think that you are giving him too much credit. Bergolio (spit) is a filthy communist and a pagan.
Notice this hypocritical POS never demands his home nation of Argentina open their borders to illegals, never demands Vatican City open their borders to illegals, and never admonishes the leaders of the countries where the illegals are fleeing from, demanding they stop oppressing their citizens....
The pope is, of course, the spiritual leader of a great Christian religion. And as such, he is supposed to concentrate on bringing souls to Christ.
Francis has obviously decided to be a secular nag instead. Embrace the green agenda. Welcome illegal immigrants. Etc.
>> Yet another blatant lie from one who supposedly represents the Christian religion.
Po-po does NOT represent the Christian religion.
Po-po works for his father, the father of lies (aka satan)
“Notice this hypocritical POS never demands his home nation of Argentina open their borders to illegals, never demands Vatican City open their borders to illegals, and never admonishes the leaders of the countries where the illegals are fleeing from, demanding they stop oppressing their citizens....”
Oh heavens no. This fake pope never ever denigrates the communists, either. He never mentions the ‘reason why’ the migrants are flocking to the USA.... because of the evil of those nations’ leaders. Instead he points to the evil, lesser or otherwise, of Trump and Harris, here in the US. A true anti-America globalist stooge and tool of satan, this one. God will deal with him some day. Some day in the not too distant future. I am looking forward to that day.
This pope is a disaster. Killing babies is equivalent to having a country having a border?
When this guy takes down the walls to his palace and starts spending the church’s billions on illegals I *may* start listening to him. But I probably won’t.
This not Christian has left out a lot of things.
“As a Catholic I say Francis is a disappointing Marxist or at least socialist”
My wife is a life-long Catholic and she agrees with you. She is very disappointed in Pope Francis.
Starting to get the picture of why He is coming back? To reclaim his bride is what I read. Amazing.
Not sure why anyone should care what this subversive, woke, communist thinks.
The world’s Catholics need to kick this phony to the curb.
