A Kentucky bishop has claimed Donald Trump cannot be pro-life, because he is “only concerned about himself”.
Reverend John Stowe, the Lexington Diocese Bishop in Kentucky, questioned the president’s stance on abortion during a Facebook Live panel with Catholic organisation Pax Ramona.
“For this president to call himself pro-life, and for anybody to back him because of claims of being pro-life, is almost willful ignorance,” the reverend said when asked about the church’s role in November’s presidential election.
“He is so much anti-life because he is only concerned about himself, and he gives us every, every, every indication of that,” Mr Stowe added.
During an interview with The World Over on 23 June, the president criticised presumptive Democratic candidate Joe Biden for his stance on abortion, while he claimed that he is pro-life.
“I’m pro-life; he’s not, and the Democrats-look who he’s putting on the court,” he said. “I’m pro-life. The Democrats aren’t. Nobody can say that Biden is. Look at his stance over the years.”
