Sounds like you are connecting to the system Python and the ancient 
version of Tk (8.5) that ships with macOS and is seriously broken. I 
assume your installation of Python connects with something more modern 
(8.6.12 is the current version). You may want to check your path in the 
automator script to make sure you are using the correction version of 
Python.
