Mother Teresa was a super fucked up individual, though. I'm not sure she's really suitable for use as a benchmark.

She rose to fame on the suffering of others. Trump and her have more in common than most would think.

She also took in who-knows-how-much in donations to charity claiming they would be used to help the stick and the poor, but instead just gave that money directly to the Vatican who proceeded to do fuck all to the benefit of anybody with it except themselves.

Oh but that sweet donation gave her a nice shiny sainthood post mortem.

Too bad I don't believe in hell so I could wish she would roast there. Instead the Church's PR made her name synonymous with selflessly caring for the poor.

It’s actually a pretty good analogy.

She was a huge hypocrite for telling suffering patients that pain brought them closer to god, while withholding pain medication and anesthetics that she then eagerly accepted when she took ill.

Trump is going to drain the swamp of criminals in the White House that are oppressing the American people.

Nuns in her order were forbidden from forming friendships with each other, and were transfered and punished if they showed warmth or spent time with each other.

This was for the obvious reason - having friends is the first step on the slippery slope to being gay.

Isolation and alienation are hallmarks of a controlling cult.
