Mother Theresa would not have been indicted on 90+ charges to begin with…

Having a spot of trouble even visualizing Mother Teresa paying off a consigliere to illegally coverup an adulterous affair with a porn star. …blame m’self for a lack of imagination (“just need to give that as a prompt to some image_AI”)

Rule 34 comrade, rule 34.

Setting aside the fact that Mother Theresa probably was no saint (except, I guess, literally), I do appreciate Trump framing this as a fait accompli, and trying to preemptively spin his loss.

That said, I am trying not to even think about the verdict until it comes in, and just keep myself on a very even keel, emotionally, so I’m mostly ignoring this.

“Beating Charges” implies getting away with a crime despite being clearly guilty.

Maybe not those exact charges but as you likely know Mother Teresa is a poor choice of person to use

Yeah, she was a piece of work. But that wasn’t her style.

I am aware she was no “saint,” as many often make her out to be.

Still, the difference between her morality ( or any lack thereof) and 45’s is as vast as the depths of space.

Agreed on all points, though for me i just couldn’t help but laugh at the level of irony in 45 picking her as an example

Literally the “best” person he could think of, and she wasn’t even that good of a person.

Right, because of all the cases he has, there’s oddly one where he’s never said a bad word against the judge, even when she (rarely) rules against him.

How very odd.

Which makes me wonder what he thinks he meant.

How exactly is the judge conflicted? And is “confliction” even a word?

Both of them are absolute monsters.

If even Mother Theresa couldn’t get off the evidence of guilt must be overwhelming.
