Former Apprentice contestant ranks Trump next to Mother Teresa on women's issues

Former “Apprentice” contestant Tana Goertz said in recent interview that only Mother Teresa comes to mind when she thinks of who has done more for women than President.

In an brief interview with one of CBS News’ 2020 campaign reporters, Adam Brewster, Goertz was asked about how the Trump campaign can regain some of the support from female voters who previously voted for the president in 2016 and then Iowa Rep. Cindy Axne (D), who bested then-incumbent GOP Rep. David Young in 2018.

“If Donald Trump was running we would have never lost anything. So, there’s different candidates running that don’t have the power that Donald Trump has and the pull, so I can’t speak for why – that’s kind of, that one’s like comparing apples and oranges,” said Goertz, who currently works a senior employee for the Trump campaign in Iowa, according to the Rolling Stone.

“So, let’s move beyond that because Cindy Axne, you know, she won,” Goertz said before laughingly asking the reporter to “leave that out” after a brief pause.

Unwittingly, more right than wrong. Mother Teresa was a horrible person.

She also took money from dictators who stole it from their citizens. Again, very much like Trump.

It amazes me (kind-of-not-really... actually really-not-at-all) that people haven't figured out the whole Mother Teresa whitewash. :le sigh:

on women's issues. But, like Trump, she took in many millions of $$ yet, thus far there is no accounting and the people and her order in Calcutta continue to suffer.

These Trumpsters really aren't good at comparisons in the name of "justification" and defense, are they?

Mother Teresa was an evil woman. She is wrongly worshiped. People have no idea as to what she really was about or what she did. I won't go on, but read Christopher Hitchens's book or the many articles on her.
