The far-right congresswoman has increasingly broken ranks with the MAGA movement, leading even Donald Trump to wonder ‘What’s going on with Marjorie?’
Marjorie Taylor Greene has hit out at her fellow Republicans for “doing nothing” about rising food and healthcare costs in her latest breach with the Trump administration.
In an interview with the conservative broadcaster Real America’s Voice on Tuesday, the Georgia congresswoman warned that letting Joe Biden’s Affordable Care Act subsidies expire at the end of the year would “crush” Americans’ finances.
Those subsidies are now at the heart of a government shutdown that’s lasted 15 days and counting. Senate Democrats are demanding the subsidies be extended as a condition of reopening the government while Republicans are refusing to budge.
The real reverse fetterman
The more I hear from this woman, the more I feel like there might actually be a decent heart deep down inside who wants to better her country, but is being hindered by an incredibly stupid brain that is calling the shots.
I hope that’s true. The cynic in me thinks she’s playing the long game and plans to make a presidental run, which means breaking away from MAGA to be more palatable to reublican, neoliberal, and independent voters. The cynic in me also thinks that she’s pissed she didn’t get a cabinet spot, so she’s breaking with the party to throw a metaphoric tantrum. All speculation; I really hope she’s come to her senses.
Because he lied to get elected, MTG. That’s why.
Why would they? They don’t care and never have.
Shit has hit the fan when normal Americans agree with MTG. She used to love the Nazi’s, but I think she is seeing that she may also end up in prison for fascist crimes.
Yep, we have now reached the point in the clownworld timeline where Marjorie Taylor Green, the Jewish Space Lasers lady who did campaign ads by just shooting a physical representation of ‘socialism’ with a 50 cal anti materiel rifle… this woman is seemingly a ‘moderate Republican’, a ‘voice of reason’ within the party, to use the mainstream political vernacular of roughly 10 years ago.
Go back 10 years, and if you told anyone that anything like this was even possible, much less probable, likely, you would be called insane.
And that’s not a hypothetical, because I did, and I was.
What that shows you is how immensely brainwashed and politically illiterate and/or disingenuous almost everyone, on all sides, was, institutional or citizen, political news junkie / official wonk or couldn’t care less.
Yay
American Exceptionalism is now well and truly dead.
I mean, it was really never a thing.
List of American achievements that made them a super power:
- Didn’t get their country blown to sit during WWII
end list
I mean ‘American Exceptionalism’ not as being literally true in any sense, I mean it in the actual Political Science / Sociological sense of attempting to differentiate various democracies and their behaviors from each other.
‘American Exceptionalism’ is … or was, basically our national ethos, a kind of shared, secular religions, a subtext that was basically always present, referred back to often, but not as often just directly stated.
We did, for quite a long time, just quite arrogantly think we were special, basically magically so, immune from or indifferent to many things that all societies have to grapple with.
So, now our core cultural identity has been revealed to be entirely bullshit, and as a result, basically everyone is having a psychotic break / existential crisis / nihlistic withdrawal …all the time.
But anyway, yes, I totally agree with you that in the 20th century, it really all does just boil down to not having our own territory being literally blown to oblivion in WW2, and then misinterpreting that obviously leading to roughly one generation of massively abnormal economic gains… as proof that we are just magically amazing, the ‘indespensible nation’ that was leading the world to the ‘end of history’, all that bullshit.
Only to be replaced by an even more extreme version of American Superiority Complex.
Closely followed by American Victim Complex.
I think at this point its just American Schizophrenia:
Anytime you go outside, assume anyone or everyone could be schizophrenic, and yeah that’s basically America right now.
Followed by American Pyscho
Please, please let her start a new party and fuck shit up for the GOP in the midterms cause that would be so funny
She’s a hateful…hateful…person. But she’s not stupid.
She knows that when the public turns on Trump/Maga, they’ll likely be reactionary and look to his most vocal detractors for leadership. She wants in on that when the orange fuckwit finally eats the last burger that clogs his aorta for the last time.
That’s Gavin Newsom’s play as well. Setting themselves up to the be faces of a post Trump America by being as vocal as possible now, banking on the hope that with Trump gone, MAGA will devolve into internecine chaos followed by nuremberg trials for Miller, Vance, Bondi and the entire gang of chucklefucks.
Vance and Miller on the other handing, are on every news station in America hoping to be the face of MAGA itself, hoping that they have the rizz to wrangle the movement and prevent the above mentioned internecine chaos.
Thank fuck that when you think of lacking rizz JD Vance and Steven Miller spring immediately to mind
WTF has gotten into her lately? The world is upside down. Nothing makes sense anymore!
did she have some kind of epiphany? or just getting bullied by her GOP colleagues for being a woman, and now she’s lashing out?
either way, i wouldn’t complain about more of this from more republicans
She saw working class white christians being harmed while “doing nothing wrong”. She has some version of morals and a soul she’s just racist.
she’s just racist
pretty sure that’s a prerequisite for just the privilege of calling yourself republican. yes, black republicans hate black people too
Wtf did she think was going to happen? She helped create a monster that she can’t control. The Stupid America she wanted created the exact conditions for this.
We know that brain damage decreases empathy, what causes the opposite? What happened to her? There’s no way that she figured out that she’ll be out of a job because she’s a woman.
Setting up a bid for presidency 👍
Imo, probably getting paid by Elon to bail on the Republicans to join his America.party or whatever. I have a hard time believing she’s acting in good faith.
Maybe someone slipped her some MDMA.
Or mushrooms. They expand the mind.
Maybe she had a visit from some ghosts?
It’s really scaring me that she’s starting to say things that make sense now. Did she get back on her meds or something??
Maybe this is what happens when RFK Jr.'s brain worms leave the brain. My liberal ass is besides myself siding with her lately.
Anything to get her face on TV and try to stay relevant.
