Marjorie Taylor Greene on Bill Maher this weekend - surprisingly impressive

Anonymous
This is who you’re propping up? She’s trash. Will always be trash. She’s attaching herself to the Epstein victims because she desperately wants to be one of them. As sick as it is, she wants the attention. She wants to be part of the strong, articulate, pretty girl club.

Won't have a chance. AIPAC and the Zionists hate for being America first as opposed to Israel first.

Happy to see her taking her job seriously and acting like an adult.

+1

I am grateful and impressed that she has asked for the release of the Epstein files and generally seems unafraid of Trump unlike the rest of the spineless cowards.

However...

*she “didn’t even know the Rothschilds were Jewish”
*she talked about demons and aliens
*and she won't actually ctiticize Trump

So, no, I am not ready to vote for her yet

Yes! I was just coming to post this! I will never forget how she verbally harassed a bunch of teen survivors of the Parkland, FL school shooting. I don't care how rational she sounds now--she has a mean and nasty streak and she can't make us unsee that.

Marjorie Tayler Greene is very representative of a fairly large segment of the American electorate. They're not all Trump cult members. They tend to be pretty decent people in small town America who hate and distrust the Establishment. It's been a mistake for progressives to disdain these "white" people. There are a lot of issues where there's a lot of commonality. But Democrats always approach small town white folks with such hate and dismissiveness. And these folks aren't idiots. They sense how much Democrats dislike them. So that's a huge swath of America that Democrats just aren't reaching these days. And so Democrats are surprised when MTG says something sensible. But she does speak for a lot of people that Democrats don't listen to.

I think she’s upset she’s not one of his glamour girls anymore like Bondi, Noem and Leavitt.

What is so "representative" about her? Her loudmouthed, combative, potty-mouthed, uncouth ways? Or her belief in multiple crazy conspiracy theories**? I know people in "small town America" and they're nothing like her.

**Some of the conspiracy theories promoted by Marjorie Taylor Greene include:
*QAnon: Greene was an early and prominent supporter of this far-right conspiracy theory.
*Weather Modification: She has repeatedly promoted the baseless theory that unspecified groups can control the weather and cause natural disasters using technology, sometimes linked to antisemitic tropes like "Jewish space lasers".
*9/11: Greene has expressed the false claim that a plane did not crash into the Pentagon.
School Shootings: She has suggested the Parkland, Florida, school shooting was a "false flag" operation.
*Frazzledrip: Greene engaged with this disturbing and baseless theory.
*The "Clinton Kill List": She has peddled the debunked "Clinton Body Count" conspiracy theory.
*Ruth Bader Ginsburg: Greene suggested the late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg had been replaced by a body double.
*Barack Obama: She has claimed former President Barack Obama is a "secret Muslim".

Well, if she is representative of this group of people, I'd say the disdain is WELL EARNED. You don't get to spout off hateful things at people and get a pass. I don't care if you are small town or white or whatever. You will be judged by what you say and do. So if you scapegoat immigrants or or perpetuate RWNJ lies etc etc etc, people will think poorly of you.

I think she is probably a survivor of sexual assault or harassment, identifies particularly with the Epstein victims, and just so happens to be on the right side of an issue for once. Doesn't erase all the other ridiculous and/or offensive things she has said and done.

People really are just idiots and too easy to manipulate. She did 1 good interview. Look at her history. You cannot forgive it all after just a day. I would say the same thing about someone opposite: if a liberal politician with a standup public record of staunch righteousness suddenly had a day where they said the wrong things, they get my benefit of the doubt.

And this is exactly how Trump won and how our political system is made up of grossness. It is so easy to get the public to throw your way by a few sound bites - they want to believe what they want to believe v seeing reality.

Ugh.

Are you joking or high?

Don’t trust this woman farther than you can throw her bleach blonde, bad built, butch body.

I will never forget how verbally abusive, antisemitic and offensive she used to be.

And now, listening to her calm and rational demeanor, I am even more incensed, because if she was capable of reason from the get-go, then there is no excuse, none at all, for her past behavior.
