In November, Marjorie Taylor Greene criticized Dan Crenshaw, a war veteran and Navy Seal, for having a
“loser mindset,” after he tweeted that Americans should “accept the final results” of the 2020 election. She urged Republicans not to “back down,” which was the same advice she gave to
Rep. Lauren Boebert after she was rightly criticized for her hateful Islamophobic comments about Rep. Ilhan Omar, which resulted in Omar receiving death threats.
Greene believes that “President Trump has fought for us, we have to fight for him.” And that means fighting for his supporters, violent insurrectionists who overtook the U.S. Capitol, resulting in the deaths of five people including a police officer. On Monday, Greene, who has been removed from committees for her rants about Jewish space lasers and more, held a press conference bemoaning what she considers to be the oppressive treatment of Jan 6. prisoners at D.C.’s detention facilities.
Backing her there was a confederacy of dunces including Gaetz, Gohmert, and Gosar, who was recently stripped of his committee assignments after posting a violent anime showing him killing Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. These clowns couldn’t bother to honor the brave Capitol Hill police officers who saved and defended their colleagues, or complain about the cruel detention of Guantanamo Bay prisoners and individuals in solitary confinement, but for a radicalized cult willing to overturn an election? They ride or die.
But if they’re really sober, they’ll get out now. Greene doubled down on Steve Bannon’s podcast, declaring that hateful politicians like her and Boebert represent the “base” of the GOP now, not the fringe. For once, I completely agree with this crazy person. The modern GOP is a radicalized, weaponized death cult that believes in the “deep state,” QAnon, the Big Lie, the Replacement theory, and is against vaccine and mask mandates since it’s “my body, my rights” but has no issue at all with overturning
Roe v. Wade, promoting voter suppression, and canceling elections when their preferred candidates don’t win.
