Conservatives Quickly Turn Against “Idiot” Marjorie Taylor Greene
The Georgia Republican is fast falling out of favor for her opposition to the Ukraine aid bill.
Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene’s failed fight to end aid to Ukraine, and her sort-of-serious crusade against House Speaker Mike Johnson, has cost her the support of right-wing media.
The Sunday front page of the New York Post, owned by the conservative Murdoch family, was the latest outlet to attack Greene, invoking the “Moscow Marjorie” nickname coined by former representative Ken Buck.
Fox News, another arm of the Murdoch media empire, had already taken aim at the Georgia Republican last week, with columnist Liz Peek calling her an “idiot” and saying she needs to “turn all that bombastic self-serving showmanship and drama queen energy on Democrats.” This follows an editorial last month from The Wall Street Journal, also in the Murdoch portfolio, that called Greene “Rep. Mayhem Taylor Greene” and accused her and her allies of being “most interested in TV hits and internet donors.”
Even a non-Murdoch outlet is on the attack, as conservative Las Vegas Review-Journal columnist Debra Saunders demanded to know “who put Marjorie Taylor Greene in charge?”

So they knew she was a moron all along, but were perfectly content to let her do her thing as long as she only attacked democrats. Sounds about right.

Thank god democracy doesn’t apply to individual beliefs.
But it’s not
it was restored 🤷♀️
Long time again.
I decided to let it stay but other mods may delete. I think turning on MTG is pro-conservative.
Right. Wouldn’t want to let people (not even conservatives) post about conservative news freely. It first needs to be ok with the hive mind.
At least you openly admit it.
Read rule 2
Either you don’t understand what bigotry means, or you don’t understand what I wrote. No worries though, I didn’t expect you to see the irony either way.
I wonder how much money she has accepted from Putin.
Over the weekend, a Russian state TV host described Greene as “a real beauty. She is a blond who wears white coats with a fur collar. She’s demonstrably heterosexual.”
Finally, someone is recognizing her fantastic looks. /s
She isn’t bad looking. The problem is she is nuts. She doesn’t represent the party and I think the party will be better when she leaves
She doesn’t represent the party
Are you sure about that?
If you said Santos, I’d agree. MTG seems pretty spot on though.
No, MTG isn’t what I would consider a mainstream Republican. I don’t know anyone who likes her other than the people who vote for her. The same thing goes for Boebert.
Matt Gaetz is one that most people don’t like but he keeps teaming up with AOC with bills, along with Josh Hawley. At least they are trying to get things passed.
MTG just tries to block things and whine. She is the Republican equivalent of the squad.

Mr Gaetz and Ms OC actually share a goal at all? That’s a surprise! To hear they’ve worked together on a bill that advances both their constituents’ goals is another shocker.
Once? Try several.
Yet that’s what we should want. People working together
There’s only two people I’ve seen who look like actual dogs given human form: Ron Perlman and Marjorie Taylor Green.
She looks terrible when she’s screaming and acting like a lunatic. I associate her image with snapshots from her breaking decorum in shameful ways, which makes her appear quite ugly as a person and hence physically ugly in those moments. If I knew nothing about her and only saw a picture of her looking normal, I’d think there’s nothing to comment upon.
LFG, that bitch is the only person in modernity I can safely say deserves a muzzle (the kind you put on dogs, idk if there are any other meanings for the word but if so then I’m gonna make myself painfully clear that I don’t endorse violence, just putting contraptions over idiot politicians mouths to keep them from being a danger to society)
