The MAGA representative is continuing her break with the Republican Party—and the president himself.
MAGA Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene is still one of the few GOP members to rebuke Trump and his lies in any meaningful way.
Taylor Greene spoke freely in an interview with CNN’s Kaitlan Collins on Thursday night. “The president says there’s virtually no inflation, and that grocery prices are going down,” Collins asked the Georgia representative. “Do you agree with him on that?”
“No, I go to the grocery store myself. Grocery prices remain high. Energy prices are high. My electricity bills are higher here in Washington, D.C., at my apartment, and they’re also higher at my house in Rome, Georgia, higher than they were a year ago,” MTG said. “Affordability is a problem, and I’m a mom. My kids are 22, 26, and 28. That’s the generation I worry about the most, and they’re having a very hard time.”
WHAT IN THE FUCK IS EVEN HAPPENING ANYMORE???
I heard on a podcast (Pod Save America) this morning that she’s apparently talked to confidants about running for President next election. She’s trying to wash her reputation by suddenly sounding a tad more reasonable.
It’s a trick, get an axe
I didn’t have an axe but I do have this guillotine…
She might be bonkers but she’s shrewd and seen the way the winds blowing. She’s going to do a Liz Truss and position herself as the ‘sensible’ option for change in the MAGA movement, when Trump either pops his clogs or the Epstein Files drop.
Just bc she’s honest about problems we are facing doesn’t mean she has good answers.
I don’t even know what to do in a world where MTG is making sense.
Three-toed salute, or something.
It’s weird that this Queen of Lying and Denying Reality is somehow becoming a voice of truth…She must be worried about midterms. ROFL
He’s not just hurting the right people. If she and her family were unaffected. She would be giddily cheering him to war with Venezuela and blue cities. She is and will always be a shit person. She’s just not used to consequences.
She’s only telling the truth because it serves her personally.

I’m guessing as a career opportunist, she has built her strategy about being “an outsider looking to improve things” as a populist or someone that is critical without actually providing any solutions. When the GOP are not in power, this strategy works. However, now that the GOP control all 3 branches of government, the only way to use the “outsider” strategy is to attack the GOP itself. I don’t think for a second that, were she to gain a leadership position, she would provide rational and realistic solutions.
So we can enjoy watching them fight themselves, but I don’t think it will lead to any meaningful change or improvement in the life of Americans.
according to AOC, it is because MTG wanted to run for Senate next year and Trump told her no
… and there’s talk she’s planning to run for President. Hah.
When it comes to their young…
she’s safe in her seat. ga14 is rated r+19 (cook pvi), the most republican-leaning district in that state.
Marge, please, stop it. I may actually start to respect you and that’s making me feel like hurting myself.
The maga is destroying itself
Wait until Trump dies. Then the real fun begins.
How long till ICE shows up at her door, warrantless, masked, and carries her kicking and screaming aways? Any guesses?
That would be demented enough for him to do that there’s a non-zero chance. But then you could say that about anything. Because of the dementia.
I stopped watching wrestling after I felt like the storylines became too obvious. Why am I now interested in this clown show with horrible heel turns?
She is just running circles around media establishments. Speaker Greene is going to be wild. Or at least that’s what she’s after. Every House GOPer is going to need a pivot and she will be that for them.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
