Her name isn’t on the ballot. She no longer serves in Congress. But Marjorie Taylor Greene is looming large in the minds of north-west Georgia voters as they prepare to choose who to replace her with in Washington.
Known for her hard-line Christian conservative views, brash committee appearances, and embrace of multiple conspiracy theories, Greene quickly became one of the most prominent Republican members of Congress after winning her seat in 2020.
“She did some stuff off the wall,” said Justin Leonard, 28-year-old firefighter in Georgia’s 14th congressional district, who voted for Greene twice. “Kind of making conservatives look a little right-wing and a little like nut jobs. But other than that, I think she did her job.”
But when Greene broke her unwavering support for US President Donald Trump late last year, the pair’s rift descended into a very public feud that ultimately led to her decision to quit Congress in January.
The difference is the batshit insane fucking idiots on one side want to murder all non-whites, and the batshit insane fucking idiots on the other side want us all to eat vegetables and live in free-loving communes. There’s a difference between a lovable moron and a hate-filled asshole moron.
Then which one is Schumer, Pelosi and Booker? Something tells me y’all are confused about where the sides really are.
They are not fucking idiots. They are assholes who care far more about power and money than about the public in general, but they aren’t idiots.
That said, you will also find no shortage of people on the left who are furious with those three and want them primaried out. Those three were voted in for sounding sensible and logical and appealing to the center. They stay voted in because most voters are uninformed. On the right, though, voters will happily vote in the primaries for the MOST insanely illogical person. It’s like a contest to see who can say the most insane thing.
