    And you wont hear it from the RW Networks. She is toxic and they know it. She is bad for the GOP, and like the GOP, I think expelling her form congress is a bad idea. She won the election, they need to seat her. Now that being said, they dont have to give her any committee assignments etc. Now, Pelosi does have a very good case to be afraid of her. MTG, after all, supports killing Pelosi.

    But lets be clear here, this IS the new GOP. They START at conspiracy and then make their case from there. MTG is a Q-Anon believer, and even though she has no place in a position of power because of her past statements and actions, she did get the vote. But as I said, that is the GOP today

    That is an odd thing to say considering she parrots what Trump says.

    Hardly a nobody, talk of the town these days, Trump even called her yesterday

    And as I just told another, AOC doesn’t turn off moderates, swing voters, women and suburbanites, all who Trump costs the GOP in 2020, and Greene certainly isn’t going to get them back, I fact, will probably increase Democrat appeal to those voting blocks

    I am 3 of those 4 and AOC definitely turns me off as a voter. I’ll probably never have her on my ballot, but she won’t get my vote if she does.

    Anecdotal

    Even though the GOP did its best to portray the Democrats as “socialists” and all “Green Dealers,” aka AOC, it didn’t work, the Democrats still maintained the House and picked up four Senate seats

    Then get the 'nobody' off the Committees, sit her on that corner chair and put a cone on her head.

    Lol at anecdotal as you claim she doesn’t do things. You didn’t qualify it so I must take your words at face value. If she doesn’t do that then 100% of her district would have voted for her. Did they? Nope.

    TLDR: 100% of her district did not vote for her(and many others across the country feel the same way) so your statement is rated as not true.

    MTG is a troll. Don't feed the trolls. She is a jr trump wanna be. But for now, she's from some hick county as a freshman representative, that is likely pure white.

    And Pres Biden refuses to denounce ANTIFA and BLM terror. Pres Obama refused to call Islamic terrorists Islamic terrorists. This game of 'which side has the worst boogymen' has been going on for a while and despite all the QQing I think the players like it that way - its good cover.

    Fox News is reporting in her or anything that makes their base look bad.

    Well lets be real here those types of voters you listed, according to a lot of exit polling, didn't back Pres Trump because of his and the GOP's stupid COVID antics. I don't think they were rallying behind the far-left so much as willing to put up with their influence over Pres Biden simply to get something done about this pandemic. Like myself, I didn't want Pres Trump out because I wanted AOC in, for example.

    Now will the GOP continue to spiral out of control for a number of reasons including the Greens and the Trumps of the world? Perhaps. There might be a future necessity to abandon the GOP entirely and divert efforts into saving the DNC from the insane radical far-left progressive extremists.

    Bachmann, Palin, and now Greene.

    The face of the Republican Party just gets more and more reasonable and down to earth !

    Less insane than one who wanted to see Congress people killed? Surely you jest.

    Never heard of her myself, maybe she was part of the college entrance scandal or something, your guess is as good as mine.

    Let's be honest. The GOP "face" whatever it is... sucks. I would say it's Mitch McConnell and Kevin McCarthy, both of whom are turds. That being said, the "face" of the Democratic Party is Pelosi, AOC, and Biden and as bad as the GOP is, those scumbags are even worse. Both parties are steaming piles.

    So you are admitting that the sources you look to for news have not reported on a subject that is huge and gives RW extremism a bad name.

    Ever think of finding a legitimate news source that reports on THE NEWS no matter what side it favors or harms?

    Your problem is that you're biased. AOC isn't insane. Not at all. She is very smart, clear, brave, direct, and stands for the people without apology. You just don't like her stand.

    • She said immigration detention centers are concentration camps.
    • She said 6 weeks paid maternity leave isn't enough because dogs stay with their puppies for 8 weeks. But then she also asked if it was ok to even have children while implying that, no, its not because 'global warming'.
    • She tweeted that her DC apartments garbage disposal scared the daylights out of her because she had never heard one before and didn't even know they existed - then said it must be a bougie appliance.
    • She made a video where she said Democrats must take back all three branches of Congress, but don't worry she cleared that up by saying she meant all three branches of government and then told us what those were: the Presidency, the Senate and the House (spoiler alert the three branches are: Executive, Legislative, and Judicial).
    • She claimed The Pentagon lost $21 TRILLION dollars from its budget in one year.
    • She said that unemployment was only low under Pres Trump because everyone had two jobs.
    • When Amazon was going to bring a massive facility to Queens she threw a tantrum over taxes and ended up helping to kill the deal and rob her people of about 25,000 jobs.
    • When asked about her position on Israel she she snarked about Palestinian occupation and then when asked to elaborate she rattled a series of incoherent phrases before stammering into silence leaving the interviewer stunned.
    • And my personal favorite, she straight up without any further context or allowance for exaggeration that the world will end in 12 years unless her New Green Scam was enacted.
    Smart, clear, brave, direct, stands for the people. I just obliterated that nonsense from memory. I bet if I actually Googled ol' bug eyes I could have made this list 5 times as long.

    Look, I really don't know much anything at all about Rep Greene other than shes a QAnon nutjob and honestly that's enough for me to write her off entirely. But the DNC and their MSM have an abundant histroy of taking small things and erroneously inflating them to catastrophic proportions for self serving reasons that have nothing to do with truth. Sad thing is that if all the powers at be in media and big tech devoted even 10% the effort they spend on Republicans to investigating and reporting on the true positions and intentions of Democrats you'd be an Independent just as I am because the ranks of these two parties are filled to the brim with fkin lunatics.

    They certainly didn’t vote for AOC’s Democrat Party, wasn’t implying that, rather they weren’t turned off by her, she was a nonfactor with those voting groups, unlike Greene, who could be an anchor for the GOP given her views

    And the Democrats aren’t led by “radical far-left progressive extremists”

    Seems you’ve accepted all the talk radio narratives of AOC, easy to cherry pick any individual and frame a personal portrait

    False Equivalency. AOC says dumb things sometimes. But nothing on the level of MTG. Really dangerous conspiracy theories.

    The school shooting conspiracy theories alone out do AOC. Lets not even get into liking and talking about the killing of congressmen. I mean wow. It's on another level.
