I’m really loving the new game of MTG pretending to newly discover all of the things that everyone has known for years.
Yeah, she seems like she is trying to 180 out of the cult but fuck this bitch. Even if she somehow managed to convince every idiot MAGA to leave, she has still done more harm than good.
No matter what she does, she will always be the bitch that blamed forest fires on Jewish space lasers
Honestly, while she’s definitely irredeemable, I do think that Republican voters would’ve still fallen for all this shit without her, but some might stop believing because of her. It’s easier to follow someone out of something like this than to make the trek alone. A lot of Republicans are finally feeling the burn and looking around for someone to break away first, and MTG might actually be that for some people. Good actions don’t make up for bad ones, but I’ll take what I can get.
It’s more like a 120. She’s reversing course on a lot, but she’s still awful on quite a bit.
She’s on her Megan Kelly arc. I bet we’re going to get a hagiography tell-all book or One Woman’s Struggle Lifetime Movie about her in another year or two.
I’d give it 6 months, she’s been speed running it
I don’t trust her at all. But it is nice to watch.
I don’t think that she thinks ahead at all. No conniving, just reactions.
Definitely
Oh, I totally agree. I have no idea where this is going, but it is certainly entertaining to watch.
I think she’s betting long term for when the orange baby dies and the implosion of his cult of personality takes a lot of the GOP with it. If that happens she can point to her new record and position herself as the return to sanity whilst also still being a republican which gives current and then ex-maga supporters an out without having to admit that their shitty morals is what got the petty petulant perpetual pants pooper into power.
Honestly a very solid strategy now that Georgia is purple. Especially if she is angling for a governor or senate position.
I hate it, but I can recognize the strategy amd logic behind it
Ah yes. They’re only brainwashing when it isn’t in her interests. But when it is, she’ll gladly join the propaganda.
Magic the gathering fights back?
Thanks, Midge, but you can still fuck off.
You’re gonna have to topple the regime that you helped build Margie, or it isn’t good enough.
Basically the equivalent of Moscow Mitch turning around and saying the Supreme Court is cow toeing to fascism.
These people make me wish god/hell was real.
Kowtow, and yeah, these malevolent fucks all need to burn in this reality instead of hoping for the next. The drive for power is so strong that any alignment will be feasible until it is wrenched away from them. Then “whatever it takes” is on the menu to maintain relevancy and attempt to clutch power right back.
Kowtow
Woah that’s a Chinese phrase?? I assumed it was some leftover rancher jargon.
Yeah, it’s wonderful the intermixing of our languages and cultures that has provided such range for communicating. I love that you had a word in your vernacular that you perhaps hadn’t read yet, but knew it applied and brought it out in the conversation.
I had the opposite happen to me once where I read “ciao” so many times, but hadn’t connected it with the right pronunciation.
She’s still pissed Trump would not let her run for Senator in Georgia. The Democrats or Left hasn’t forgotten the shit she said.
The enemy of your enemy…
Is pointed the right direction for once
I lack faith in the DNC not to be stupid and fall for her bullshit.
I don’t care why she’s doing it, someone prominent in MAGA calling them out might help other MAGA leave the cult.
is this because she now can afford better food on the ex senator salary?
got working brain again?
I would wager it is because her source of power cut her off, so now she will do whatever she can to reclaim it.
“Again” implies she ever had one at some point in the past.
Out of everything that leaves his mouth around 5 % is true, the rest is nonsense or just plain lying.
His?
Be not fooled
There’s an old saying in Tennessee, I know it’s in Texas, probably in Tennessee, that says “Fool me once, shame on…shame on you. Fool me…you can’t get fooled again.” We’ve got to understand the nature of the regime we’re dealing with.
Calling it now: she’s preparing to run for president.
Wow what a glow up, I love the fangs!
Yeah, that second picture is gorgeous. What a transformation!
You may be right because I’ve seen people calling it for a few months now.
2015: it’s going to be fun to see Trump try and fail
2026: oh no MTG don’t do it
I don’t think we have as much to worry with her, remember she’s a woman and we know how much America hates that
Remember that underestimating trump is what led to a lot of the pain we are feeling now. I would try not to make the same mistake again less than a decade afterwards.
For which party?
Where ever the grift is the strongest.
She’s still a very right leaning Republican. Just been calling out the BS for attention recently.
Sounds like she’s stopped dreaming in this apocalyptic lala land that conservative news portends to them and is finally starting to wake up.
Nah, next week she’ll be back on Jewish space lasers.
I know who Greene is, but I honestly find it weird how they’re referred to by their initials only. No other country would do that in a world news community, especially when the politician isn’t even a major leader of any sort
It’s a bit of a trend in US politics.
JFK = John F. Kennedy
AOC = Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez
MTG = Marjorie Taylor Greene
I think it has more to do with the US preferring to use the second name initial as an identifier, like with George Bush and George W. Bush. Three letters just roll off the tounge better, while everyone know who is meant. Of course, with AOC it’s not her second name but a classic Spanish doubled surname. Though it couls be from somewhere else, too. Idk what countries all have doubled surnames.
Am I the only one who is really uncomfortable with this MTG PR-blitz this year? She is obviously trying to rehabilitate her image ahead of an upcoming political push, but she is truly a monster.

I don’t think she is trying to rehabilitate her image. I think she was a MAGA and Qanon true believer, and she’s genuinely only just now figured out that they were lying criminals. She’s still 100% on-board with the hateful, bigoted, totalitarian christofascism; she just no longer trusts Trump’s faction to lead it.
She wasn’t allowed in on the grift. So she big mad.
I do think she’s hoping for some comeback in the midterms as she “exposes the scam” to others as dumb as herself.
She is anticipating that sooner or later trump will fuck up so badly that republicans will look for a saner leader. She wants to appeal to all the political conservatives - as distinct from the maga muppets - who currently feel disenfranchised. She’s setting herself up for a presidential run. It’s quite cunning really.
Hopefully she runs for president and spoils the R vote. That would be glorious.
Please let it happen, it would be so fucking funny to watch her get bit by the misogyny she glibly fed.
Just not brainwashing them how she wants it done, the “Jewish Space Laser” lady.
