How is it that the most extreme mouth piece changed their tune, but the middle chucklefucks didn't?
It's because Greene actually drank the kool-aid, and has now found out what's in it, whereas most of the others only pretend to like it.
I think those who dont truly believe but follow anyway are more vile than those who were duped
Well, there are also those who truly believe and like the Kool-Aid, the really committed white supremacists such as Stephen Miller and Elon Musk. They probably win the evilness contest.
It's like the member of the group that just now realized they were getting made fun of the whole time.
A big part of why the republican party has been so successful politically is their unwavering unconditional loyalty to the party. They can make waves politically with a smaller amount of people as long as they stay united. It's basically mostly just political strategy. It's also why this is a huge fucking deal. We can use this to start putting more pressure on the republican party and making that strategy less viable.
Some people think jumping ship in frigid waters will save them somehow, when there's no search and rescue looking for them... while other's are wise to just go down with the ship anyway... at least they feel like they're not alone.
they think they can still make money and gain power through their connection to him, maybe?
You run to the right to wing the primary and waddle back to the center when you've got control. Because the center is where all the money's at. The fringe is just people spun up hard enough to show up at convensions, scream at people during board meetings, and then stomp through oppressive heat and knock doors until nightfall for weeks at a time to scream "They're destroying America!" at anyone who answers the door.
She still touts ivermectin as a treatment for various ailments, so let's not get too carried away with the idea that she has seen the light.
So much this. Her and Tucker are still wildly dangerous in their beliefs. Just because they cannot get along with Donvict and the way the conservatives have tied themselves so closely to the terrorism of Israel's doesn't mean they are not very, very bad for this country.
Maybe her and Tucker can form a new party and split the conservative vote and send all of them into the wilderness for decades.
They are all so fucking crazy. It's not at all surprising they have a difference of opinion over doctrinal issues. First of all, most of the shit the cons say they care about, they do not really care about: small government, freedom, liberty, the Constitution, non-interventionism, free markets, etc...what really motivates much of the conservative "movement" is about racism.
So when someone like Donvict steps out of line on something like tariffs and attacking Iran, it's not surprising some peel off, while others stay, because as long as the important kernel of conservatism is there - which is the racism (xtian nationalism) - many will stay. But Tucker and MTG also have the important kernel of xtian nationalism, too....so what is a conservative to do, LOL?
Given their RWA (right wing authoritarian) character flaws, most RWAs will tend to line up behind someone deemed to be a "strong leader", so that's the dangerous thing.
But if there are two prominent right wing conservative parties (The Republican Party, and The Teabagger 2.0 Party under Tucker and Marge) with two cult of personalities leading them, hopefully they'd split all the RWAs for a while.
Another redcoat slipping into a blue sweater.
Golly, I remember a time when she was flinging poo at a democrat president giving a speech.
So... is putin still writing her lines?
It's not either America first or last, it really is America alone.
Just watch the G7 pictures, it's very clear that nobody really want to talk to Trump.


Why would anybody talk to him? They're supposed to talk about global politics and he doesn't know a thing about it. Plus he smells.
His posture always motivates me to straighten my back. Half a step short of kyphosis
Why is this news? She’s not even a representative anymore
She helped create the problem, she can fuck herself.
Nah I'm all for the converts. They're very useful in persuading others. It's a wasted opportunity to just burn them and in essence tell anyone that they will be punished for changing their minds.
I agree. Splitting the GOP into Nazis and “I just want to fuck over brown people” is actually going to be great for them not being able to get a vote majority in our broken electoral system.
Also sometimes they switch completely, personally if someone wants to improve, if only a little I try to encourage it. If immediately they're met with hostility for improving then the only sensible direction for them to go is back. At the end of the day and as you pointed out in your comment, it's a numbers game. You can try to divide and conquer and also recruit. Defectors / converts are extremely useful at convincing more to convert which definitely won't happen if at the front door we're telling them to fuck off and suck a bag of dicks. So if people go against their poor judgements I'm all for it, one step closer to waking up, switching sides and adding to the numbers.
Fuck yeah, you're on a goddamn roll. The best way to fight your enemies is to turn them into friends. The best way to fight racists is to get them to no longer be racist. Best way to fight nazis is to get them to not be a nazi. Etc. If you don't give them any opportunity to reform, then why the fuck would you expect them to change??? Normalize the fuck out of the above attitude.
Ohhhhhhhmygod, this is such a very important point that gets so lost on the terminally online crowd. The political opportunity of such a high profile member of a major party leaving said party is insane. You would have to be all the way outside your mind to not take the opportunity to poke the cracks forming in the two party system. MTG bad, yep, not disagreeing, but it would be just straight stupid to not pick this up as a way to get more conservatives to start questioning the republican party and in turn the two party system as a whole.
It would be stupid, a lot of people are . . .well maybe not fully stupid but deeply blinded by their emotions. Unfortunately politics has evolved into like religion2.0, infidels are to be slaughtered, and anyone who doubts anything whatsoever is to be crucified. I remember when it wasn't like this, when there wasn't this intense pressure about switching parties. Of course it always existed to some degree, but from what I've seen and what I know it's been ramping up the past decade or two.
We elected a black man and it broke the brain of every conservative in America. That's why it's seemed to ramp up over the last two decades.
But she’s not a convert. She continued voting with her party, but is leaving office. Her actions and rebranding are in order to transition to the talk show circuit. If offered the more money elsewhere, she will become a malignant force once again.
She’s an opportunist, not reformed. An opportunist with a microphone and a pension.
If you can't get a convert you can get someone who will create division. Not as good, but still worthwhile. Individuals play their parts and then leave, the truth is nearly everyone is playing to their own self interest so that should always be expected. Acts of wellbeing or charity typically come when someone is already fed and taken care of. I can't say anything about what will be but what is there now is still useful. Also I am speaking somewhat about her case and more so generally.
Yeah, I'm for converts, but not MTG. You don't get to come back from "Jewish space lasers started the forest fires". Every day people, sure. But she was an instrumental part of putting the bitch in office a second time. She doesn't get a pass now that she's conveniently "reformed" after leaving her position of power.
Between her and Carlson, they're setting the stage for a party split. It's yet to be seen which faction will contain the most lunatics.
I hope they form another party - let's call it the Teabagger Party.
The Teabagger Party can be like the Reform Party, the Constitution Party, the Libertarian Party and draw away votes from the Republicans. In this case, they might have a bit more star power than some of those other crank parties and help split the vote of Republicans enough to radically weaken their stranglehold on the country I love.
Must be new to this game, every side has kooks and crazies, they're useful. Of course the right has swung pretty hard into that camp lately. Really driving their christo-facist state, but it backfired when they ditched their isolationist stance and of course blatantly disregarded the poor in their camp. We should keep accurate receipts about the affects of the Big Beautiful Bill to drive it home that their party is the anti-middle class party, the bourgeoisie party. Shit would be wide open to whoever can bring down the cost of living.
This is more infighting than conversion.
Yeah but generally any movement away I encourage. Maybe they don't fully switch parties but still aids almost as well. Immediately reacting to any change of heart with hostility might decrease the division or prevent people from fully switching. I say give me your tired, your poor,Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,The wretched.
I was just being pedantic. Certainly we should all encourage the split, but I wouldn't count on any of them becoming allies anytime soon.
Nah. There are certain people that dont get a pass. I wouldnt piss on her if she was on fire and she gets no points for being the same self-serving rat she's always been.
Anyone that followers her away from this administration will likely follow her down whatever terrible thing she backs next.
Not to say I dislike justice but I'm a hippie, the one people one love, unconditional love, hope, and forgiveness as best I can manage type. I get where you're coming from, I wasn't always this way, used to be a pretty angry fellow. For me I'm more so sad to see minds and hearts that are so deep into ignorance that they cause needless and avoidable suffering to themselves and others. I like to see minds become aware because they stop causing needless and avoidable suffering. Of course that process of becoming aware can be quite hellish at times, which is why most don't bother. To me if it can be managed it's the ultimate punishment because on the other side you get a person who wants to decrease needless and avoidable suffering.
I also wouldnt really want to help put her out if she was on fire. But if she grabs a fire extinguisher and starts helping put out the raging world ending fire... I won't tell her to stop or push her away until it is out.
At least we know what she is doing for now
The thing is that what she is doing is holding up a prop fire extinguisher, to get a photo in the news. She still thinks and wants the same awful things.
Yeah? What has she been wanting?
Do you remember who she was and the causes she championed during her stint in office? That, minus trump or GOP. She remains the jewish space lasers lady.
Oh I was just asking cause you seemed like you had something more recent.
Just that nothing changed save that Trump stopped liking her, and as soon as that happened she suddenly had this huge problem with the party.
I have a thought for how much a trust any politician.
And its that if they hear the government is full of corruption and back alley deals of no work or hard work and is excited about joining.
Well then they probably arent going to do much to actually make it better for me, compared to what they are thinking about for themself.
But hey, eventually got to do something about it and even if that means finding someone who doesnt want to burn alive even if it is selfish cause at least they might help.
Now watch in amazement as Schumer surely gears up to court the "disillusioned Carlsons and Greenes" of America, instead of focussing on the left base of the party. Maybe Kamala tries going on tour with Greene next.
The Dems will choose her as their candidate before letting any of the Squad get close to power.
The leopards send their compliments to the chef.
Marge is an awful creature but at least she stuck to what she said she believed in.
I actually do think it's kind of worse when someone is only pretending to support something for profit. You can't really convince them otherwise because it's not a rationale or moral posture that brought them here; they have already weighed how they would feel going with something they didn't support and decided to roll with it as long as they got paid handsomely.
Marge is an awful creature but at least she stuck to what she said she believed in.
Marge is an opportunistic rat, who is abandoning the sinking ship. She is just positioning herself for the next grift,
Kinda funny how this guy was a narcissistic scammer his entire life and people were like "I trust him".
So, back to picking lice out of her fur and flinging feces at the other monkeys?
IMO she is a MAGA true believer. And Trump and the GOP keep doing things that do not MAGA. She is still terrible just realising that Trump isn't actually about MAGA.
Yes they still fully believe in the fucked up ideology of the same party. The Republican party has been a fucked up mess at least since Reagan, but these fucks are the people that created the tea party mess that led us here. These are the founders, if you will.
The only reason they're leaving is because they're pissed that now they too have to suffer the results. They were supposed to be on top and we'll they're not.
Don't for a second believe that these fuckwads have any interest in actual democracy and good for all. They are fascists, they just want to be on the other side of the stick again
MTG for President! Everybody! C'mon! Let me hear you!
Oh hold on a second. MTG for RBF!
