anyone who believes her overnight tune change deserves to be taken for the fool they are
Concentrateman on
I watched her on Bill Maher. A chameleon in sheep’s clothing. She may run for the Senate. Don’t believe anything she says.

On a different thread about this statement somebody else pointed out that she’s probably trying to position herself as a moderate to prepare for a senate run.
That’s my current working theory, not that she’s no longer batshit insane.

She’s a dangerous fake, she isn’t too be trusted with positions of power or a platform, look out for source lasers.
We can pick better representatives

She wants to be a senator, and the Trump administration wasn’t going to let her do that, on account of she’s a fucking lunatic. So she’s doing it on her own. This is her coming to the middle, to make herself more appealing to the middle.
Along the way, she is burning her bridge to Trump in part as a fuck you for not helping her out.
There are very few true believers in the Republican party. She fooled me. She’s not one of them. She’s a cynic, just like the rest.

I doubt she ever believed in the QAnon stuff she spouted anyway. She’s 100% a self serving narcissist who will say whatever needs to be said to whoever it needs said to to secure the vote and backing for whichever stage of her career she’s in.

The only thing surprising about this flip, is that there aren’t more yet.

I am never going to be a fan of MTG.
But I do applaud what she is doing now. Only because there is nearly zero discourse in this country right now. There was a time when the news was the only source of news. News papers, Radio and TV were relatively small compared to the 1000s of websites and commentators today. We choose what we want to hear and the algorithms feed us nothing but.
I went years wondering how anyone can support the orange devil. All the news and corruption we see reported daily makes his crimes so obvious it can’t be ignored.
Have you ever really dug into what the Right says about the Left?
We call them Nazi, White Supremist, Racist and anti American. They call us godless demons that traffic in children. The extreme view of the right in regards to the left made me, a crazy leftist, question my beliefs to make sure I’m not just projecting because “my team lost’. I did and concluded that there is plenty of evidence that he is a crook/molester and all around bad actor that I feel I am justified in my position.
What MTG is doing now is showing the Right what we have been shouting about for the past few years. At least someone they occasionally listen to is saying it.

I would be more lenient on her if she had said something along the lines of “I was wrong, I fell for propaganda looking to divided the American people and I hope to have learned from that”, but no, she’s just a victim, she did nothing wrong the poor thing. Fuck you.
RSKisSuperman on
i think AOC was correct when she said that trump wouldn’t back her for senate in GA so now she’s on a retribution tour
Tend3roniJabroni on
She has become a more skilled politician, that is all. She is still the soulless sack of shit she was 5 years ago. Bad people cannot change.
ronerychiver on
When I see the person who lit my house on fire run out my the house screaming that the house is on fire and how they barely made it out alive and how they never knew that my upholstery could be that flammable or that a small fire could get that out of control so fast, I still expect them to be arrested. The media is treating her like a house fire victim getting oxygen in the back step of an ambulance with a blanket around her shoulders.
The next question out of their mouth needs to be “is this the kind of ruse that you think the people who should be in a position of power are gullible enough to fall for?”

She spouted the lies so long as she would get something from Trump. Now Trump and the administration have turned their back on her so she will slowly go scorched earth on them. When there are enough votes for it (still need people to be sworn in), MTG will vote to release the Epstein files.
funkypepermint on
She is trying to white wash her image cause she knows trump is gonna go down
joegetto on
It’s because she wants to run for senate and this is repairing her image. It won’t hold. She is who she is.
RightRudderr on
Besides it being obvious that shes disingenuous, we should consider it from another angle. Let’s assume this is an actual, genuine change of heart and there are zero ulterior political motives. She STILL doesn’t deserve a single vote. Im ok to be open to people coming away from the MAGA cult but people like her have done so much damage the most genuine thing she could actually do is retire from politics and be active as a civilian.
Tldr if she actually cared she’d step aside.
Old_Tiger_7519 on
I hope she‘s watching out for those Jewish space lasers that will target rats deserting a sinking ship, because the dems who control the weather are sinking that ship.
EpilepticSeizures on
When the president does crazy shit, people will act slightly less crazy and be seen as moderate, no matter what the actual stances are. Literally numbing people with stupidity. Her dropping the QAnon is already ridiculous, a government official shouldn’t believe QAnon conspiracy bullshit to begin with, so this is nothing but PR before the ship hits the iceberg. Trying to portray herself as less of a shitbag to not be lumped into the Guardians of Pedophiles crowd.
Sad-Side-8704 on
A victim?? You just took bat shit crazy internet conspiracy theories at face value lmao
FranksWateeBowl on
Rats are going to start jumping ship.
Meb2x on
She’s making a Senate run or possibly running for governor. Hardcore Trump voters will vote for her no matter what, so she’s trying to play moderate to get some undecided votes. She’s not the kind of person to suddenly become decent, so someone on her staff is trying to make PR moves

The rats are starting to desert the ship. Big marge is one of the smartest rats

… is … is she … displaying … *political savvy*?
What a world.
Briham86 on
So she gonna apologize to David Hogg, or be gutless?
queentracy62 on
She is absolutely out for herself and herself only.
She doesn’t want to go down with this ship and thinks she’ll be able to survive. Doubtful but ya never know.
Jackie_chin on
This group is so obsessed with hidden motives.
Here’s the way I see it:
– The rural south is more likely to listen to her than they ever would to a democrat
– She is advocating for the release of the Epstein files. Unlike policies that get token votes, the Republican higher-ups do not want any GOP to be voting for this.
– She is talking about the right-wing social media algorithm lying to people.
Nobody is asking anyone to endorse Greene. If she tries for Senate, you dont need to vote for her. However, if she has an important message, let her have her platform to spread it. Who cares what her intentions are. At the best, she reaches a few thousand people who would only listen to Fox News. At the worst, she changes her tune and wins back the voters who were never going to vote Democrat anyway. No current democrat is going to vote her over Ossoff or Warnock.
Trump is willing to endorse Cuomo, to recruit Tulsi Gabbard, whatever he needs at the moment. (And will dispose them at moments notice). On the other hand, we have people here who still can’t wait till Adam Kinzinger ‘shows his true colors’.
If you agree with the message, leave it at that. She can reach people you can never hope to reach.

This is part of the MTG rehabilitation tour. She wants to run for the Senate, and needs to tone down the crazy for all the Georgia voters in the blue parts of the state.
