She’s looking at the next election.
Run for prez…
Senate. She wants a Senate seat, and Trump wouldn’t endorse her due to the fact she’s been constantly wanting to release the Epstein files.
Granted, I don’t think she believed that Trump was in the files, until he went ape shit about it.
She worshiped Trump, and still holds all the ridiculous and evil beliefs from before, but now her god has betrayed her.
And I say good.
Trump is likely going down, with or without her, so I say without.
Hey dont push it, a Greene-Fuentes ticket probably would beat Newsom-Buttigieg, definitely would win against Harris and whatever cursed soul she picks as a running mate
And if the Dems don’t mount a REALLY effective campaign and candidate, she might be the leading bet for who’s gonna win.
She is the ONLY one left who captures even a sliver of Trump’s base. But she also has the appeal of people thinking they’re making a “liberal” choice with her. And make no mistake, most of the country does not follow politics or drama and know zilch about her, only that she sounds “down home country” the way she talks and she don’t wanna associate wit dat there Trump fellow after he diddled dem kids.
When media and interviews turn their eyes to her and start grilling her on the batshit things she said like jewish space lasers and so on, it will only serve to launch her higher in viewership and attention. Trump won on this tactic and Dems still worry about a “perfect candidate” who will preserve the status quo that nobody cares about outside their dusty halls of ancient pageantry and old money.
We are SO fucked.
I think enough of the MAGA base is incapable of voting for a woman that she starts in a pretty deep hole even within her party. I don’t see her getting the nomination, and if she does I see her struggling to inspire turnout in the general. Sexism impacted both Hillary Clinton and Kamala Harris, and will be even harder for a GOP candidate to overcome.

What with the hypocrisy and shifting goalposts for MAGA/GOP types, a female Trump 2.0 would seem quite plausible to my eyes. These types don’t care for conserving anything in particular nor for standing up afor any fixed set of values. They are, quite literally going along with the flow.
If that is what you think, you are 40years and 2 steps behind. Misogynistic rhetoric hasn’t been en vogue since the 80’s, and if you think Hillary or Kamala lost only because they were women, you really don’t have anything useful to say and instead are leaning on the trope of “common wisdom.”
There’s literally a movement within MAGA to repeal the right of women to vote. Yes, I absolutely believe that the misogyny is present in today’s GOP. Further, multiple polls and other research studies have found that a significant number of voters in the US does not support the idea of a woman for president. Here are a few references:

https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/4782780-americansready-female-president-dipping-survey/
Anecdotally, Michelle Obama recently observed the same thing: https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/5607777-michelle-obama-us-not-ready-woman-president/
And if you combine her observation with the GOP views on women as president reflected in this pew research poll (notably “Republicans (86%) are twice as likely as Democrats (43%) to say it is not at all or not too important if they ever see a woman elected U.S. president”), I think there’s ample reason to believe that a Republican candidate for president would struggle to gain support from a statistically relevant group of voters.
And no, I do not think that Clinton And Harris lost only because they’re women. I did not say that at. Evidence suggests that misogyny was one of many factors, though.
Humbly, go fuck yourself.
Reflection and repentance is important, but it doesn’t immediately absolve you of all the shit you did to get to this point, and those you hurt and stepped on to get there.
Unfortunately, we got like, a good 50/50 chance of her actually being elected president in a few years with the current state of both parties unless something big changes.
She was okay less than 6 months ago, of her voters getting tased at a town hall, and was laughing at them. She is evil and playing a game right now.
“The most hurtful thing (Trump) said, which is absolutely untrue, is he called me a traitor, and that is so extremely wrong,” Greene said, “and those are the types of words used that can radicalize people against me and put my life in danger.”
Congrats, you helped create the toxic cesspool that is modern politics. Go fuck yourself, cunt, you don’t get pass now that it’s affecting you personally.
Take down Trump as a show of good faith.
Then do Vance. And flush Stephen Miller’s head in the toilet while you’re at it.
And flush Stephen Miller’s head in the toilet
Insiders say he likes that.
My most charitable thinking about this is that she s always just playing to win. The way she acted was just that, an act. She did it because she knew it appealed to a particular segment of society that could get her elected. Now there is a sea change she is smart enough to know MAGA is doomed and she had jumped ship early because she thinks it will be more politically advantageous in the long run.
She may be genuinely remorseful if she is good for her, but it doesn’t erase the things she had voted for, against, and the things she said that harmed people or incited violence deliberately or accidentally.
That said, she is somewhat uniquely positioned to assist in the deprogramming of MAGA members so, though I don’t trust her, the things she is doing and saying today are leading people away from Trump, and that is the most vital mission right now.
The deprogramming is an incredibly good point.
Yeah, the apologies are the first step, if she follows through and changes we can decide wgat to do. But as it stands stepping back will at the very least reduce the heat she gets because she only gets it because she’s actively been picking fights
She isn’t deprogramming shit. She is leading people away from Trump and toward her because she suspects Trump will be dead soon and she wants to take his place. She “loves Trump” (her words from the view interview). You’d have to be dumber then a liberal to take her at her word.
I didn’t actually say she was deprogramming anyone, just that she is in a position where she could.
That said, the fact that she is speaking out against him has unquestionably lead other people to doubt him.
Whether she is trying to take his place is not a point I tried to address directly, but I do believe she is behaving this way because she sees it as a way to further her own political career.
Follow it up with legislation that helps people, challenge impossible.
“I would like to say, humbly, I’m sorry for taking part in the toxic politics; it’s very bad for our country,” Greene said. “It’s been something I’ve thought about a lot, especially since Charlie Kirk was assassinated.”
Huh, I didn’t consider that might be a reason for her “change of heart.” Was the first time she started saying things that made sense after he was shot?
It’s not a change of heart on white christian nationalist policymaking, so her rhetoric means fuck all.
Yeah, that’s why it’s in quotes.
Yeah, I’m curious too - I’ve largely ignored her, so I have no idea if her language changed after Kirk.
Apparently she started before it happened. Maybe she really was self-aware enough to see what Trump’s endgame would be.
Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene said Sunday she will stop using “toxic” rhetoric, marking what would be a dramatic shift in a political brand…
Wow they didn’t waste any time dragging her, I love it. 😄
Deeds, not words.
I’ll believe this shit when I see it, which will probably be never.
I’m too old to be fooled by these MAGA morons and their crocodile tears.
She’s on the oversight committee and has seen the unredacted Epstein files. She’s in survival mode and that means distancing from orange Shittler right now. Nothing more.
It’s nothing more than rats jumping off a sinking ship.
Seriously.
I feel like i’m about to be put in a padded room. What the fuck is happening to my reality. what kind of weirdo alternate reality have I woken up to, where MTG of all people is being sane and rational… and has been that way for at least a month or three now.
Do I go outside and start flinging my hands at neighbors and screaming fireball, in the hopes this weird new world I have apparently found myself in has magic?
/doubt
But if she does change and becomes a good person, I will accept her as a fellow human being. Until I see change, she is a big troll with spork toes.
Oh she’s off the coke. Good for her
No she’s gearing up for a Senate run. Trying to clean up her image so she’s more appealing to the voters in her state and not just the backwards assholes that she represents in backwater Georgia.
