If you thought you’d heard all of the absurd bullshit that could possibly emanate from the putrid piehole that Georgia Republican Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene calls her mouth, what she said earlier today is so ridiculous that it’s incredible she was able to say it without bursting into laughter.
Appearing on the right-wing “Real America’s Voice” podcast, Greene suggested that Democrats want to “create happiness” so they can win the midterm elections:
“I think we’re going to hear Joe Biden, he’s going to claim victory over Covid. And if he does that then you’ll know the Democrats are lying. You’ll know for sure like we’ve already known along that they’re just using Covid for politics and they’re very much looking to move on and create happiness going into the midterms.”

Wouldn’t Biden be justified in declaring victory over COVID? After all, it was his administration that made sure everyone who wanted a vaccination got one. 64% of the U.S. population is now fully vaccinated. 76% have received at least one dose. That’s despite the lies and misinformation spread by right-wing media and anti-vax extremists like Congresswoman Greene, who was too busy attending a white nationalist convention over the weekend to do anything constructive for her constituents.
There are already rumblings inside the GOP that they may not do as well as they originally thought in November. With clowns like Marjorie Taylor Greene on the ballot, Republicans have every reason to be concerned.
Perhaps the best response to Greene’s rant came from Twitter:
MTG: “Elect us and we will bring you misery and death, while we enrich ourselves!”

That’d make one hell of a bumper sticker. Maybe Margie can have some printed up.
