Democrats want to make Marjorie Taylor Greene the face of the GOP
The DCCC is funding a $500,000 ad campaign tying vulnerable Republicans to the extremist Congress member.

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) has increasingly become a thorn in Republican leaders’ side due to her advocacy for various disturbing conspiracy theories. And now Democrats are seeking to weaponize her reputation to their benefit ahead of 2022’s midterm elections.

The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) is launching a $500,000 television and online ad blitz against vulnerable House Republicans that ties them to Greene and to her support of the QAnon conspiracy theory, which falsely claims powerful Democrats are part of a cabal of cannibal pedophiles.

The ad buys are one step in an escalating campaign Democrats are waging against the Congress member, in which they seek to deplatform her in Congress while fundraising off the controversies surrounding her.

Greene has come under fire recently over conspiracy theories she has embraced on social media, which run the gamut from racist and anti-Semitic claims to 9/11 and Parkland shooting denial. Before her election, she also liked posts calling for the execution of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and baselessly asserting that former Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton murders children.

1. Should be easy since Right Wing Talkers are going all in supporting her.

[onecaliberal]

2. She IS the face. None of them has the intestinal fortitude to shut her down & kick her to the curb.

3. Majorie Taylor Greene is indeed one of the faces of the GOP among others. She is one face among many

[sweetloukillbot]

4. If the Republicans want to make AOC and Omar the faces of the Democratic Party...

I see no reason not to return the favor with Greene, Cawthorn and Boebert...

11. On point

Exactly

5. Until they all denounce her, she is the face of the GOP.

Republicans do it all the time. They do it with Nancy Pelosi (who legitimately, until Biden was elected, was the face of the Democratic Party) and with AOC (who is a rising star but not the face of the Dems). AOC has views and policies that are not supported by the Democratic caucus as a whole and there has been Democratic push back on them.

The Senate Minority leader making a general statement but not naming names directly is weak compared to the pushback on AOC by the Democratic leadership and AOC's views are NOTHING like what Greene is espousing.

6. Moron Traitor Greene IS the new face of the Radical Republican Reich, formerly Republican party.

7. Because she

is in many of them!

8. It's too late for the Democrats to make tRUMP and Marj anything. The reTHUGS have already

proved that they ARE the party of corruption. All the Democrats can do is remind everyone of
that.

9. the gop wants her to be the face too.

[mnmoderatedem]

10. By All Means

if they don't want to rebuke her, denounce her, discipline her in any way, make her the face of the GOP. Make it hurt.

Go for it!!

12. K&R, this works more to define the qGOP to qGOP and depress their votes. They don't like looking in

... the mirror and will deny her existence if the middle sees her as heinous as she acts.

13. K&R

14. That's like trying to make the White House white

She already IS the face of the Republican Party. It's up to them to change that--assuming they're even interested.

[Brother Mythos]

15. I think it's a great plan.

And, the Democratic Party should keep it up until the Republicans themselves finally decide to dump her, in the hope that doing so will cut their future election losses.
