Source tells me that roughly half the House GOP conference gave Marjorie Taylor Greene a standing ovation after she rose to speak a few min ago.

(302 posts)They are fawning over her despite her caddy, dangerous, irrational rants with no regard to the consequences or to proper decorum. No different than what they did for Trump himself. She is fulfilling the Fascist fantasies of the Radical wing of what we used to call the Republican party and they are putting a big bet on a fading voter base.

I always knew there were people like them in America -- I never knew how many -- and I certainly didn't think there were so many in our government.
She is getting a lot of donations for the party. that's what they care about.

(38,726 posts)...About half will support the stupid fool, and the other half will point out that this is a "stupid fool"
If the "stupid fool" shuts the fuck up, the war will subside and the "stupid fool" will regain a "minor status"
But the ..........."standing ovation"...generally incites the fool to be...more stupid...Why?
simple...............Stupid is Still Stupid.....If the fool listens to long time professionals...she
will shut up......................................................................................................................
..Otherwise....Sara Palin 2 has arrived and this is a .very mean version
