I was attacked and screamed at in 2018 by an insane woman named Marjorie Taylor Greene.

Hate when that happens. I was attacked and screamed at in 2018 by an insane woman named Marjorie Taylor Greene. She had no respect for the privacy of me as an 18 year old school shooting survivor or my staff.
She was self righteous, insane, and completely out of control.

She is decrying the VERY BEHAVIOR that started her political career. Like a serial killer decrying all the senseless ritualistic killing happening recently.

Thing is that she can be lying, but she is so stupid that she quite possibly may not be self aware enough to even notice the hypocrisy.

Amber Ruffin, a comedian and former writer for Seth Meyers has a show and she did a skit where she had Greene coming to the mail slot in Amber's door like Greene did with AOC. Amber then asks Greene follow up questions and Greene yells out, "Stop bullying me!"

Watching it, I felt the same mix of horror, embarrassment, and disbelief that I felt so many times watching TFG do things that I never thought I'd ever see a president do. He and MTG are truly birds of a feather. They both have the same overinflated sense of their own importance and the same complete and utter lack of both propriety and shame.

Neither of them is fit to associate with civilized humans, much less hold public office.

I wouldn't insult a little Pekingese like that! She did look out of place wearing a coat with a fur edged hood. I'm so embarrassed & ashamed by that woman! I live in Ga. & I saw how she moved from Alpharetta to Rome just so she could scam that seat in Congress. The really sad thing is, the people in Rome are probably happy with what she's doing!

She is slow witted and brutish in her execution of things. She shows a lack of understanding of basic things. Either that, or she is the BEST Andy Kauffman type comedian ever.

Getting attention and being in the news has relatively little to do with a person's level of intelligence. People are drawn to spectacle. Making stupid and outlandish statements will draw a reaction. It is not rocket science or brain surgery.

If I wanted to, I could get attention and be in the news, but I think about the consequences of my actions on other people more than I think about attention that I might want in the moment.

Greene is absolutely stupid. The problem is that she belongs to a political party FULL of stupid people who think that what she is doing and saying is valid, and that party is backed by very wealthy and powerful people who don't care about the spectacle as long as they get to make and keep more money than they can ever possibly need.

The problem for Greene is that she is constantly painting herself into a smaller and smaller corner. She needs to go bigger and be more extreme to keep her audience. She may get a more devoted audience, but as she gets more extreme, the audience will become smaller and louder, until she burns out.

Tue Feb 28, 2023, 10:00 PM
Feb 2023

… she is likely close to the “stupid” axis. She derives a benefit from her actions - publicity and power within her party (because of her following among the cult base). Since a stupid person is one who takes action that harms both themselves and others, she shares the characteristics of a bandit more than a stupid person.

However, you’ve pointed out that her actions may ultimately cause her harm if taken too far, and that’s something to think about. If that occurs, she might cross the vertical axis and meet the criteria of Cipolla’s 3rd law.

Truth doesn't hang around very long in that ones consciousness, nor does accountability.
It's really like an open-air container; the slightest breeze and truth just blows away.
But stupid, hate, and arrogance...well they never ever leave. They stick like glue.

the mirror mtg, you have done the same to others. You were an ABSOLUTE embarrassment at the State of The Union address. You followed a teenager around yelling and screaming your filth at him. I am fairly sure you most likely did it to others as well. If our country is gone, it’s because of people like you MTG.
