Marjorie Taylor Greene's Protest Flops

Marjorie Taylor Greene’s Protest Flops

"SNIP........

“Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) arrived to protest former President Donald Trump’s arrest in front of a New York City court Tuesday — and left within a few minutes after counter-protesters drowned out her comments with whistles and boos,” Semafor reports.

“Greene’s comments could not be heard through her megaphone over the noise, and eyewitness reports and tweets from the scene showed the congresswoman leaving the area with her bodyguards.”

There was the one facial shot in the beginning.
I have not seen pictures of her lately, but this was noticeable.

She wants to be Trump's VP and to avoid jail time for her own crimes.
Her plans are to be POTUS one day.

So she bought some airtime for a puff piece and had some work done.

ETA: And she has a rictus grin on her face as she is getting cussed out by NYC.
What a dolt.

He was a pitcher for Atlanta that loved to start stuff to the point fans of the opposing team wanted to personally beat him. He'd come out to huge boos with that same look. He absolute fed off the drama. Did every thing he could to stoke it.

Eventually every got sick of him and he had to figure out another line of work to piss people off.

Let's hope MTG gets drop kicked too. Georgia is a mess but it is changing.

Let's hope the public does the same thing to MTG.

Like Steve Schmidt says, the people in MTG's district are not pulling their weight in a democracy.

No one had described Marjorie Traitortrash Greene so perfectly as this guy. Finally, someone has made Traitortrash STFU. Amen. What a day!

she probably really thought there was going to be a gigantic turn out in support of the orange asshole. Honestly, who among her moronic minions will tell her the truth?

so out she trots, thinking she's queen shit and got hit in the face with a very rare dose of reality: people hate her.

so like a typical repuke, she blathers for a moment, then runs off like the coward she is.

In "Casa Blanca scene in which the nazi general is describing to Rick (Bogart) the nazi victories and plans for further invasions..... Rick says, "Impressive, but there are certain areas of New York that I would advise you not to try to invade".

I think it is true.

she's in the House for the attention. She has no other agenda. She's never met a media event she couldn't mug for the cameras at.

Sorry, it's not on YT or in a Tweet so it won't embed. Some great quotes, I'm not sure whether I like "hit her with the Jewish space lasers!" or the plain and simple "GET THE FUCK OUTTA HERE!" at the end.

Well, OK, not actually on CBC news...but was on CBC, and was more insightful than their (and our) "news" coverage of those idiots and is such a good fit for what was going on in NYC
