Prominent conservative women are laying waste to the MAGA patriarchy.
Donald Trumps movement has been constructed around a manufactured aesthetic of hypermasculinity and performative bravado. This has been marketed to the presidents followers as something to aspire toward, and yet it seems some of the conservative movements most recognizable women arent too satisfied with the state of MAGA masculinity.
During a Tuesday appearance on The View, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene rebuked weak Republican men in her party for what she deemed to be a failure to enact Trumps agenda. The Georgia Republican, who has been denouncing congressional GOP leadership amid the government shutdown, recently told The Washington Post: Theres a lot of weak Republican men, and theyre more afraid of strong Republican women. So they always try to marginalize the strong Republican women that actually want to do something and actually want to achieve.
And earlier this week, Greene publicly criticized pathetic Republican men for attacking me for going on Bill Mahers show and The View.
Sorry Im not sorry I dont obey Republican mens demands that I, as a woman, dont remain seen but not heard, she wrote on X.
I love sharing this video too. Enjoy!

(7,794 posts)Nope. Not buying it. I agree with the GOP toxic masculinity problem, and not okay with this faux epiphany.

(4,094 posts)it must be that republicans, who are mostly men, have been talking about how toxic she is and there maybe a push behind the scenes to get rid of her, so now she is fighting back. She is a piece of s%^&t, she needs to be taken out of politics, she demeans politics, and civility.
Her claim that republican men are not pushing trump's agenda? Of course they are, all the destruction that trump is doing is with their consent, that they are weak because they do consent to all the garbage? Yes, that is true, but it has nothing to do with not pushing the agenda of destruction and treason.
I would not even post anything Greene says or does, she must be left as a bad memory, nothing more.

(446 posts)She claims the MTG stuff is kickback because trump told not to run for Georgia Senator race. I think Greens rhetoric is just that, bullshit rhetoric. I dont buy if for one sec. IF YOU WANT TO BELIEVE SHES CHANGED
YOU ARE FALLING INTO THE RAT TRAP.
SHEll BE BACK

She's NOT allowed to wander around the rest of the place without approved escorts tho, if you get what I'm sayin.
Besides. This is how freedom of choice always starts with republicans...with 'my' freedom.
Besides besides, she's not wrong on this.

(35,075 posts)Where have you been mtg? Have you been paying attention to the "trad wife" movement and all that other bullshit? And the irony is that the women who are pushing for it are anything but trad.
Charlie Kirk pushed that lifestyle but now his wife is heading up Turning Point. Candice Owens says to make your husband a sandwich but she too is a working mom.
They believe other women should be quiet, barefoot and pregnant (or babysitting) but not themselves. Unfortunately, it doesn't work that way. The things they are promoting, if successful, will affect all women, including them.
