WASHINGTON — Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., is angling to be Donald Trump's running mate in 2024, according to two people who have spoken to the firebrand second-term congresswoman about her ambitions.

"This is no shrinking violet, she's ambitious — she's not shy about that, nor should she be," said Steve Bannon, the former top Trump aide who hosts the War Room podcast, where Greene has been a guest.

"She sees herself on the short list for Trump's VP. Paraphrasing Cokie Roberts, when MTG looks in the mirror she sees a potential president smiling back," he added, referencing Roberts, the late political reporter who worked for NPR, ABC News and other outlets.



........



It also helps explain why she threw herself into helping elect Rep. Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., speaker of the House after the midterm elections and took assignments on two committees — Homeland Security and Oversight and Accountability — where she can participate in high-profile investigations of President Joe Biden's administration. McCarthy also tapped her to be part of the panel investigating how the government handled the COVID-19 pandemic.......................................

1. Way to hitch your wagon to a dying horse.

[Botany]

6. "Hitch your wagon to a dying horse." 14th Amendment Section 3 Covers both TFG and MTG

No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice-President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any State, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any State legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any State, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof. But Congress may by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability.

[Autumn]

23. That doesn't apply to those two. Congress has turned their head the other way

and Trump, nor she will ever be punished for their part.

[Irish_Dem]

2. We all knew this is what she was doing, she wants to be POTUS.

VP is just a stepping stone.

[Turbineguy]

5. Putin would support that.

Maybe she's too crazy for him.

[Irish_Dem]

8. She is more cunning and focused than Trump.

She is a stronger character and capable of even more treachery than Trump.
A good Putin asset I think.

[PatSeg]

30. That is so true

She could do so much more damage than Trump and it would be intentional on her part, not just the result of reckless, impulsive behavior.

That said, I don't think Trump would settle for someone who would take the spotlight off him much of the time. He prefers shrinking violets that he can dominate and upstage.

[Irish_Dem]

45. Can you imagine a DeSantis/MTG ticket?

Yes MTG is much more dangerous than Trump. And paired with someone
like DeSantis we are crossing into pure evil territory.

If you recall over the summer MTG was fawning in public about Trump and including Melania
in the nauseating adoration. It appeared to me then that Melania was not a MTG fan
and had said so to Trump. Usually Trump minions do not kiss Melania's a** like MTG was
doing.

Or perhaps there had been some MTG and Trump hanky panky and MTG was trying
to cover it up. At any rate, I figured it was curtains for MTG's dream of the VP spot.

At any rate MTG was really working Trump.

But I agree with you 100% Trump most likely would not go for MTG.
She is not his type, he likes women to look a certain way.
And she is too strong, too attention seeking. Yes he will look for a female Pence.

[PatSeg]

59. Yes, a female Pence

Someone with no particular opinions and undying loyalty to Mein Hair. She would probably look good as well, nice window dressing so to speak.

I agree, I cannot see Melania liking Margie at all. A little too trashy, loud, and tacky for Melania's taste. Ha, ha, of course Melania chose Donald Trump for a husband, so doesn't get much trashier than that!

[Irish_Dem]

61. He loves a certain type female.

If you notice all the women around Trump, they all look the same.

LOL exactly. When you are too trashy and tacky for Melania that is saying something.
But MTG really fits that bill. Makes Melania look like Grace Kelly.

[PatSeg]

64. Yes, Trump likes Mannequin type women

or live Barbie dolls, nothing real looking.

Greene is just about as trashy as they come. I've known loud, in-your-face women like her, but never expected to see one in Congress.

[Irish_Dem]

65. Gaetz, MTG, Boebert, Santos. The new face of the GOP.

Ridiculous buffoons, ignorant, foolish, loud mouths, attention seeking and rule violating wonders.

This is no coincidence. This is what the GOP is looking for.

Putin likes it too. Makes the US look weak, foolish, irresponsible.

[PatSeg]

71. That is the kind of people

the republican party sought out for their votes, but at the time, they never expected those kinds of voters to ever end up running for public office AND winning. They only wanted to use them every two years and then put them back on the shelf after making them promises they never intended to keep.

[Irish_Dem]

74. The GOP saw who the voters were and selected candidates in their image.

Yes the GOP leaders have no intention of working for the people.
They either do nothing or feather the nest of their funding sources.
Perfect example of a corrupt political system.

[3auld6phart]

73. Great team

These clowns will accomplish what Jefferson Davi’s and his band o ignorant losers failed to do back in the
day. Bring the United States to its knees. How bloody sad.

[Irish_Dem]

70. What kind of man needs to be surrounded by plastic surgery Barbie dolls?

Says a lot about him.

[area51]

67. +1, Perjury Traitor ex-Greene

is way too plain-looking for arrogant #DementiaDonnie; if he were to pick a female, it'd probably be Qari Lake or Kristie Noem.

[Irish_Dem]

69. Yes he must be surrounded by women he thinks are good looking.

[FakeNoose]

47. She's wasting her time, Chump won't run for anything in 2024

[Irish_Dem]

49. I agree, maybe that is why she is (literally) kissing up to McCarthy.

She is trying to get him to run for POTUS and she can be his VP.
After all he is never ever going to leave her.

[riversedge]

54. She should know that divorces happen!!

[Irish_Dem]

56. She should, her husband just filed this summer.

He had enough after she gallivanted all over the country with Matt Gaetz.
Cosy smiling pictures all over the internet.

Now McCarthy sounds head over heels in love.
Making public statements.

MTG never did hide her affairs.

[peppertree]

3. They should form a comedy troupe

Large and Marge.

[Chipper Chat]

12. Apricot and Traitortot.

[peppertree]

24. Even better!

[PatSeg]

31. What a terrifying image!

[peppertree]

51. The face of modern American fascism

And it ain't purdy.

(but what worries me is the money behind modern American fascism)

[PatSeg]

60. Yes, that is where the real danger lies

[IronLionZion]

4. Then Bobo can hitch her wagon to DeSanctimonius

These 2 pairs of loony toons can destroy each other Wile E Coyote style

[Stuart G]

52. I always felt sorry for Wilie E. Poor Wilie E. He always seems to be fallling off a cliff.

Poor Wilie E..................................

and you won't believe this one..........................I met the director of Wiley E. toons once...Chuck Jones.........

and got his autograph.......It is on a picture frame in my basement..

Chuck Jones was my hero!!!!!

[NullTuples]

7. "She sees herself as..."

That means nothing. Unless she's in his head in the minutes before he actually makes his "big announcement" (which the media will do doubt fawn over and make front page news)...how she sees herself is irrelevant.

Why, it's almost like she just needed some attention.

[PatSeg]

32. True

Can't let a news cycle pass without being in it.

[Astraea]

9. And I,

am going to be the Queen of England someday.

[aeromanKC]

10. Please proceed

[Diamond_Dog]

11. I think

As odious and as shallow as Trump is, he will want to be seen aside a woman who’s a looker, and Marge ain’t a looker.

[YoshidaYui]

13. It would be like Raising the Titantic

only the front half would fall off and the rest would sink again.

[Mr.Bill]

14. Hilarious.

We can only hope.

Is it legal in Georgia to run for congress and VP at the same time? If not it would be a good way to get her out of Congress.

[joanbarnes]

15. I just threw up

[marmar]

16. The "If Sh*t Could Take a Dump" Presidential ticket

[Auggie]

53. ROFL

[Mike Nelson]

17. Hmm...

... I was thinking of Kari Lake - but either one would be great!

[bluestarone]

18. Kari Lakes gonna be very jealous and

PISSED!

[MontanaMama]

25. Yes!!!!

Can't wait for the tweet fight between those two.

[DavidDvorkin]

19. Oh, please!

[tanyev]

20. And if Donny managed to win, he would need to really, really watch his back.

[ZonkerHarris]

21. Read the room lady. Sharp political instincts there, huh?

[emulatorloo]

22. Remind me again, when is Steve Bannon headed to jail?

I know he’ll only be in jail for a few months, but hopefully he won’t have his bullshit show while he’s there.

[usaf-vet]

26. She might want to ask Stormy Daniels what it takes to get on Trump's good side. But maybe she is....

.... willing to do whatEVER it takes.

[brush]

34. Oh, she's not above that at all. Her husband divorced her...

and it's rumored because of affairs she had in Washington.

[usaf-vet]

35. Ok, so as the Brits would say, "she is shagging her way to the top!"?

[brush]

36. Check. She's trying to. She's not that great looking though...

so she'll only get so far.

[usaf-vet]

38. Agreed but that could still be a very dangerous spot considering the lunacy existing in D.C. and....

.... across the country.

Look at Trump; he is a lying lunatic who worked his way to "the most powerful man in the world."

[brush]

40. Yes, after trump got elected, anything is possible.

[usaf-vet]

43. A little ray of light is poking thru in Georgia. I hope that the national lunatics' reign of......

... terror will start to recede with criminal indictments of multiple individuals in Georgia.

The "find me 11,780 votes is all I need." An audio recording of TFG demands.

[MontanaMama]

27. The delusion is strong

with this one.

[Paper Roses]

28. Sickening that some have fallen so low to support this idiot..

There is a long list if idiots that would equal MTG. All give he a stomach ache.
I hope I live long enough to see tRump in jail and the rest of his cohorts back home flipping burgers or behind bars. How did we come to this?

[not fooled]

29. And a bunch of idiots that would vote for her

After red don got installed in the WH, nothing is beneath this country. With enough money and propagandizing, she could be made palatable to enough people to get the election close enough to put her in. As long as she remains a front for big money, she's viable.

Hope I'm wrong but I'm not chuckling over this news. She would be the death knell for the U.S.

[maddogesq]

33. All I can say is...

[Trueblue1968]

37. ha ha ha STUPID WOMAN ha ha ho ho ho DUMB BARBIE BUNNY lolololol

?1670866444335

[Skittles]

42. every time I see her I think: CRO MAGNON

seriously - I do

[littlemissmartypants]

68. You're not alone. ❤️

[Bayard]

39. I started laughing just reading the headline

Marge, if you're thinking TFG is still a viable candidate, and won't be indicted/on trial by 2024, you are just intentionally stupid.

[Blue Owl]

41. Blubber and Steroids

[Grins]

44. To steal from Ben Bolt...

“For Trump? Why Margie, it profits a man nothing to give his soul for the whole world...but for Trump?”

[patphil]

46. I think that's a great idea. TFG and MTG...an absolutely losing combination if ever I saw one.

[hibbing]

48. "firebrand", sounds positive n/t

[Evolve Dammit]

50. A call to arms would not surprise me with Mr. Coup and Ms. Ammosexual.

[Cha]

55. Does that mean she'll get the Fuck

Outta Congress?!!!!!

[twodogsbarking]

57. She is his type.

[nwduke]

58. And you thought Sarah Palin

was a lunatic, MT (minus the G) (maybe MTT: you figure it out) She brings lunacy to a new level!

[Javaman]

62. I hope so. that means she would have to give up her seat.

that's also why I want desatan to run as well.

let them all run and lose.

I can't find a better way to get this evil bastards out of office.

[LudwigPastorius]

63. We know how Trump picks the people around him.

They must simply be A) complete spineless sycophants, and B) look like they came from Central Casting.

Marjo's got the first part down, but to meet Trump's sexist standards, she better start investing in some plastic surgery.

[Polybius]

66. Even Trump isn't dumb enough to do this

It will be Kristi Noem or Byron Donalds (but Trump would have to change his residency for him).

[JustABozoOnThisBus]

72. I don't think it's about being dumb. ...

... Trump would be jealous of the attention she would draw. Some news articles would be about her, not about Trump. This is unacceptable.

He needs to find another Pence, someone with zero personality, zero controversy, zero news-worthiness.

75. Marjorie Taylor Grendel. nt
