The far-right congresswoman has increasingly broken ranks with the MAGA movement, leading even Donald Trump to wonder ‘What's going on with Marjorie?’
Marjorie Taylor Greene has hit out at her fellow Republicans for "doing nothing" about rising food and healthcare costs in her latest breach with the Trump administration.
In an interview with the conservative broadcaster Real America's Voice on Tuesday, the Georgia congresswoman warned that letting Joe Biden's Affordable Care Act subsidies expire at the end of the year would "crush" Americans' finances.
Those subsidies are now at the heart of a government shutdown that's lasted 15 days and counting. Senate Democrats are demanding the subsidies be extended as a condition of reopening the government while Republicans are refusing to budge.

Now the ship is on fire. That loud, annoying rat is loudly abandoning ship. She may act dumb, but she's making some smart decisions (for her own preservation) right now.

I think her being the "smart" one should tell us something about the rest of the Republicans. She's not the smart one. The rest of them are confident in the fascists ability to hold power through state violence. She appears smart because she's reacting to the unfavorable view most people have of the administration (while remaining loyal to Trump and never calling him out by name).
She's not being fed talking points now; so she actually is just defaulting to a somewhat reasonable position from shit she sees as popular.
She's not a part of the main leadership and she has only ever made a name for herself by being "more radical". Well, the Democrats are limp dicks and the Republicans are rounding up people and putting them in labor camps. The only move she has is to literally just say reasonable shit to remain relevant.

If you only take into context the things that we agree on over the past month or so, her opinions on those topics are bleeding heart liberal. I wouldn't say the Overton window has shifted so much as I would say she's presenting a persona to save her bacon and trying to not get voted out next election.

She recently was on Tim Dillon podcast and my impression of the situation: She’s a duplicitous lip-server. Shes delusional enough to rationalize the impending healthcare disaster the dems point to as actually “lapses in Obamacare”, not at all because the BBB bill just passed by her party. Also, she is just protesting with dems where convenient because she is capitalizing on some popularity internal to MAGA. It’s easy to hold her party leaders to account and follow through on promises if that means getting some leverage later on.

If you're referring to Elizabeth II, she wasn't the queen of England, she was queen of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland (along with being the monarch of several other independent kingdoms.) The "Queen of England" title hasn't been used to refer to the well-known British monarch since the early 18th century, which means that the GP poster must descend from a secret royal line that's been operating in the shadows, waiting for the correct moment to reveal themselves to the world.

"The House is not in session, which I think is inexcusable. Mike Johnson should be calling us back. Because we should be working, not only on our appropriations but building an offramp off of Obamacare for the American people... and passing president Trump's agenda and executive orders."
Can't help but feel like she's not so much breaking ranks with Trump - but instead she has said one or two things that the media has spun up to make it sound that way for clickbait headlines.
SnotFlickerman@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 46 pts · 301d
I mean... she voted for the healthcare subsidies to expire by voting for the Big Bullshit Bill.
I feel like she's just playing the usual games here. She could have not voted for the BBB. The Democrats are simply trying to roll back changes that were made in the BBB.
So, was she just an idiot who didn't read the bill (possible) or just playing the rotating villain (more probable imho).

Go back 10 years, and if you told anyone that anything like this was even possible, much less probable, likely, you would be called insane.
And that's not a hypothetical, because I did, and I was.

I mean 'American Exceptionalism' not as being literally true in any sense, I mean it in the actual Political Science / Sociological sense of attempting to differentiate various democracies and their behaviors from each other.
'American Exceptionalism' is ... or was, basically our national ethos, a kind of shared, secular religion, a subtext that was basically always present, referred back to often, but not as often just directly stated.
We did, for quite a long time, just quite arrogantly think we were special, basically magically so, immune from or indifferent to many things that all societies have to grapple with.
So, now our core cultural identity has been revealed to be entirely bullshit, and as a result, basically everyone is having a psychotic break / existential crisis / nihlistic withdrawal ...all the time.
But anyway, yes, I totally agree with you that in the 20th century, it really all does just boil down to not having our own territory being literally blown to oblivion in WW2, and then misinterpreting that obviously leading to roughly one generation of massively abnormal economic gains... as proof that we are just magically amazing, the 'indespensible nation' that was leading the world to the 'end of history', all that bullshit.
EDIT:
As an addendum to that last paragraph...
The Boomers are the worst thing that has ever happened to this country, they lived in the literal best economic boom anywhere in the world, in the entire 20th century, at least if you simplify down to capitalist economies...
... and they think that was all them, and they had it tough actually.
No, they are the luckiest and most spoiled and delusional generation in American history.
And they continuously voted to destroy everything that underpinned their own opulence from possibly carrying forward onto other subsequent generatioms.

Idk. She hasn't done anything nearly as grifter-y as a typical Republican, especially the QAnon type. She was into QAnon back when it was an obscure movement and hasn't really grifted people with it through the usual currency exchange scams, crypto tokens, etc. I think she's a true believer in her principles, it's just that she's an incredibly stupid and incompetent person and those principles are stupid as well. I don't know if someone who is incredibly stupid and easily swayed who actually has principles is better or worse than someone who is actually competent but has no principles and is only driven by greed and personal gain.

I think the Bushes were evil people who did evil things and I'll never forgive them.for all the damage they caused. But I also don't think they were unpatriotic. They believed in what they did and thought they were making society better.
I think MTG is the really stupid, slightly more evil version of that. She really wants to make things better, but not for everyone. But when she clearly sees that the people she does care about (uaully right-wing racist trash) are being hurt, she wants to make things better for them.

She's still a "Jewish Space Lasers" QAnon conspiracy nut, gaslit into being a modern US equivalent of a Nazi... until she demonstrates otherwise. And that is deeply tied to that same moral backbone we see on display, of her trying to hold Trump to his word.
The fact that she's running to the Left of 95% of the Democratic Party in the federal government is telling, and how deep the incentives go within the power structures.
She has everything she needs to be the first woman president of the United States.

jj4211@lemmy.world · 7 pts · 301d
Not sure. She was politically inactive until MAGA/QAnon triggered her to become an active outsider. Trump's first term was relatively milquetoast economically. He did do China trade war stuff, but overall mild. He didn't impose so many tariffs and largely left the resident immigrants alone, fixated on the border instead. To the extent she might have been dissatisfied, she was on the outside and the blaming if deep state and for the last half of the term, obstructionist Democrat rhetoric worked.
Then she became an insider, but an insider to an opposition party for the Biden presidency. Their blaming Biden and performative opposition still worked even on the inside.
Now she is on the inside of a party that has all the control she imagined and is seeing the administration double down on the most destructive policies and seeing first hand her party pretty much doing nothing except letting Trump unilaterally do whatever.
I think she was a naive gullible true believer and is perhaps finding out that no one actually is sincerely with her in the power structure.
She's a fool and racist, but I think this is sincere.

The enemy of my enemy is not my friend, but I will always high five someone when they're doing the right thing. Even a broken clock is right twice a day. Trust however... trust is earned.

Why would they? They don't care and never have.

WTF has gotten into her lately? The world is upside down. Nothing makes sense anymore!

Her words are hardly “breaking with the Trump administration” if you read the article. At least that’s how I’m looking at it. She’s saying why aren’t we Republicaning harder.

Nah.. she wants a future political career outside the house, but apparently the crazy laser woman game only works in her current district of burn-the-world-down rednecks...
Now that she helped set the world on fire and the polls are in, she'll change tack like an everyday boring sleazy politician.

Read the article.

I did ... and I am aware of additional reporting outside this article, that suggests she has ambitions beyond her current station.

Your comment makes absolutely no sense in light of what she said.

It's not perfectly aligned with your comment, I'll give you that.
The republican party is still the best fit for space laser lady, only because it is the only party where conspiracy nutjobs stand a chance.
She doesn't give a flip about fixing the republican party, but purely about her polling and chances in the future. That she is capable of this pivot suggests that there is more sleazy politician to her than nutjob. Neither is praiseworthy.
