someone look up how many times she's called others traitors...

How about the death threats she was responsible for via the Family America Project? Or when she wrote fake news stories about conspiracy theories with evidence she fabricated?
I'm not happy the face eating leopards are powerful enough to ruin her life, but I'm not going to go out of my way to protect her from the monsters she helped create.

Conservatives. Can't relate until it's direct affecting you. Just how many families suffered death threats due to her bullshit?
Archangel1313@lemmy.ca · 56 pts · 276d
She was one of the worst offenders for "directly fueling" right-wing death threats against everyone else, for years. Now she wants sympathy?
Go fuck yourself, Marge. Karma's a bitch.

She's a good case study for how conservatism is fueled by a lack of empathy.

At moments like these we should all take stock, reconnect with our humanity, take a deep breath, hold that for a moment, step back and remember that Marjorie Taylor Greene accused Parkland shooting survivors of being paid actors.

Lets remember this poor child though. It's all well and good that MTG is a terrible person, but lets not forget how terribly her son is suffering from having her as a mom.

Poor magic the gathering:(

Years of being a cunt to the left and she had nothing to fear; a couple weeks of pissing off the right and she has to go into witness protection.
Hmm, I wonder why.

AWW, Boo Hoo! Who could have possibly seen this outcome?
IrateAnteater@sh.itjust.works · 17 pts · 276d
I'm actually kind of surprised. I always figured she'd be one of the dumber rats that end up drowning because they're too stupid to jump off the sinking ship.
Lemmyoutofhere@lemmy.ca · 9 pts · 276d
She was too dumb to stay on the ship, and just kinda fell off.

Trump is a woman hating piece of shit. THAT SAID, MTG is doing this and raising this ruckus so that she can become a feminist icon. She wants to be the face of American TERF.
shalafi@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 276d
She's simply getting ahead of Trump going down over dementia and the Epstein Files. LOL, looks like they're ALL trying to get ahead. Not sure I've seen a bill pass both houses of Congress with 1 lonely dissenter.

MTG is anti-abortion, anti-contraceptive, and talks about women being the "weaker sex" and belonging to their husbands. She's rabidly trans-exclusionary but by no measure can she be called a radical feminist.

Logic has no place in MTG's universe.

OMG it must be horrible for a grown adult to be harassing a child like that. How horrible for her and her family.

Conservatives are not hearing real news. If you take a gander at the reddit conservative sub-reddit, they are talking about Walz and Omar as if they did fraud because "it was on their watch." Also, Kelsey Grammer says trump is the greatest president, lol.
MTG breaks that bubble. I see now why they're trying so hard to attack her.
shalafi@lemmy.world · 8 pts · 276d
A point I've been screaming about since Trump 1.0! These people are not exposed to the media we are exposed to. The scroll their FB feed, watch Fox News, maybe what they've inadvertently trained YouTube to show, no idea what's going on in the world.
MTG is in their feeds! That cannot stand.

Man, how braindead do you have to be to call Trump the "greatest President"?
ivanafterall@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 276d
Kelsey Grammer-level braindead.

Accuse him of being a pedophile then. Or just go away and be forgotten.

Can’t till the end of the first week of January. Gotta get that sweet retirement money.

Interestingly, this is one of the few times I agree with Trump on something - we both think MTG is a traitor. Of course, I think she's a traitor because of her constantly working to undermine the constitution, while he thinks she's a traitor because she didn't vote how he wanted once.

The only way they'll learn is when it personally affects them. When some crazy MAGA terrorist kills or attacks MTG suddenly the far right are violent domestic terrorists... but only once it affects some MAGA politician.
johnyreeferseed@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 6 pts · 276d
Yea right, they'll spend a week saying it was a trans Democrat, when it eventually comes out it was actually a guy with a car covered in Trump stickers you'll never hear about it again.

Good! Maybe next she can take a long tour of the bowling ball factory during tornado season.

God damnit. Now I'm wondering how much a bowling ball would be effected by a tornado. So thanks for that.

She has has spent years frothing and drooling like a lunatic, screaming spittle at school shooting victims, blaming natural disasters on Jewish space lasers, labeling LGBTQ people as groomers and child molesters.
But look what a sad pathetic nothing she is now that daddy Hitler called her bluff. She thought MAGA would declare her Trump's successor by standing up to him (make no mistake there is not an ounce of good in her).
There's not even the tiniest spark of fight in ANY of these flacid cockroaches. When Trump dies it really is over for them.

Is MTG on some sort of redemption tour? MTG, of everyone?
Makes ya think, if there is hope for her...?
Pelicanen@sopuli.xyz · 8 pts · 274d
There isn't, she's grifting and trying to get pity for something that she has done and gladly would do again to other people. She's making sure to leave office right after she has become eligible for retirement benefits, it was never about something other than getting money and attention.
