Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene seems to understand what everyone else does: the Republican Party is not going anywhere.
The far-right lawmaker told Steve Bannon on Real America’s Voice that her colleagues wouldn’t back her effort to remove Joe Biden from office.
“The Republicans always have their rear ends up and can’t figure out how to use the power the people gave us,” Greene yelled.
“People are sick and tired of a feckless and useless Republican Party that never does a damn thing to stop any of this,” the far-right congressman said in reference to the large number of people coming into the U.S. from the south.
Democrats would agree with some of Greene’s complaints of the GOP, but not all of them. She still doesn’t understand that she is just as much to blame for the problems in her party as anyone else. She tried to get rid of Speaker Mike Johnson over money for help to Ukraine but failed, which made many Republicans in Congress dislike her. She took over a meeting about the Justice Department to insult Representative Jasmine Crockett, and for that she became a trademarked meme.
Instead of putting forward any important legislation herself, she is now trying to cut off funding to the state of New York after Donald Trump was found guilty of a felony in his hush-money trial.
Green also tried to show off by criticizing Dr. Anthony Fauci in a subcommittee meeting on Monday. Fauci shot him down and the Republican chair scolded Green. Even her complaints about Biden’s immigration policy might not be true. For example, Democrats have said that his most recent order limiting asylum is too similar to Trump’s policies.
It might dawn on Greene one day that she is part of the reason the Republican Party has so many problems. Or her angry voters will force her to lose the election. But that’s not likely to happen this November in the Georgia 14th, which is a very red area.
