Summary
Far-right Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene claims that Donald Trump’s recent election win validates her position as part of “mainstream America” rather than the “fringe.”
Greene, known for her controversial conspiracy theories, argued on conservative outlet Real America’s Voice that Trump’s supporters align with her beliefs.
With speculation that she might join Trump’s cabinet, Greene asserted that loyal MAGA supporters should be prioritized for roles in his administration over newcomers like RFK Jr. and Vivek Ramaswamy, emphasizing her unwavering support for Trump and his policies.
I wonder what portion of her “support” is thinking “stfu already and gtf back to the kitchen and let the men handle this shit”.
Maybe if she becomes part of Trump’s cabinet, she can finally get control of that sweet hurricane generating tech she said exists.
Magic: The Gathering is a collectable trading card game. Not a politician.
I too cannot read “MTG” as anything other than Magic: The Gathering
At this point, she’s right. she is mainstream America as mainstream America voted trump in too
The average American is dumb, so she’s calling herself dumb, which she is. Gotta give it to her, she has some self reflection.
She kinda, sorta, has a point…
Nothing like a fringe cunt having to yell super loud about how not fringe cunty she is.
Cunt is another word for a nazi, not a woman, by the way.
She is apparently not wrong, and I hate that.
Sorry but it’s absolutely true and she’s absolutely right after this election.
America is a racist nation.
This election has shown me that my values aren’t compatible with most other Americans, and that is very hard to understand. I’m looking for the best alternative.
Fire. Swinging heavy objects.
…just a few alternatives
I’ve come to the conclusion that there is no best alternative.
Republicans are full on racist, fascist, crazy people.
Greens are all the above with the rotted veneer of liking the environment.
Libertarians are all the above plus more racist and crazy minus the environment.
Democrats are incompetent, won’t let go of being Republican-lite, and are unreliable allies like MLK warned about.
Progressives are petulant, instant gratification demanding, iPhone attention span, unreliable allies that MLK warned about.
Right now, I’m just going to go full independent and stop trying to fix any of this shit show and concentrate on just surviving and making sure my kids have an out. I’ve got no confidence in anything in this nation that isn’t better than this so fix it yourselves, I’m out.
I’ve been looking into options. Spain has my interest.
Spaniards have recently been known to throw bananas at black football (soccer in American) players, I’m not sure they’re a particularly viable alternative.
Racism is inescapable. I’m more interested in things like not for profit health care, social safety nets, public education, and in general, government that isn’t solely focused on maintaining infinite growth for corporations and a few wealthy individuals.
That is unfortunate, but also Tuesday in parts of the US. I’ll be on the lookout for a racially diverse, lgbtq+ friendly, left leaning country with socialized medicine and good educational systems, but I may need to compromise somewhere to escape in a timely manner.
Americans think they have a lock on racism. But we’re noobs at it. Europe has about 1000 years on us in that arena.
Why?
Everyone who agrees with you just didn’t vote. Sure that made trump win but the populace is stupid and doesn’t pay attention. Most ppl don’t really know how bad it will be.
There are way more of us than there are of them.
There are way more of us than there are of them.
I fear we are at the point where our numbers no longer matter. Protests will be met with violence from the state. The military will be used against political rivals. The populace will be given a mold and will be punished for breaking out of it.
Through all of this, this has more or less been the toughest pill to swallow. It’s not a vocal minority, it’s all of them. I had hopes that enough of them would be turned off by the rhetoric and rape, but I’ve been proven wrong. Absolute zero empathy for humanity. I can only hope that these worthless people are hurt first and hurt worst by the upcoming administration.
They will. The ACA is gonna be destroyed, FEMA is going to be destroyed, shit they are even going to take away the NOAA weather alerts because it will “promote climate change.” They won’t even have warnings before they hit and no money after.
Fuck them all. Especially the motherfuckers in Georgia who decided to sit this election out.
May the seas swallow them all.
No and very no.
Yes.
Nothing more normal than screaming “I’m Normal! I’m Normal! I’m Normal!” to everyone you can possibly victimize with your shrill not un-harpy-like voice.

They should install a turbine onto Carlin’s grave because he’s spinning so fast right now that he could power a small city.
That’s clean energy, the incoming government won’t care until he turns to oil.
I love that we have data to back that up now.
I don’t :/
I’m terrified that she’s right. And I think she’s right.
After Tuesday, I must conclude she is right.
I’ve never been so embarrassed about my country. The fear hasn’t even hit me yet.
Somehow even as a minority, it’s actually kind of cathartic to finally know what America is officially.
I still believe the sane people are the majority. However, they have clearly failed in their civic duties to show up to vote.
If you claim that sane people are the majority yet insane things happen, then everyone is insane.
And they want to make education worse…
She’s wrong and right at the same time…
not a right-wing extremist ❌
mainstream American ✅
I hate this clown.
MTG can just fuck off.
She’s 100% the mainstream in the south.
She’s 100% right across the country as a whole. You don’t have 15 million people missing from voting and condoning racism wholesale and not admit your a racist country.
No, she’s 25-30% of the country as a whole.
But she’s the south 100% through and through.
The terrifying thing is: The massive toxic landfill that is the south is leaking :(
Nope, every damn swing state, every Midwest State, every damn state even the blue ones that had Democrats and progressives sitting out showed me that America is A-fucking-okay with racism and misogyny.
Sorry but the nation isn’t better than this.
Yep. But try to tell them theyre at fault at least partially and they’ll just screech about Democrats for not being mind readers.
Sure but let’s not down play how fucking god awful Democratic leadership is too.
I mean honestly, the people told them, “Hey, we’re fucking idiots and we don’t understand how the economy works and we have the memory of a goldfish and forgot that Trump tanked the economy to begin with due to a completely botched COVID response but fuck you egg prices are high and I don’t understand bird flu”
And not a single leader went and said “Hey maybe we should listen to the common worker, even if they’re a little slow, and campaign hard on that since we have actual solutions!”
Sigh, just so much stupidity everywhere but still a pox on all of those non-voters for condoning all of this racist shit in the end.
Dude Trump didn’t win because more people voted for him he got the exact same amount of votes every time he ran.
Trump won this time because people didn’t vote for Kamala.
Yes, yes she is. I’m sorry to tell you that an obscene amount of americans could only be dumber if they were born as a stone. And another stupidly high part are also as evil as it comes.
Not sure about that, you shock the right kind of rock the right number of times and it can do math… you shock one of these clowns, the closest thing you’ll get them to do is meth.
