Keep an eye on Greene. She is smarter than she looks. Seems to have her finger on the local pulse.

I do want to highlight that number: Loomer posted **138 times** in 24 hours. And the ones I could stand to read are about as unhinged as you might expect.

That MTG is the one highlighting this is just gravy on this shit sundae.

Here’s the text of the post quoted above by MTG:

Just google “twitter viewer”, there are bunches of them. I don’t use any of them regularly to endorse any of them in particular, I just use the top result.

I’m not saying that I agree with her, far from it. But she is not as dumb as she looks and could be biding her time for a comeback after el donald bites the big one either literally or figuratively. She seems to have a sense for what rural America really thinks. They could be starting to see through the lies. MTG is positioning herself for then.

If by a “comeback” you mean getting elected to a local position, sure, that seems likely. But she only got a national position by riding Trump’s coattails, and couldn’t do it on her own. Certainly not with all the baggage she has now.

But I’ll agree she’s probably not going to have to settle by selling candles on Etsy or working a fast food job; she’s savvy enough to get herself a position somewhere. She’s a nut but not an idiot.

Was she in a national position? I thought she was basically nobody. She got a lot of attention by shouting loudly, but had no important job.

She’s more than an idiot. Idiot would be an improvement. Every time she speaks she makes it obvious how stupid she is.

She was the representative for Georgia’s 14th congressional district.

As much as it surprises me to say it, she has said some cogent things since she broke from Trump’s orbit.

Free from being his sycophant, she has actually criticized him and his actions.

I thought that “national position” implied some important job within the government. As a representative she was 1 in 435, and no more important than the rest. She just managed to get more attention than most do.

I would think it just means “elected to federal office”. YMMV.

435 out of 320,000,000.

In her first run, she won a primary in a runoff against the Trump-endorsed candidate but both of them were self-declared MAGA pro-Trump. Once past that, her district was so solidly Republican she never got less than 64% of the general election votes (and her predecessor routinely got 75% or ran unopposed – this year the Republican got just under 59%).

Member-of-the-House is an important office of the United States but it does not exactly make you a major national leader by itself unless you work at making yourself visible and heard to the nationwide public and influential among your colleagues. Otherwise it is a very localized office. If not for their being loud and disruptive in and out of the workplace, people like Greene, Boebert, Cawthorne, etc. would have been just backbenchers sitting there to provide enough “ayes” or “nays” to accomplish what the Leadership wanted to happen on any given day and we would hardy know them. I mean, how many people can tell off the top of their heads who is the House majority Whip? But millions can name Marge and Lauren.
