They’re afraid of losing the MAGAbot vote.

Is there anybody on sdmb that is from her district? If so, can you give us an idea of the type of people that voted her in to congress?

And Trump assured everyone that if he was POTUS, Ukraine would never have been invaded because he has a close personal relationship with Putin, and he could have prevented it. By saying, “Pretty please, be nice for me Vladdy-Bear.” Or something.

Come to think of it there is a fourth possibility that sort of combines all three of the ones above. Putin supported Trump over Clinton/Biden, therefor he is one of the “good” guys. After all, what’s a bit of genoncide when compared to the horror of having a trans woman doing her business in the stall next to yours.

Because that would make her stronger. MTG was elected to do one thing, piss off Democrats. If the Democrats rant against her it will show her constituency that she is doing a great job.

Yeah, everyone knows they’re in the aisle with the . . . um, nevermind what I know about that. But I’d expect her to do an in-person investigation, complete with video. Then maybe she could do one of those “unboxing” videos that all the kids are into nowadays. Urgh.

If they are, they’re using the wrong type of blasting material.

She’s said and done so many stupid fucking things, that you’d think it would be pretty easy for a quick, or even medium, witted person to eviscerate her in like a town hall setting where she’s trapped. Dems take the high road a little bit too much. When one of her colleagues in the House calls her “the gentlelady from Georgia”, I know that decorum is being maintained, but I still want to puke.

For a Democrat to blast MTG would only greatly enhance her image. An R who is being attacked by the enemy must be a good R, so the logic goes.

Do the bulk of Rs actually like her being the face of the party? Is she like an organ grinder’s monkey? Everybody laughs and throws a tip.

She has committee assignments and she won her reelection easily. So, the bulk of R voters in her district and the bulk of R House members must be fine with her.

Or they agree with her. Until they make it clear otherwise, I’m assuming they do.

Do you hear them say otherwise? Then, yes, they do. This is today’s GOP. Her views are the mainstream GOP views.

A couple of little kids debating any subject are honing their communication skills and exercising logical thought. It’s just good practice. MTG is mcuh, much dumber than that.

The scariest thing is that she actually has a four year degree from a university.

Do those kids have a messageboard yet? Because I’ve got some strong, oddly specific opinions on the subject.

Her logic (if you’ll forgive the idea) is likely “They can only catch a certain percentage of smuggled shipments, so if they’ve seized X just imagine how much more is getting through.”

But she’s either too stupid to make that idea plain, or smart enough (I know) to understand that saying so would sound critical of CBP.

Yes, I’ve seen that logic often. It’s a neat win-win for these jokers; if numbers go down it means Biden isn’t catching enough, and if it goes up it means that there are even more not being caught.
