MGT accused Democrats of colluding with other worldly forces and creating Milton. She said "ask your government if the weather is being manipulated or controlled. Did you give them permission to do this? Are you paying for it? Of course you are paying for it." She said the same thing about Helene. She is feeding the mental illness that grips MAGA. This is a sitting Representative and has the full support and admiration of the Republican Candidate for President. Even Republicans are now coming out to try to explain that humans can't create or control Hurricanes all while their own and their Candidate for President is suggesting otherwise.

Marjorie Taylor Greene is a Representative, not Senator. Even for the Republican party she’s a weirdo and she’s only able to win due to the “unique” demographics of her district. She’s unlikely to be able to win a statewide race anywhere, and Senators in general tend to be less radical. Not that it makes her insanity any less insane…

  Yes you're correct, will edit my post.

  I have to disagree with you here. Most of the Senators from the GOP have been happy to share the same drivel. Indeed, Senator JD Vance and Donald Trump — arguably the most powerful men in the GOP are as unhinged as MTG.

    I predict that if Trump does not get elected, the GOP will completely drop his name and they will act as though he never existed. He is truly insane. It is unbelievable to me that the mainstream GOP - who I have always perceived as reasonable people - would back him with such loyalty. But, then again, due to his previous presidency he probably has the best odds.

      They didn’t drop him after his loss in 2020.

        Yeah because he had the opportunity to win again. He was also significantly less crazy then. As time goes on, he becomes more and more deranged.

  If the rest of the GOP actually didn't want her they could vote and expel her today.

  Greene is a top fundraiser for the republican party. Part of the reason she gets so much attention is because she is bringing in more funds than most. You can call her weird, I agree she is, but she's clearly representing a significant portion of republican voter sentiment.

  > Even for the Republican party she’s a weirdo and she’s only able to win due to the “unique” demographics of her district What are the unique demographics of her district? I know it is heavily gerrymandered to make it almost impossible for anyone other than a Republican to win the general election, but to get to be the Republican candidate in the general election they have to win the Republican primary. In every Republican primary she has won there were several other conservative Republicans who were not batshit insane and were actually well qualified to be a Representative in Congress. So why is she winning?

    Her district is mostly rural Appalachia and the Republicans that vote for her feel neglected by the mainstream branches of both parties so MTG is their political hand grenade. This is all second hand info so take it with a grain of salt.
