    Marjorie Taylor Greene ran unopposed... The guy she would have run against moved out of state and was no longer eligible to be elected... He still got 25% of the vote.

    She's like the republican versión of aoc.
    Dangerous.
    Provocative.
    Crazy/adorable.
    Politically advantageous???
    I'd say it would be okay to "boot" her if aoc were booted simultaneously. Kinda like a prisoner trade.
    They are both entertaining. They both exaggerate and repeat untruths. They both like hurling accusations and insults.
    Decorum has been fading. It's turned into a shitshow. They're hard to take seriously, but they do make laws that we the people are forced to adhere to.

    Sanity is another lie. Let's promote unity by "impeaching" an ex-president. That'll work.
    Let's create massive additional unemployment in a pandemic what unemployment is already high. Brilliant!
    Let's make everything cost more. Nothing will bring the people together better than abject poverty.
    Let's bias our actions toward protecting the ultra-rich at the cost of "the little guy". I mean, "too big to fail", right?
    Oh, and let's not forget telling white people how bad they are for being white. Once they accept that, everyone will be free to get along. And we can finally move on to content of character. Must go Something like that.

    People love "crazy" when they perceive it to be "on their side" - but hate it when it's coming at them from the other side. "Sanity", if there ever was, is a thing of the past. We've progressed beyond that now. We've evolved. Yay.

    Everyone has an opinion, but the facts are facts.

    The republican spreads hate and fear.

    The democrat you mentioned does not.

    Disninformation is a distortion of the truth, which means it's a lie...

    Don't reason with a cult member, Zen. It's futile.

    AOC may be idealistic and unrealistic but she's not dangerous. Her far left views, while not getting fulfilled, tend to move public opinion toward the left, aka progress. Given time I hope she'll learn to negotiate better, since her career is bound to be filled with compromises.

    MTG is dangerous. Among those who stormed the Capitol were a lot of QAnon believers embracing the bullshit she's been posting the past few years. People that we're still dealing with! If they won't kick her out of Congress they need to at least take her off any committees, make her as ineffective as possible.

    With the proper makeup, she would look like that other ****, Marilyn Manson.

    'Sanity' is clearly a term you're completely unfamiliar with.

    And subjective, apparently.

    There are literally people who are absolutely sure that this one election was 100% legit while simultaneously convinced the 2016 one wasn't.
    And vice versa.
    Interesting.

    Sure is, they are not the same group tho. T—— thought BOTH 2016 and 2020 were not legit while a majority of Americans thought both elections were legit. The. “Simultaneous” group is mighty small.

    Sanity is only subjective if you are already sane and can afford sanity.

    So if you're poor you can't afford to be sane?

    Poverty is the very definition of insanity. Fundamentalism meets all the criteria for a mental disease, but they represent a huge percentage of the population and have way too much money to ever be declared insane.

    That is rude, untrue, and makes no sense.
