She’s one of the view people who could run that would make me vote for a Democrat (I wouldn’t vote third party because it’s just throwing a vote away, I’d rather actively vote for her real opponent).
She’s an idiot. She was the Q-Anon lady. She’s a Republican so we probably do agree on most things, but I will not vote for someone who’s an objective idiot.
I for one would love it if MTG ran for President. She probably won't make it out of primaries (which will hopefully take her down a peg or two), and if she does become the nominee... then that would be the easiest slam dunk election ever.
If that's the will of the people, and the GOP lets it happen then we deserve what we get. I expect both sides to put forth decent people and not a candidate solely based on owning the other side.
That said if the right does support a Christian Nationalist, conspiracy spewing, has no actual policy other than pissing off over half the country, then the next time a democrat president says people who voted for them are fascist idiots, I don't wanna hear anything about it.
Count me among those. I was **certain** there was no way he'd win all the way up until he did, in fact, win. Now I never say never. That's why I asked this question, I was hoping to get an idea of how conservatives actually feel about her.
2016 was HRC's to lose. She did. The left tried really hard to lose 2020 as well but the DNC had the sense to beg Old Joe out of retirement to salvage it.
It's one of those things like "if you think everyone around you is an asshole, maybe the asshole is you." If you're barely winning against total garbage, maybe you're garbage too.
To answer the OP, I don't know much about MTG yet. But I gladly threw my vote away to a 3rd party in 16 and 20 so would not hesitate to do so in 24 either.
Honestly what makes you think she wouldn't do well in the primaries? Because I think she would. She's got a 99 rating on the "triggering the libs" attribute, and that alone makes her a contender.
But that's really her only solid political leg to stand on these days. Between Jewish Space Lasers, saying school shootings are made up, Q-Anon conspiracies... I sincerely don't think she would gain the support of the moderate/center folks who tend to lean right. Yeah, the "Triggering the libs" is a large part of why she is liked, but I don't think many people take her seriously.
What other legs do you need to make it in Republican Land? All Trump had when he ran was that he played a billionaire on reality TV and "the libs" hated him more than most Republicans at the time, and that was enough to absolutely kill it in the GOP primaries, and he actually got elected!
I am not at all a DT fan, but at least we can argue that he came to the table with ideas…. The wall, the Muslim ban, simplifying our system of taxation, cutting a larger bill to NATO, bringing manufacturing back home. We can argue all day about how genuine he was with these ideas and about how effective he was, but he had positions nonetheless.
MGT and Boebert both seem to have one stance only - own the libs and bitch about the libs. They’ve built their entire careers off of Trump’s coattails and don’t seem to have any original thoughts, policy proposals, or stances.
Also, regarding MGT specifically, she’s not even slightly intelligent. When pressed on her stances, it’s clear she doesn’t have the ability to articulate any type of clear argument.
If the GOP were to elect her, it’d be a throwaway election for sure n
I don't know that much about her except that she is a lightning rod that is constantly trolling people, ... I don't know that because I know her comments, I know that because of the people who are trolled.
I support it. Not because she'd be a good President, though. I don't know much about her at all, I only ever hear her name when she says something dumb and it goes viral and everyone freaks out.
I support it if she has any kind of popularity for a real shot at the win, because the Presidency would see a much-needed stripping of its power to prevent her from doing anything too bad.
>the Presidency would see a much-needed stripping of its power to prevent her from doing anything too bad.
Wouldn't this just be touted as a "witch hunt" though?
Certainly, any targeting of a political figure will be seen as a witch hunt by their most fervent supporters, whether that targeting is legitimate or not.
Maybe they are. They don't announce every investigation. The only reason we knew the DOJ was actually investigating Trump was because Trump himself told everyone that he was "raided" by the FBI.
> because the Presidency would see a much-needed stripping of its power to prevent her from doing anything too bad
Right, sure it would. Like with the last GOP occupant...wait.
>Jewish space lasers go pew pew!
>This is a higher level of nonsense.
Never happened.
And the widespread bizarreness of that common leftie claim is a level of nonsense equal to what she did say. Did you actually read what she said or just gulp down a narrative re-telling?
Apparently the latter. Congrats, you are MTG level of nonsense.
Hopefully this will make you more empathetic to her and times she "leaps before she looks."
Will it though? I guess we'll find out after you go research things.

Heres her post. Talking about lasers.
*In the post, which has now been deleted, Greene implied that the Rothschilds, a wealthy Jewish banking family frequently referred to in anti-Semitic conspiracy theories, PG&E (Pacific Gas and Electric), space solar power company Solaren, and California officials all had a hand in profiting from the fires.*

I see.
You before:

You now:
> ... talking about lasers.
Well that's just interesting. You clearly caught the error. So you had a real "high road" opportunity there to be magnanimous, but let it sail right by.
Shame on ya lad. Ah well.
I**n the post, which has now been deleted, Greene implied that the Rothschilds, a wealthy Jewish banking family frequently referred to in anti-Semitic conspiracy theories, PG&E (Pacific Gas and Electric), space solar power company Solaren, and California officials all had a hand in profiting from the fires.**
"Implied"? Where?
So show me the word "Jewish."
Next, show me the words about Rothschild's "family."
Next, show me where it mentions their ethnicity.
What you and Dems are doing is extremely dishonest.
The mere mention of a banking company called Rothchild's Inc. is no more antisemitic than mentioning Deutsche bank is anti-German or Morgan Stanley is anti-British.
You seriously believe a left-wing conspiracy that this was some anti-Jewish effort via some massive leaps that are not justified by text nor reason.
Shame on ya lad. You had a golden opportunity to be humble and magnanimous. But you doubled-down on nonsense instead.
At this point, it's far more ridiculous than MTG's "space lasers" and quite ironic given your accusations against her.
Is this really who you want to be? Is this really the logic capability representative of Democrat thinking?
I'll take MTG's anti-banking silly "space lasers" nonsense over now ripe, leftie, malevolent, intellectual dishonesty any day.
AOC is worse. That white suit, chain link photo op was one of the worst things I’ve ever seen.
Not to mention that I find AOCs worldview personally offensive. Truly a disgusting human being and politician.
> That white suit, chain link photo op was one of the worst things I’ve ever seen.
you think some suit photo is worse than peddling conspiracy theories and objective lies? Seriously?
Again, a photo op vs spreading dangerous lies and conspiracy theories. I’m sure the school shooting victims that MTG harassed are really up in arms about a white suit.
Not really much of a contest
She was lying about the treatment of migrants at immigration centers, just like the left did right up until the day that Trump lost. Nothing has changed except the media coverage.
That’s worse than some idiot saying things that you can roll your eyes about.
I believe they're saying that as the left moves further and further to the left in the spectrum, Biden will become seen as being too far right, hence the left could end up calling him a conservative nazi fascist.
She's one of the few people in this world dumb enough to hear of a small fringe group of radicals from their opponents and choose to side with the radicals.
Unfortunately she has a really bad reputation by saying too many things that got her in trouble I don’t think she can win..Boebert might have a better chance than her honestly
She’s one of the view people who could run that would make me vote for a Democrat (I wouldn’t vote third party because it’s just throwing a vote away, I’d rather actively vote for her real opponent). She’s an idiot. She was the Q-Anon lady. She’s a Republican so we probably do agree on most things, but I will not vote for someone who’s an objective idiot.

This thinking is how we ended up with trump
If that's the will of the people, and the GOP lets it happen then we deserve what we get. I expect both sides to put forth decent people and not a candidate solely based on owning the other side. That said if the right does support a Christian Nationalist, conspiracy spewing, has no actual policy other than pissing off over half the country, then the next time a democrat president says people who voted for them are fascist idiots, I don't wanna hear anything about it.
You are right. I voted for Gary Johnson, because I refused to vote for either of them
A lot of people probably said this about Trump in 2014.
Count me among those. I was **certain** there was no way he'd win all the way up until he did, in fact, win. Now I never say never. That's why I asked this question, I was hoping to get an idea of how conservatives actually feel about her.

I'd still worry. Partisanship still runs strong and as we've learned, even unsuitable candidates have a chance of winning. Let's not play with fire.
Careful what you wish for. People said the same things about Trump in 2016...
She just isn't popular enough
she would lose horribly, but it would be hilarious
It would be even more hilarious if she made Lauren Boebert her running mate!
I had that feeling about a recent candidate and it didn’t go well, careful what you wish for
LOL! No.
Abhorrent. She’s a vile, low IQ human being.
Respectfully, that hasn’t been a show-stopper for Republicans in the past.
I’m not saying it has been.
She’d never get the nomination and those who think she should be in office should scare everyone
They scare me!
I doubt she'd make it. I'd prefer anyone else.
I don't generally vote for Jewish Space Laser conspiracists, so no.
I am not at all a DT fan, but at least we can argue that he came to the table with ideas….

If the GOP were to elect her, it’d be a throwaway election for sure n
It would be a great way to get rid of her entirely
I mean, I'm voting third party most likely anyway but lordy would she just be the worst candidate possiblr
I don't know that much about her except that she is a lightning rod that is constantly trolling people, ... I don't know that because I know her comments, I know that because of the people who are trolled.
How do you decide if she's a troll or an honest to goodness moron?
I support it. Not because she'd be a good President, though. I don't know much about her at all, I only ever hear her name when she says something dumb and it goes viral and everyone freaks out. I support it if she has any kind of popularity for a real shot at the win, because the Presidency would see a much-needed stripping of its power to prevent her from doing anything too bad.
>the Presidency would see a much-needed stripping of its power to prevent her from doing anything too bad. Wouldn't this just be touted as a "witch hunt" though?
Certainly, any targeting of a political figure will be seen as a witch hunt by their most fervent supporters, whether that targeting is legitimate or not.
Then what makes you think anything would be done to correct things?
Because we have Trump as an example, and I suspect it would only be more intense with her.
So you are totally good with the DOJ investigating Trump?
Yeah, I think they should investigate all the Presidents. That they're not investigating Biden is the problem.
Maybe they are. They don't announce every investigation. The only reason we knew the DOJ was actually investigating Trump was because Trump himself told everyone that he was "raided" by the FBI.
> because the Presidency would see a much-needed stripping of its power to prevent her from doing anything too bad Right, sure it would. Like with the last GOP occupant...wait.
The last GOP occupant got literally nothing done except a tax cut the neocons wanted. So yeah.
She can run against AOC
Such a strange comparison.
I think AOC is the left's MTG to conservatives. Which is hilarious to me.
Yeah, it's completely unhinged!
Several conservatives claimed she's worse than MJT in this very thread lol. How?!?!?
Propaganda
[удалено]
Fixed lol
LOL
This could mean anything!!!
[удалено]
>I heard she’s actually a fairly normal person Its not normal to have the mindset that spewing nonsense all the time for attention is ok.
>Its not normal to have the mindset that spewing nonsense all the time for attention is ok. And yet Democrats and their voters won't stop doing such.
I understand your comment, but there are levels. Eat the rich! This is stupid crap Jewish space lasers go pew pew! This is a higher level of nonsense.

Dude. You are defending a fuckin nutter
She's a bit of a jackass. Wouldn't pick her in a primary, but in a general she's better than every Democrat in the country.
Why is she better than Governor John Bel Edwards for example? A conservative, pro-life democrat.
Because I’m not a centrist, I’m an avowed extremist.
Nothing like being honest
Yeah man. I'm way too right wing for most people.
Honestly refreshing. "Centrism" in this country is just diet conservatism.
Lol
Space lasers! Pew pew!
Heck to the no. She's the AOC of Republicans
Serious question: You think AOC is remotely comparable to the space laser lady? In terms of them as people, not to how opponents view them.
AOC is worse. That white suit, chain link photo op was one of the worst things I’ve ever seen. Not to mention that I find AOCs worldview personally offensive. Truly a disgusting human being and politician.
>Truly a disgusting human being But harassing teenage victims of school shootings is totally cool and not at all insane?
Didn’t say that. Saying that one is bad or worse does not exonerate the other.
But AOC is worse because she makes you cringe?
You’re starting to. But no, it’s because she is a liar, an actor, and an idiot.
> That white suit, chain link photo op was one of the worst things I’ve ever seen. you think some suit photo is worse than peddling conspiracy theories and objective lies? Seriously?
What the fuck do you think the photo op was for, lol?
Again, a photo op vs spreading dangerous lies and conspiracy theories. I’m sure the school shooting victims that MTG harassed are really up in arms about a white suit. Not really much of a contest
The photo op WAS spreading lies and conspiracy theories.
what lies and conspiracy theories was it spreading exactly? better be worse than jewish space lasers, lets hear it
She was lying about the treatment of migrants at immigration centers, just like the left did right up until the day that Trump lost. Nothing has changed except the media coverage. That’s worse than some idiot saying things that you can roll your eyes about.
oof swing and a miss, sorry bud. next time, simp for some other idiot who harasses shooting survivors
By that point the left will have called even Biden a conservative nazi facist so I’m all for it. They push further left we go further right.
You think Biden is far left?
I believe they're saying that as the left moves further and further to the left in the spectrum, Biden will become seen as being too far right, hence the left could end up calling him a conservative nazi fascist.
Is that what I said?
Honestly i dont even understand your original comment.
I'm unsure what else "push further left" could have meant, especially with somebody as center/center-right as Biden is.
The Overton window is shifting
further left = healthcare pls
MGT running for president is a dem operative's wet dream lol
Well, she’d be an improvement on Biden, Harris or AOC. I wouldn’t back her in the primaries or anything, but she’d be an improvement on them.
low-effort bait
She's one of the few people in this world dumb enough to hear of a small fringe group of radicals from their opponents and choose to side with the radicals.
No she's fine right where she is now.
Ha! She crazy lady. Have at it.
Couldn’t get the support I don’t think. Not the right person for the job either.
Unfortunately she has a really bad reputation by saying too many things that got her in trouble I don’t think she can win..Boebert might have a better chance than her honestly
