Donald Trump has publicly called it quits with one of his most stalwart MAGA-world supporters, calling Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene “‘Wacky’ Marjorie” and saying he would endorse a challenger against her in next year’s midterms “if the right person runs.”

The dismissal of Greene — once the epitome of “Make America Great Again,” sporting the signature red cap for President Joe Biden’s 2024 State of the Union address and acting as a go-between for Trump and other Capitol Hill Republicans — appeared to be the final break in a dispute simmering for months, as Greene has seemingly moderated her political profile.

The three-term U.S. House member has increasingly dissented from Republican leaders, attacking them during the just-ended federal government shutdown and saying they need a plan to help people who are losing subsidies to afford health insurance policies.

      Hope in vain it’ll never happen, these shit stains always vote in lockstep.

      Republicans moving left will NOT save us.

      Democrats need to move left and grab the 100 million voters sitting out because they believe neither side is doing anything for them.

        I didn’t say anything about moving left. I just want to see the pro pedo factions fighting with the anti pedo factions.

    Is it normal that a president screams to the world that someone is “NOT MY FRIEND NO MORE, SO THERE!!” ?

      Yeah, in US it’s an everyday happening. Not in countries that doesn’t have a pedophile as president, but in US it is completely normal.

    They’ll kiss and make up, like he did with Elon, who publicly stated that Trump was in the Epstein files (I think he was guessing but it’s a good guess, though maybe he did know — I mean more so than we all knew).

      The difference is Musk and most Confederates have zero values, whereas Greene and Boebert seem to be genuinely against pedophilia.

      Resistance comes from oppression, and right wing communities are not friendly spaces for women. MTG has played “one of the good ones,” but Trump still won’t let her run for Senate. God knows what other harassment her peers impose (especially because she has been batshit in her role). She graduated from small-town nepo-baby to the billionaire crowd, and it’s probably been a shock how little those people care about her opinions.

      The bootlickers may see inequality, but they attribute it to fickle whims of those in power rather than any kind of system. If you believe that success or failure comes from the patronage of the powerful, then ingratiating yourself to them is a rational strategy for getting ahead.
