She tops herself the way Lady Gaga used to, except Marjorie Taylor Greene's not just changing costumes. Nope, the wackiest representative in Washington keeps coming up with ever pointier objects to stick in liberal eyes. Now she's comparing the rules demanding that congress members wear masks in the House chamber to Jews being murdered in the Holocaust.
MTG isn't even trying to make sense. One twitter user asks, "Wait the Jewish Space Laser Lady is *not* a Holocaust denier?"
It's attention-seeking behavior. She's like a middle school kid testing her limits, except the only equivalent to a vice principal here is Kevin McCarthy, and McCarthy is reporting to a one-man school board currently living at Mar-a-Lago. The Mar-a-Lago muttonhead thinks she's aces.
Greene serves a purpose for that party of the right: She does draw attention away from machinations of the Trumpublican party, which is probably very helpful.
It's hard to understand why MTG is such a cuckoo. Prior to running for Georgia's 14th district, she was, in fact, a businesswoman. Aside from her full-bore infatuation with CrossFit (she competed in it as a sport), she seems normal, if blazingly right wing. She and her husband owned and ran a construction company. She paid for her own campaign.
Ultimately, she's desperate for attention and clout, according to Politico. The article quotes her on her shift into public, political life: It was like “ripping the duct tape off my mouth.” No kidding.
At least she hasn't bitten off the head of a bat -- yet.
