Marjorie Taylor Greene begs voters to elect "horrible, sh**ty" Republicans
“If you care about President Trump getting in the White House, you have to get all your friends and family, everyone you know to get out and vote for him. But you may also have to swallow down voting for that RINO [Republican in name only], horrible, shitty Republican you hate … just so we can control the House,”
If I’m understanding correctly, by horrible shitty Republicans she means Republicans who aren’t horrible or shitty enough.
This. Though they will likely come for any progressive denominations, Catholics, LDS, and JW very quickly.
Also, I hope we never get to find out just how cynical they are about the phrase “Judeo-Christian values”, lol.
Unfortunately, I think this bit of trash comes from a district that is way too red, so she’s all too safe. No matter how stupid, how venal, how incompetent - all these things are considered features by the redhatters.
They seriously don’t think expertise matters in government. They only seem to apply this ridiculous standard very narrowly - at government. I doubt they’d let some “outsider” who was completely inept at their job drill their teeth, all just to “own the libs”.
Sadly, some of the bothsiderists, “independents” and Enlightened Centrists promote the same nonsense - you’ll hear them talk about “term limits” as a clear signifier of this terrible thinking. No one talks about “term limits” for their dentist, their plumber, their mechanic, their doctor, tax preparer, etc…experience and qualifications clearly matter in these instances, but somehow…don’t…within government.
What’s funny about the whole RINO thing is that St. Ronald Reagan himself said that the Eleventh Commandment was that no GOP should trash talk another. Ronnie said he wanted a ‘big tent’ where all Conservative voices could be heard.
Blame Nixon.
His 1968 campaign was a classic example of ‘Something For Everybody.’ He told the hippies that he was going to end the Vietnam War and appealed to the Right with attack dog Spiro Agnew. He also knew that a lot of Southern folks were unhappy with the Civil Rights Act, so he gave them a ton of dog whistles.
Before Nixon, the GOP had a sizeable Liberal Wing. By 1980 those guys were gone.

The acronym RINOs refers to Republicans who do not adhere to someone’s preferred right-wing ideology.
Wouldn’t that be RWDNATSPRWIs?
