Marjorie Taylor Greene says she was ‘naive’ for believing Trump is man of the people

“I realized that I’m part of this toxic culture. I really started looking at my faith. I wanted to be more like Christ.”

Press (x) for doubt

This from the jewish space laser lady ?

People don't change, some adapt.

I like your Christ, I do not like your Christians. Your Christians are so unlike your Christ - Gandhi

So she's either lying or willfully ignorant. I'm leaning towards the former. Either way, not someone worth listening to. Go away, Marge.

[–] MiddleAgesModem@lemmy.world 5 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

I still don't see the point of her lying. Maybe she's pissed she didn't get a job in the Trump admin. In any event, Democrats won't elect her for anything, she's leaving politics.

You’d have to be naive to believe her.

[–] SlurpingPus@lemmy.world 3 points 2 hours ago

Reminder that the US elected Trump two times.

[–] ArgumentativeMonotheist@lemmy.world 29 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

And some Americans will believe her. 🤣

[–] MiddleAgesModem@lemmy.world 3 points 17 hours ago (2 children)

I don't necessarily believe her, just can't figure out her angle.

Not to save her political career, that's over. Could be the Epstein stuff is actually shocking to her because she's an idiot.

[–] jaybone@lemmy.zip 5 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

Could be many things. One thought is, she’s just all pissy she got played and she’s trying to stir the pot a bit on her way out before she descends into nowhere.

Or maybe she thinks she start a grift like Charlie Kirk giving speeches or some shit (hence the Christ thing.)

You know. I hope she’s earnest about this wake up call and becomes a MAGA “reformist.” Bad people in toxic systems can do good things in life, and her following isn’t trivial.

…But proof is in the puddin. Especially with her history.

I will also say that, if she’s betting on a Trump collapse, that is not a great bet and she knows it. If she simply wants power, it doesn’t seem like she’d be leaving Congress while saying these things.

[–] tburkhol@lemmy.world 12 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

If she were in it for the power, she'd use her new role as 'maverick' in the GOP's razor-thin margin to play kingmaker.

If she were in if for the money, she'd retire as soon as her pension vests.

If she were Truly Awakened, she'd resign as soon as she learned she's been tainted by a toxic system.

[–] brucethemoose@lemmy.world 11 points 21 hours ago* (last edited 21 hours ago) (1 children)

She did the later:

https://apnews.com/article/marjorie-taylor-green-congress-resigns-trump-maga-5f42d4893343babc8e87da1491a0de2b

She said her last day would be Jan. 5, 2026.

It’s not instant. But for a congresswoman, that’s an abrupt resignation.

[–] tburkhol@lemmy.world 14 points 20 hours ago (3 children)

Jan 5 2026 is the day her pension vests: 5 years of service.

[–] brucethemoose@lemmy.world 9 points 20 hours ago* (last edited 20 hours ago)

Didn’t realize that.

But still. Not waiting 1 month and forfeiting a government pension, just to make a point? That seems stupid to me. And it’s not like she’s making a ridiculous amount of money from the pension.

To be clear, I don’t want to veer into defending her. I’m sure she makes tons of money from social media, which is kind of sickening.

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 3 points 15 hours ago

i dont think she really cares about that, she gained millions during her time in the house.

The mainstream media continue to inexplicably rehabilitate her image and as you can see by the comments here it’s literally working

[–] FauxPseudo@lemmy.world 4 points 17 hours ago

They are a person who saw that they were the problem. They get credit for that. They might still be a miserable person but we should encourage all Trump supporters to admit their mistake. Some of them might need some knife marks on their forehead but we will get to that later.

[–] MiddleAgesModem@lemmy.world 3 points 17 hours ago

"The mainstream media" bullshit is for Trumpers.

She's getting a small level of coverage because of her sharp departure from previous statements.

She might be full of shit but the media simply reporting what she says is not unethical in any way.

[–] lemmy_outta_here@lemmy.world 10 points 7 hours ago

Some say she was naive, others say she is a stupid evil cunt.

[–] SarahFromOz@lemmy.world 9 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

THIS Marjorie Taylor Greene?

Just checking.

He is the Zangief of tantric sex!

Just ask Marjorie

[–] TexasDrunk@lemmy.world 3 points 17 hours ago

I'm so out of touch that I'm not sure if that's a Zangief costume or if a guy that calls himself a Tantric Warrior just dresses that way.

[–] treesquid@lemmy.world 9 points 4 hours ago

And anyone who thinks she's reformed now is even more naive.

[–] Mediocre_Bard@lemmy.world 8 points 8 hours ago

We still need to burn her at the stake. You can't just call an oopsies on facilitating hate and expect to be forgiven.

mtg is one of them that believes in the conspiracies so to speak, when trump dint deliver she became incensed. plus what really tipped her over was trumps lack of endorsment for mtgs run at the senate.

Not "naive" but, evil and apathetic to others until she is on the other side. No matter what she says she should never be trusted or forgiven.

That being said it's been oddly quiet from her friend boebert.

[–] FauxPseudo@lemmy.world 5 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

This may be appropriate in two ways. Trump is the leopard in this case but in the future we may look back and see her eating his face. He may have created the leopard that will do him in.

Margie had a chance to ride the criminal train to the top but her cohorts didn't want her on board and now the fury of her hell is upon us.

[–] MehBlah@lemmy.world 4 points 1 hour ago

Please go away trailer trash barbie.

[–] ohlaph@lemmy.world 4 points 4 hours ago

I mean, if she's that dumb, maybe she shouldn't be in politics any more.

[–] biotin7@sopuli.xyz 4 points 5 hours ago

Nope, she's trying to do damage-control

As an apology it's very horse.

[–] Fedizen@lemmy.world 3 points 5 hours ago

She is the biggest, stinkiest weasel. The sooner I stop hearing about her pathetic ass the better. As soon as she got the same level of pressure as the most spineless democrats she folded like an oragami turd.

[–] Endymion_Mallorn@kbin.melroy.org 3 points 21 hours ago (4 children)

I wonder if she'll change for real, or if this is just another grift.

[–] ikidd@lemmy.world 6 points 18 hours ago

Narrator: It was a grift.

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 4 points 15 hours ago

apparently she is pissed because her senate run was derailed before she had a chance, because trump(likely from his advisor told him not) did not support senate goals.

[–] Imgonnatrythis@sh.itjust.works 3 points 19 hours ago

Does it matter? She has proven she lacks the intellect to lead effectively. At best she pulls some stray maga into some other realm of deep dark stupidity. You can tie a cape on a frog, but it doesn't make it a superhero.
