Is MTG the new Nee-Nee?
What did all that get her? Apparently – according to a recent campaign report I saw – Ellmers is currently working in a Harnett County drug store.
Georgia’s Marjorie Taylor Greene (MTG) came to Washington as a darling of the MAGA movement. Those folks, as you know, are polar opposite to the go-along, get-along, you-spank-me-I’ll-spank-you style of McCarthy and his pals.
MTG was regularly standing firm with Matt Gaetz and the rest of the Freedom Caucus providing headaches for Pelosi AND her own party’s leadership. Now, something is different.
Greene went out of her way to take to the airwaves recently and attack her MAGA friends in the House for holding out on McCarthy. As the pictures above suggest, there is a bit of a flirty, goo-goo look in her eyes when she’s in close range to McCarthy. Could she be falling for that same mystical, hypnotic gaze that wowed mean little Nee-Nee years ago?
Hopefully, someone will be able to break her out of that spell and get her back to business. If not, she might not be far off from following Nee-Nee into the drug store business.
Her falling out with Lauren Boebert was a bit of a red flag to me. But if she drifts too far into McCarthy’s orbit, we’ll see if the conservatives in Rome and the north Georgia mountains who like the firebrand that she WAS, still go for her. If she gets a primary, we’ll see how far McCarthy’s “concession” to not get involved in gop primaries goes.
