Pass.
Don’t be so quick to dismiss, are you aware of the jewish space lasers problem?
Yeah, that tracks with her recent walking back of her Qanon shit posting.
I am also unsurprised that The View has helped her along with this effort. 😒
She is fairly stupid so that part is real magat.
If a new “real maga” comes out of the current maga and allows the movement to reset its image of economic failure and child sexual abuse I’m gonna be fucking pissed.
Just another vile demagogue. And people will be dumb enough to vote for her.
NO NO NO!
she’s a great candidate! let’s boost her so that she beats all the other Rs so that the Ds win!
oh, we tried that? and what happened? oh, wow. maybe we shouldn’t do that this time.
I’d like to laugh, but I did that with Trump and he got elected twice. Never know who fools will elect to lead.
Trailer Grease has none of the pull the orange turd has, though. Most of MAGA considers her nuttier than squirrel shit and would NOT vote for her.
How do they know? Trying to understand this woman is worse than trying to understand lassie, when she runs to tell people that Timmy fell down the well. Shes the human equivalent of smashing your face into the keyboard and crossing your fingers you get a coherent sentence out of it.
MAGA voters seem pretty unlikely to vote for women.
I mean it’s a trippple doom for her. She’s a woman, she’s half way shedding maga siding with dem’s on the epstein files, and on protecting healthcare, and she has a history of being outright crazy in multiple directions.
In short, I don’t think her recent forays into sanity are going to erase the stain the R party has on it now, nor erase her claims of weather controlling machines and space lasers to earn any support from the left.
Then to court maga… obviously they’d need to be less sexist, and she’d need to seem more… on trumps side.
I think AOC’s comment is probably right, she got snubbed for senate seat by trump… and now she’s pissed and wanting to break that glass ceiling.
Newsom/Greene 2028, lmao (please let this be a joke!)
DNC: “THATS A FUCKING BRILLIANT IDEA”
if this turns out to be true, I will hate you.
in the mean time, this got a chuckle.
If there’s any organizations can that we can count on to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory it’s the DNC
She is crazy enough, however, to make a big stink if Trump doesn’t step aside and let her have a crack at the Presidency.
I don’t think her recent forays into sanity
Her insanity and bigotry syncing up with some key issues isn’t “sanity”. It’s random chance.
I can give that on Isreal, she takes anti-semitism without the caveat of “except the ones that are in power commiting a genocide”. The release the epstein files, and protect healthcare, is either she’s actually concerned about helping people or punishing bad guys… or she’s just pissed off with something in her party and is playing a contrarian to get something she wants (which yeah, I’d lean more towards the second, but general bigotry doesn’t quite explain those 2).
Sadly, I think the only way we get a female president is if all candidates are female. AOC vs. MTG would be a good history maker.
Disagree. For one, it’d be an underwhelming point as a historic marker if it’s the only option. And two, we haven’t gotten a female president yet cuz the women we keep running are shit candidates. Sexism is absolutely a factor, but I don’t think it compares to the absolute fuckton of baggage (actual or perceived - doesn’t matter) that comes with Hillary, or Harris’s last minute embrace of Israel’s genocide.
We haven’t actually tried running a woman who’s also a decent human being. AOC would wipe the floor with her opponent’s face, regardless of that opponent’s gender.
Eh, it doesn’t have to be the most stupendous, amazing victory for women to be important and good. Two female candidates would still be a huge deal, assuming proper primaries were conducted. That said, I would be astounded if the Republican nominee is a woman any time soon.
Yeah, fair enough.
And who fuckin knows on the Republican nominee… I’m sure if MTG says enough slurs, or stomps on enough puppies, or shoots enough kindergartens, etc, on live TV the republican voter base could be persuaded to overlook the fact that she’s a woman. She’s already got behaving like a fucking dumbass down to a science, and the R’s love that shit, so… as Republican standards go for presidential material go, she checks a lot of the boxes.
I think you’re underestimating the potential power of “vote for a woman to own the libs and show them we’re not sexist. They’re stupid!”
They’d be faster to transvestigate her first
The one flaw in an otherwise brilliant plan.
I hope so. MAGA Republicans aren’t going to vote for a woman for president. I have a feeling it would be a humiliating experience for her.
MTG vs. AOC.
I’d tune in to watch that.
You know how on the TV there’s this type of a character that’s like a female head of a crime family that has to be smarter and stronger than the men and everyone is scared of her and respects her? MAGA would vote for a candidate like that. They don’t like womanly women that are educated and attractive. A strong, christian motherly figure? That’s a different story.
MAGA Republicans are so stupid they will believe MTG is not a real women and still vote for her. All you need is a bit of propaganda on Fox.
Good luck!
I mean, she is a better representation of what republicans and MAGA actually say they are. When you really dig in to what they believe they would never vote for Trump if they weren’t indoctrinated into a cult that he created. He’s literally against everything they stand for when you go past the surface but they are so blinded by owning the libs that they don’t see it anymore. Remember before the election last year and every republican, including voters, said that Trump was poison and that they would never support him again? They know this deep down even if they won’t admit it. They just either don’t care, want something out of it, or are genuinely blind to him fucking everyone over. MTG used to be one of the hardcore believers and I genuinely think was brainwashed and is slowly starting to realize it.
But to be clear, I still think she is a garbage human. I just believe that deep down this is the candidate they’d actually want if they weren’t so deep in the propaganda from their Dear Leader. She would actually do republican things and not just use it as a guise to become a dictator.
you mean that?
I would love MTG to be the Republican nominee. That would guarantee AOC in a head to head match up.
You over estimate Americans. People said this shit about the orange goblin. This concept of let their dumbest most pathetic candidate rise to the top so we can crush them no longer works.
I’m betting on sexism. I think that’s a safe bet right now
I literally and unironically laughed out loud the first time I heard that Donald Trump was running for president. I didn’t think it could possibly be genuine, but here we are.
Republican education cuts working their magic
She’ll 100% run…
The question is if it’s just a grift and she plans to drop and endorse early, or if she’ll actually try to win
That seemed to have been Trump’s original plan and now here we are.
Because his favorite wedding guest controlled the opposing party, so she thought the best use of her time was hyping trump up since he’d be an “easy” candidate for her to beat.
At least for this cycle, we don’t have a DNC corrupt and/or crazy enough to try and campaign for the craziest republican

I wouldn’t count on that, they seem determined to not learn anything.
they
The only time “they” makes sense when referencing the DNC is the ~400 voting members whose sole duty is to elect a chair if there’s no Dem president to nominate one…
And “they” 100% learned their lesson by not picking a neoliberal chair.
Now those ~400 people won’t have anything to do with the DNC till the next one, about 3 years and 3 months from now.
Like, I 100% get the distrust, and if you just a distrustful person ask yourself this:
Why did billionaire owned media stop telling people the DNC is the only shot and everyone has to just accept the lesser evil?
If billionaires aren’t carrying water for the DNC, the DNC likely isn’t carrying water for billionaires.
All I ask is you vote in Dem primaries, especially if you consider yourself left of the party.
There is no obligation after the Dem primary, and the worst that could possibly happen is you make Dems slightly more left, and still vote for Mickey Mouse or Batman in the general.
We just can’t let neoliberals take the party back or this has all been for nothing.
The only way she gets to run is if Trump dies in office before then.
Fellow people of Lemmy, the first women President of America. I do hope this comment ages like milk.
