Republicans are either desperate to hold on to any semblance of Trump, or they have nothing else to spend their stimulus money on, but somehow Marjorie Taylor Greene—the GOP Georgia representative that Republicans secretly hate, too—raise $3.2 million in three months.

According to CNN, QGreene announced Wednesday that her reelection campaign raised all this money in a short period of time because conspiracy theorists love them some conspiracy theorists.

“I am humbled, overjoyed, and so excited to announce what happened over the past few months as I have been the most attacked freshman member of Congress in history,” said Greene in a statement. “I stood my ground and never wavered in my belief in America First policies and putting People Over Politicians! And I will NEVER back down! As a matter of fact, I’m just getting started.”

Meanwhile, everyone hates this woman and her crazy ass ramblings as this past February “the House voted to remove Greene from her committee assignments after reports of her comments surfaced showing her encouragement of political violence, suggestion that the Parkland, Florida, school shooting was a ‘false flag’ operation and conspiratorial claim that a space laser controlled by Jewish financiers started a California wildfire in 2018,” CNN reports.

Yes, you read this correctly. There is currently a U.S. congresswoman who believes that a space laser, yes, a fucking space laser, started wildfires.

1. Cool! The more money to her, less to others. Plus, it's more of an opportunity for criming.

2. Grifters gotta grift; it is what republicans have become

This party is so dirty and corrupt to the core.

[TreasonousBastard]

3. More evidence that Hamilton was right-- "the people" are assholes.

[Beaverhausen]

4. Personally, I'd be happy to stop giving her any attention at all

and that goes double for the former guy. Sick of reading about him too.

5. Not corporate donors but grassroots crazies. Wow.

[ProfessorGAC]

16. Yeah, Sure!

It would be easy to do damage control by backdoor funding folks, who then donate.
Sorry, but a person with zero influence isn't going to generate a million a month, even in the fascist party.
I simply don't believe this story.

6. It's almost like they say stupid shit like that so they can take money from stupid people.

9. I believe that is their exact fund raising model.

The crazy gets them publicity and attention, appearances in RW media, and bunches of donations.

I wouldn't be surprised if Matt Gaetz sees a windfall, as well.

7. Rep. Ocasio-Cortez raised $5 million for Texas in a weekend

But you keep doing what you're going, Marjorie. I'm sure someone somewhere is proud of you.

8. Humbled and overjoyed

at the number of idiots she can sponge off of.

[moondust]

10. So many lunatics,

so few rubber rooms.

[malaise]

11. Follow that money and watch her get into trouble n/t

[Scrivener7]

12. According to the article, it was her campaign that reported this number. Why do we believe it?

[Johonny]

13. I assume she will launder it through herself and family

[joetheman]

14. Most of the MAGAs want the money. Since they are unqualified to earn a decent living, politics is

their way to wealth. They know all they have to do is be like, support, and suck up to Trump.

15. SICK TO MY STOMACH here

It's just NOT fucking right that Americans support this piece of shit!

17. She doesn't care about committee assignments--this is why she ran for office.

Mission Accomplished, I guess.
