Marjorie Taylor Greene blasts Democrats for comparing Republicans to Nazis, then compares Democrats

There’s an old internet adage that says the longer a political discussion continues, the greater the probability that someone will compare something to Nazi Germany. In a speech on Thursday night, however, Rep Marjorie Taylor Greene didn’t take long to both denounce such comparisons – and then make one herself.

At a stop in Dalton, Georgia on her and Rep Matt Gaetz’s “America First” speaking tour, the combative congresswoman complained that Democrats “spent four years… calling Republicans Nazis.”

“That’s a mean, nasty, dirty word,” she said. “And what did they call President Trump? Hitler, that’s right! That’s one of the most evil men to ever walk this earth, but that’s what they called our president.”

Might explain why she's doubling down on her lunacy.

Obnoxious, enormously stupid and vulgar beyond words. Plus they both look like they missed a few rounds of evolutionary advancement.

I just wish they would both go away for ever, and take their cults with them.
