Marge Greene Says Trump is "Just Sick" Over the Fate of Insurrectionists

The GOP Congressional Crackpot Freedom Caucus suffered some minor damage in the recent election:  Rep. Madison Cawthorn lost his primary and will no longer be in the club come January - and Sarah Palin, a natural fit for the group, couldn't manage to parlay her reality show fame into a congressional seat.  But other than those two losses, the rest of the gang will be back and sharing their wit and wisdom with America when the new Congress convenes in January.

But Marge Greene of Georgia, a member of very good standing in the Crackpot Freedom Caucus, isn't waiting.  Greene, who seems to believe that she has the inside track on being Trump's next running mate, has made news a couple of times since her reelection to Congress.  First, she appeared to be doing Trump's bidding by endorsing Kevin McCarthy's move to become the next Speaker of the House.  Greene stated that she would be voting for McCarthy to fill that powerful post.

Of course, with the GOP just holding a bare majority in the next House, McCarthy can only afford to lose a few votes of his own party members if he expects to win the Speaker's gavel, and Greene doesn't represent all of the bitter right-wingers who want to be heard on the matter.  Her close friend, Rep. Matt Gaetz of Florida, is, in fact, not on board with McCarthy and has announced that Kevin does not have the votes to become the next speaker.  

It's going to be an interesting few weeks as McCarthy tries to buy his way into the speakership with promises of plum committee assignments, congressional hearings with political agendas, and legislation to benefit specific members of his party.

 

Marge was more directly supportive of Trump and his upcoming campaign to regain the presidency this past weekend when she made an appearance on Steve Bannon's podcast.  While on that program she addressed complaints that Trump had abandoned the insurrectionists who stormed the Capitol on January 6th.  She said Trump and his wife were "just sick" over the jailing of the people who had attacked the Capitol.  She said that Trump had not pardoned them at the time because they had not been charged and he did not know specifically who they were.  

(Perhaps he should have asked the wife of a certain Supreme Court justice for a list.)

And Marge declared to Bannnon and his listeners that Trump would pardon those who had been arrested and charged in the matter once he returns to the presidency after the next election.

Marge, Trump isn't going to be elected to another term in the White House, and he has pardoned the last criminals that he will ever pardon. America has moved on, and hell, even the Republican Party has moved on. Ron DeSantis is the new Trump.  Pay attention!
