You name for me a time when there wasn’t a Republican being portrayed as an obnoxious blowhard by the media in this country. I started paying attention to politics in about 1979, and I know Nixon was pilloried for doing exactly what every president since at least Abraham Lincoln did in office, so you’ll have to go back farther than Nixon.

And if MTG was articulately speaking to substance and being painted as a blowhard, we’d be in total alignment.

You seem to take the track of “well the media is going to attack Republicans anyway, so might as well have some retards peddling bullshite and embarrassing everyone” which is really strange to me.

Do you understand the function of a lightning rod? If half of the media is hanging on MTG’s every word like HHTM is, then other republicans might have a chance to accomplish something, right?

You sit here while she’s actually doing it. If it’s so easy why aren’t you in Congress scamming?

Correct me if I’m wrong, but I don’t think the word “easy” has appeared in any of my posts ITT.

Are you trying to act like she’s some brave warrior for saying stupid shite on cable news while also being one of the least productive members of congress (as defined by how many pieces of successful legislation they have sponsored, committee appointments that serve their district, etc)?


If so, I mean yea you got me. No one has approached me and said, “Hey, come pander to the dumbest segment of the Republican electorate and make them clap like seals despite doing nothing at all to advance their cause while collecting a six figure salary.” So in that sense I’m jealous of her. She has one of the easiest and cushiest jobs in the United States.

What is the virtue in selling something to people that are already sold, when the message is a detriment to winning elections?

Put another way: What is the possible benefit in having zero credibility amongst the people who are actually able to be persuaded into voting for the MAGA agenda?

Nope, that was your word too. I’m saying if she is out there being an idiot and drawing fire from the media, every one of them salivating at the thought of being the one who brings her down, it can only help the rest of the republicans who are targeted daily. If you can’t fathom this, maybe you shouldn’t be throwing shade at people like MTG.

I grasp fully what you are saying. I disagree entirely.

It doesn’t give anyone else cover. It allows everyone else to be painted with her bullshite, or be forced to address her stupidity every time they speak.


All she has to do is not be an attention whore. I have no issues with her voting record. How about we *gasp* engage the left and media substantively on the issues without devolving into total nonsense constantly?

Weird suggestion, I know. Aiming a campaign at the average American hasn’t been the goal for a long time, and everyone is worse off for it.

I don’t do mainstream media, so maybe you are more in tune with this aspect. I can’t recall any time I’ve seen another Republican saddled with her BS. Have you?

So it's MTG that is forcing you to support feeble Joe Biden, woke politics, trannies, a world on fire and tens of millions of foreigners eating up our kid's birthright?

Makes sense.

Yep!

Which is a huge part of my point. Republicans don’t have latitude to be total fricking loons that just spew bullshite for attention.
