AIN’T EASY BEING GREENE: Here’s why Marjorie Taylor Greene thinks her job is “miserable”
Everyone has had a job they’ve hated but couldn’t quit for whatever their reasons were, but they’re usually financial ones. Not Marjorie Taylor Greene.
Not too many of us have had the (very rich and very white) privilege of leap-frogging over the many steps most people take to get to a high-profile gig that gives them the kind of global fame they then take for granted.
Rep. Marjorie Taylor “No Longer” Greene (R-GA via somebody’s shady backroom) is back on congressional committees and is the darling of the Nazi Republican Party, but now Miz Christian Forbearance is out there bitching about her cushy Congressional job, saying it makes her “miserable.”
Imagine bitching about earning $174,000 for doing nothing except rage-tweeting QAnon propaganda.
It’s a literal insult to injury when you consider “Marjorie Nazi Greene” was recruited straight from running her daddy’s business to serve in Congress without ever working in local government.
Sound like a familiar path to politics?
Oh, let’s talk about someone making life “miserable for others,” shall we?
Marjorie Taylor Greene: “Becoming a member of Congress has made my life miserable. I made a lot more money before I got here. I’ve lost money since I’ve gotten here. …It’s not a life that I think is like something that I enjoy because I don’t enjoy it.” pic.twitter.com/p3w23vF48h

Marjorie Taylor Greene chased a Parkland survivor while carrying a loaded gun in her purse.
Marjorie Taylor Greene was at the White House for a January 6th plotting meeting before she was even sworn into Congress and then asked for a pardon just a few days after the insurrection.
Marjorie Taylor Greene ran a contest on her website for people to go “hog hunting” with her where she compared Democrats to the hogs who’ll be shot at from a helicopter full of MAGAts.
I guess #MarjorieTaylorGreene’s lawyer hasn’t seen this video

This is what the QAnon Qrank said about how hard her unearned privileged life is:
“The nature of this job – it keeps members of congress and senators in Washington so much of the time, too much of the time to be honest with you, that we don’t get to go home and spend more time with our families, our friends, you know, all in our district, or maybe just be regular people because this job is so demanding, and it’s turned into practically year-round,” Greene said.
“And for those of us in the House of Representatives, we have to run for Congress every two years. So you’re practically campaigning nearly the entire time that you’re here serving as a representative. So that’s just a couple of examples that I can give you that I believe is a recipe for disaster, and that’s how people just fall into this social club. I would call it a social club here in Washington, DC.”
BOO EFFIN HOO, MAGA Mean Girl.
Stop attention whoring and quit if you’re so miserable.
You certainly won’t find any sympathy from Twitter.
