Well, here we are again, staring down the barrel of yet another election cycle. And if the last few years have taught us anything, it’s that truly bizarre things can happen in American politics. So why not toss yet another wild card into the mix and nominate Marjorie Taylor Greene as vice president in 2024? Laugh all you want, but is it really any more absurd than a reality TV host becoming president? MTG certainly has that combustible mix of name recognition and controversy. And she’d definitely shake up the stale political scene. So get ready to embrace the chaos, folks! We’re in for a bumpy, outrageous ride if Marjorie ends up just a heartbeat away from the presidency.
Marjorie Taylor Greene’s Controversial Past
Marjorie Taylor Greene burst onto the political scene in 2020, winning her Congressional seat in Georgia’s 14th district. But MTG, as she’s known to fans, came with some baggage. Before becoming a legislator, Greene promoted some, shall we say, unorthodox beliefs.
Like her claim that 9/11 was an inside job. And that the Parkland school shooting was staged. Oh, and something about Rothschild space lasers starting wildfires. While these theories are creative, to put it politely, most rational humans recognize them as bonkers conspiracies not grounded in reality. But that didn’t stop Greene from pushing them on social media for years.
After her election win, Greene’s greatest hits started making the rounds again. This time, people actually paid attention. Her fellow Congress members were not amused. Facing backlash, Greene walked back her conspiracy claims, admitting “there is no excuse” for some of the things she said.
Still, that hasn’t hurt her standing with supporters. Greene fundraised off the controversy, pulling in over $3 million. Proof that as strange as her ideas are, they resonate with a certain subset. While Greene may have apologized for her past statements, her continued popularity shows that for some, the truth is irrelevant. All that matters is sticking it to the “elites,” even if it means promoting harmful lies.
Call us alarmists, but the thought of someone with Greene’s judgment a heartbeat away from the presidency should concern any reasonable citizen. Of course, after the last four years, what even is “reasonable” anymore? In this bizarro political era, stranger things have already happened. Marjorie Taylor Greene for VP in 2024? Sadly, we can’t rule it out.
Greene’s Political Positions and Trump Loyalty
Marjorie Taylor Greene isn’t afraid to speak her mind, even if what’s on her mind is totally bonkers. This Georgia congresswoman has promoted QAnon conspiracy theories, harassed teen school shooting survivors, and claimed forest fires were started by Jewish space lasers.
Despite her tenuous grasp of reality, Greene has one thing going for her in the eyes of MAGA nation: she’s a Trump loyalist through and through.
During Trump’s lame duck session, Greene flew down to Mar-a-Lago for a “great” meeting with the former guy. Rumor has it she groveled at his feet and begged his forgiveness after voting to certify Biden’s win. Trump, never one to miss an opportunity to be flattered, took her back into the fold. Now Greene’s counting on that relationship to launch her into the national spotlight.
A Greene vice presidency is the stuff of Stephen King novels. This woman makes Sarah Palin seem like a Rhodes scholar. Her solution to border security is to literally shoot immigrants. Her stance on education is to eliminate public schools. And her legislative accomplishments so far include delaying votes by forcing colleagues to sit through videos promoting QAnon propaganda.
Still, in today’s Republican party, all that really matters is pledging allegiance to Trump. And on that front, Greene is happy to lead the charge. She’s introduced articles of impeachment against Biden and harasses fellow members of Congress for acknowledging Trump lost the election.
With her talent for trolling libs and making headlines, Greene may be gunning to replace Pence on a hypothetical 2024 Trump ticket. After the Capitol riot, impeachment round two, and four years of utter chaos, putting Greene a heartbeat from the presidency would be a fitting finale to the Trump era’s assault on democracy. Let’s hope the voting public isn’t crazy enough to make that nightmare a reality.
The Potential Benefits of Having MTG as VP
She’d Make Politics Exciting Again
Let’s face it, politics these days is about as exciting as watching paint dry. Marjorie Taylor Greene would shake things up in Washington and keep us on the edge of our seats. You just never know what she might say or do next! She’s a loose cannon, that MTG, and her antics are sure to provide nonstop entertainment and tabloid fodder. If you thought the Trump presidency was a thrill a minute, just imagine what hijinks she could get up to as VP. Politics would never be boring again.
She Appeals to the MAGA Base
Marjorie Taylor Greene is a staunch Trump supporter and champion of MAGA values. Choosing her as VP would surely rally the Republican base and reassure voters worried the party is losing its way. She’d fight tirelessly for conservative priorities like gun rights, restricting immigration and abortion. Her outsider status and “America First” stance would resonate with much of middle America. While moderates and progressives loathe her, MTG is adored by a sizable segment of the population. Tapping into that base could be key to winning in 2024.
She’s Not Afraid to Speak Her Mind
Whether you agree with her or not, Marjorie Taylor Greene is not afraid to speak her mind. She says what she thinks without worrying about political correctness or consequences. While her shoot-from-the-hip style frequently gets her into hot water, her supporters see it as a breath of fresh air. They believe she tells it like it is instead of spouting empty talking points. As VP, you’d always know where she stands on the issues. She’d never hold back in sharing her opinion, for better or worse.
In the end, a Marjorie Taylor Greene vice presidency is a roll of the dice. She’d either take the Republican party to new heights of power and influence or tear it apart in the process. One thing’s for sure, if she ended up a heartbeat away from the presidency, it’d be a nail-biting thrill ride like no other. God bless America!
The Major Drawbacks of Putting MTG a Heartbeat Away
So, you’re thinking of putting Marjorie Taylor Greene a mere heartbeat away from the presidency. What could possibly go wrong? Plenty, as it turns out.
She’s a Conspiracy Theorist’s Dream Date
MTG has promoted more conspiracy theories than a guy in a tinfoil hat at a Star Trek convention. Jewish space lasers starting wildfires? Check. QAnon? She’s a fan. False flag school shootings? Yep, she’s retweeted that. If she became VP, the tinfoil hat crowd would rejoice while the rest of us bang our heads against the wall.
She Has the Diplomacy of a Sledgehammer
Let’s face it, MTG is about as subtle as Godzilla in a china shop. She picks fights with everyone from AOC to her own party leaders. Her negotiation style is more scorched earth than win-win. World leaders would likely avoid her like week-old sushi, damaging our foreign relations.
She’s a Fundraising Machine…For the Other Side
Think of MTG as a walking, talking Democratic fundraising email. Every controversial statement, every eyeroll-inducing tweet, every fringe belief she spouts is another few million dollars in the Democratic war chest. “Donate now to stop the madness!” With her on the ticket, the Dems wouldn’t even need a platform, just MTG’s Twitter feed.
While MTG may appeal to a certain base, putting someone with her views and temperament a heartbeat from the presidency poses serious risks. Of course, given the current political climate, stranger things have already happened. Let’s just hope the country doesn’t end up regretting it.
Could Marjorie Taylor Greene Realistically Become Vice President in 2024?
Listen, stranger things have happened in politics, but MTG becoming VP in 2024 is a long shot. Like, really long. We’re talking lottery-winner odds here, folks.
She’s an Unproven Freshman Congresswoman
Marjorie’s been in Congress for about 5 minutes, relatively speaking. She’s still learning how to play nice with the other representatives and has already been stripped of her committee assignments. Not exactly a stunning show of leadership. Before her election, her experience was…well, nonexistent. Unless you count harassing school shooting victims as relevant experience. (You shouldn’t.)
She’s Too “Out There” Even for Trump
While Donny and Marjorie are clearly friends (aw, how sweet), even the former president knows she’s too extreme to share a ticket with. Her views on Jewish space lasers and 9/11 trutherism would drag down his chances with moderate Republicans and independents. The GOP wants to win in 2024, not become a permanent minority party.
The Republican Establishment Hates Her Guts
Mitch McConnell and Kevin McCarthy wish MTG would disappear into a wormhole to a parallel universe. Her wackadoodle shenanigans are a constant embarrassment and distraction. They know she has zero chance of appealing to mainstream voters. There’s no way they’d support her as a VP pick.
Could MTG defy the odds and become Vice President Marjorie Taylor Greene? Hey, in this crazy mixed-up world we live in, anything’s possible. But don’t bet your life savings on it. The smart money says her odds of becoming VP are about as good as me dating Brad Pitt. (Read: not gonna happen.)
Conclusion
So could MTG be our next VP? Hey, in this crazy world, anything’s possible. Heck, a reality TV star made it all the way to the Oval Office, so why not hand the nuclear codes to a conspiracy theorist who barely made it through her GED? Just imagine late-night tweet storms about Jewish space lasers and school shootings being false flags. Doesn’t that warm your heart? But before you engrave “Marjorie Taylor Greene, Vice President” on the government stationery, maybe take a beat. Remember what happened the last time we put an extremist a heartbeat away from the presidency? Let’s not go for a sequel. The box office returns would be lousy. Our nation deserves better than this. But that’s up to us, isn’t it? We get to choose how this movie ends in 2024. The power is in our hands. Hopefully we use it wisely this time.
