Luke Zaleski, GQ Magazine, “Marge is a confederate soldier not an American public servant. She has taken over Congress and wants to destroy the nation from inside. She admits it. Her public agenda is reinstalling a criminal traitor she’s obstructing justice for and breaking up the United States of America”

Elie Mystal, The Nation, “The way you guys say her “nickname” is MTG… as if it’s a cute moniker bestowed by her besties… when her initials are just MTG and her “nicknames” are “Marjorie Three Names” and “Unfrozen Caveman Congresswoman” just shows that you’re here to launder her rep and complicit.”

Progressive activist Wajahat Ali, “MTG: I think you’re a pedophile groomer who works for the Soros-Backed Deep State and should be jailed and beaten up for spreading lies against Trump and MAGA. 60 Minutes: That is terrible! Would you like a fawning, exclusive, sit-down interview that will mainstream your poison?”

“JoJo from Jerz”, “I don’t wanna hear shit about how Marjorie Taylor Greene being on 60 Minutes “makes sense” or any other bullshit attempt to rationalize or excuse it. She’s a hateful, pathological racist, an unrepentant conspiracy theorist, a trump propagandist and a traitor.
Featuring her on that show will only legitimize her and embolden her further. Have they learned nothing from 2016?!?”
