Marjorie Taylor Greene And Matt Gaetz Are Reportedly Burning Through Money At An Alarming Rate As Their New PAC Seems To Be Nothing More Than A Money Pit Just 6 Months In

Oof. What a tragedy.

Frankly, if the majority of Americans were forced to choose the two most obnoxious members of the Republican Party, I’d bet my own paycheck that at least 90 percent of those polled would choose Florida’s Matt Gaetz and Georgia’s Marjorie Taylor Greene. To be quite honest, the pair doesn’t even have to do a whole hell of a lot to just turn people’s stomachs.

But, being the good GOP minions that they are, that certainly doesn’t stop them from making even bigger asses of themselves anyway.

Recently, the Republican Party’s two Stooges have seemingly made it their life’s mission to spread their absolute garbage from coast to coast across the U.S. of A. To do so, the pair launched their Put America First PAC — traveling the nation under their political action committee’s umbrella, spreading their disproved nonsense. Greene and Gaetz campaigned for their PAC under the guise of Congresspeople for the people, bragging that they had the unyielding support of the average voter. However, much like their campaign promises and conspiracy theories, the test determined that was pretty much a big, fat lie.

As it turns out, many of their scheduled events have ultimately been canceled and those that weren’t didn’t manage to make much money at all.

To make matters worse for the less than dynamic duo, reports are now claiming that the well of campaign donations for the two has run dry, as those who used to support the GOP congressman and woman have rapidly grown tired of their schemes and antics.

According to reports, Gaetz and Greene filled their summer with efforts to fundraise for their new PAC, but now, a mere six months into its launch, they’re damn near broke.

The Put America First PAC had a decent start, raising about $360,000 in the first two months of its existence, but only have about $13,000 left in their pocketbook these days — mostly as a result of multiple cancellations due to public protests breaking out any time they would book a facility for their events.

The pair was able to pull off a “major” event in Iowa recently, that boasted a ton of media coverage. But ultimately, the big event cost them more than it made them. Greene and Gatez’s PAC raised a mere $57,000 in July, August, and September only to spend more than $157,000.

Reports have also noted that donations to the pair’s PAC have hit an all-time low as of late. Most specifically, the sex-scandal-ridden Congressman Gaetz is going big-time broke as voters turn away from him in droves amid allegations that he’s involved in underage sex trafficking.

In the first quarter of the year, Gaetz managed to rake in a pretty hefty $1.8M but saw a dramatic dip down to $500,000 in the following quarter on the heels of his alleged sex scandal. This last quarter, Gaetz actually spent more money trying to raise money than he actually brought in.

Marjorie Taylor Greene apparently isn’t doing much better herself in the money department, as she reportedly pulled in a staggering $3.2M the first quarter, only to dip to $1.5M in the last quarter. Of that $1.5 million, only about $500,000 saw its way to the bank, as the Q-Anon Congresswoman blew through $1 million of it just to raise the $1.5M.

Frankly, it appears as though Greene and Gaetz’s glory days are already over before they even really started.
