Marjorie Taylor Greene is getting raked over the coals in a bad kind of way after she put her hypocrisy and insincerity on full display for the whole world to see in the wake of the horrifying, violent attack against former President Donald Trump.
Recently, ex-President and 2024 Republican frontrunner Donald Trump was the target of what has now been formally dubbed an assassination attempt, after shots rang out at his Pennsylvania rally Saturday evening.
Ultimately, the former president was left shaken, but largely unharmed, suffering only a minor nick to the top of his right ear by an AR-15 bullet, fired from a nearby roof by the gunman who has since been identified as 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks.
In the wake of the attack, controversial, far-Right Colorado Republican Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene was among the handful of Republican members of Congress to harness the violent attack as leverage against the Democrats, openly blaming the party and, more specifically, sitting President Joe Biden, for the attempt on Donald Trump’s life.
Greene, specifically, was quick to try to call Democrats out on their rhetoric, with specific interest in the Left’s labeling of Donald Trump as a very real and very dangerous threat to this nation’s democracy.

Yet, it seems that Marjorie doesn’t believe that those rhetoric rules and regulations shouldn’t actually apply to herself.
Taking to her X (formerly known as Twitter) account, Marjorie Taylor Greene ramped up the same type of unhinged rhetoric against the Democratic Party that she attempted to trash the party for just hours before.
“We are in a battle between GOOD and EVIL,” Greene wrote in her social media post, captioning a video of her interview on Right-wing outlet Real America’s Voice in the aftermath of the shooting. “The Democrats are the party of pedophiles, murdering the innocent unborn, violence, and bloody, meaningless, endless wars.”
“They want to lock up their political opponents, and terrorize innocent Americans who would tell the truth about it,” she goes on to write. “The Democrat party is flat out evil, and yesterday they tried to murder President Trump.”

Suffice it to say, the comments section was not kind to Greene, with many calling on her to “resign in disgrace” over her “reprehensible” public statements:
Resign in disgrace.
It was a Republican.

Donald Trump almost got shot dead by a Republican gun nut wielding an AR-15 — and this is how you respond?
You’re truly beyond deplorable…

RESIGN. The shooter was a Republican. Isn’t it Donald who had his rally goers chant lock her up? Didn’t you call for a 1776 insurrection? pic.twitter.com/FquazjLMsx
