The news comes amid speculation that the Georgia congresswoman is on the shortlist for Trump's vice president.
She thinks she’s going to get the VP nod from Trump. As usual, she’s fucking delusional.
She can be delusional, correct, and under investigation all at the same time, and it would be far from the weirdest thing she’s been involved in.
It’s like nobody ready the article. It says she’s considering challenging Kemp in a primary for Georgia Governor because he’s not defending Trump.
Edit: apparently I can read better - she wants to run against Kemp in the primary when he runs for Senate, not Governor.
What a crappy headline... Poorly executed click-bait that misinforms more than it informs.
But Kemp's serving his second term as Governor. He can't run again unless he waits 4 years after he's out of office. Which will be in 2026. EmptyG would have a whole another term as a congresswoman before we vote on the governor
I also didn't read the article, but are you sure that's what it said?
Ah, I slightly misread - she wants to run against him in the primary when he runs for Senate. I’ll edit my comment. Thanks for pointing that out.
It's all good. I think the bot kind of messed up the summary too.
If he does run for senate, I'll do my best to keep him out. We've got two great senators right now, I don't think he can beat either one. But who knows, it's all going to come down to messaging.
Ah I get it now. My dumb ass thought Marjorie Taylor Greene was supporting Magic: The Gathering
Goddamn I hope she runs for gov.
Kemp is term-limited. He has to sit out from the office for the next term before he can run again, which means he'll probably seek some other office in the meantime. And whatever he runs for he's almost certain to get.
People talk about GA being a swing state, but it fucking isn't. MAGA doesn't do great statewide, but the GOP has near total control with little contest.
MTG on the ticket is EXACTLY what the GA Dems need to make some serious inroads in statewide elections.
“Swing state” is such a misnomer for any of them. They have one drunk Tuesday and never live it down.
That's a misread of the article/summary. It's saying that Kemp (the current GA governor) is talking about a Senate run and MTG would challenge him in a primary for the GOP Senate nomination.
Yeah, somehow I don’t think she’s actually stupid enough to run for governor where she’d actually have to handle anything significant or within this realm of reality. Congressional troll or VP-hype-troll is a better fit for her.
If she goes the VP route, hopefully she ends up a political nobody like that dink from alaska
At least Pence had the decency to stand up to Trump and finalize the votes. I mean he drew the line in the sand just before committing treason, but he at least drew it somewhere. Can't say the same for a lot of other Republicans right now.
I don't think that's clickbait. I assumed running for a different office was by far the most likely reason before even clicking.
Did her state introduce a literacy test she can't pass?
Or will she refuse because reading all those erotic stories would be a sin.
IE: she's been offered a high-paying job fucking something else up in the private sector, probably to as much of the detriment of the human race as scientifically possible.
I don't even think Republicans are stupid enough to entertain that notion, but I've been sadly wrong before when estimating the stupidity of the GOP.
Trump is likely to pick the most horrible person possible, so I assume that she is a contender.
She won't. Trump said we'd never hear from again if he lost the election. They crave the spotlight.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Flamethrowing GOP representative Marjorie Taylor Greene has suggested she might not defend her seat in Congress next fall after two commanding victories in Georgia's 14th District.
Following comments by Georgia Governor Brian Kemp—who is reportedly weighing a run for the U.S. Senate in 2026—criticizing recent, disproven assertions by Donald Trump that he won the battleground state in 2020, Greene said she might be willing to challenge Kemp in a GOP primary.
Assuming, of course, Trump doesn't decide to name her as his running mate after winning the Republican presidential nomination.
After publicly breaking with the far-right Freedom Caucus early this year to support the election of House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, with Trump's endorsement, Greene has been in lockstep with the former president.
In addition to Greene, Republicans like New York Representative Elise Stefanik and unsuccessful Arizona gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake are seen as top contenders along with Florida Representative Byron Donalds, another close Trump ally and a rising GOP star in the House.
Other possible names include South Carolina Senator Tim Scott, a 2024 presidential candidate who has been largely left unscathed by Trump's withering attacks on his GOP competitors on the campaign trail.
I'm a bot and I'm open source!
Satan's insulted. She's not competent enough to run a wheelbarrow race let alone the largest jobs program in the realms.
Maybe. On the other hand, can you imagine being middle management in her department of hell? That's a punishment all on its own.
