More people need to realize this. We want to make the anti-Trump coalition as big as possible. If that includes Tucker and Green, then so be it. Now is not a time to be choosy about who we welcome.
That did not work during the last election when you had people like Dick Cheney endorse Kamala Harris. It may have alienated those on the left who felt that the anti-Trump coalition was selling out to neo-conservatives.
It absolutely is the time to be choosy. All these recently awakened anti-Trump grifters had no problem causing immense harm and spreading lies, stoking violence, and actively ruining the country and contributing to this exact state of affairs when they believed it would benefit them. Very convenient of them to only start "speaking out" (i. e. saying the most tepid, obvious criticisms) now because Trump and his regime are immensely unpopular. They don't deserve a pat on the back for (allegedly) coming to conclusions that any sane, moral person already came to a decade ago, especially not after they financially benefited massively from their nonsense. If MTG and Tucker are genuinely and wholly devoted to repairing the harm they've caused, then they can go right ahead (as of now, they've still yet to do anything beyond soapbox). But they can do that without us accepting them with open arms. They're not my allies and I don't forgive them for shit. They're still enemies until they prove otherwise,and that'll take a lot of proving.
Just need to keep an asterisk next to her name with what she did. People have short memories. It wouldn't help to let her weasel her way back into relevance simply because she has said a few things against her party
My comment has nothing to do with whoever the Democrat nominee is embracing her and using her on the campaign trail. My point has to do with me reading her comment and keeping it moving. Furthermore, if we are talking elections she might be more useful in her home state of Georgia than she is nationally. I am talking about statewide elections
My comment has nothing to do with whoever the Democrat nominee is embracing her and using her on the campaign trail.
Where do you see me claiming that you made that argument? That was my argument. So many believed Liz Cheney had changed and now people are believing the same about MTG.
I don't get why posts like this always brings out more criticism of the ones criticising Trump than of Trump. We don't need to like or trust them, she has said and done horrible things, but Trump is the one in actual dangerous power and the more voices that are against him and his government for whatever reason is a good thing.

Anybody that trusts this woman or Tucker Carlson has worms in their brain.
