As to why it (IMO) qualifies:

“My children are 22, 25, and 27. I will literally fight ANYONE for their future,” Greene wrote. “And their future and their entire generation’s future MUST be free of America LAST foreign wars that provoke terrorists attacks on our homeland, military drafts, and NUCLEAR WAR.”

Hence, she feels her support is threatening her kids.

“MTG getting her face eaten” was not on my 2025 bingo card, though she is in the early stage of face eating.

    I just found out is Greene is not running for Senate in 2026, per her announcement in May:

    https://www.fox5atlanta.com/news/marjorie-taylor-greene-declines-2026-senate-bid-wishes-ossoff-good-luck

    “We all know how these elite retreats work,” Greene wrote. “Many of the attendees hate Trump, backed DeSantis, look down on MAGA, and refused to fight when our election was stolen in 2020.”

    Basically she’s saying she’s dissatisfied with the Republican establishment, so this new statement is actually in line with recent ones. It’s not hurting her that much.

    It kinda weakens my “Leopards Ate My Face” justification (as politically she can do whatever she wants), hence I’m wondering if I should delete or move this post?

      To clarify she is currently in the House, not the Senate. So her declining to run in the Senate has nothing to do with her staying and running to stay in the House.

      Also this statement is from May, and her complaints are that people aren’t supporting Trump enough. Now in June, she isn’t supporting Trump. That sounds Leopard to me.
