“Programs to address education, medical care, urban problems, rural poverty, transportation, Medicare, Medicaid, labor unions, and he still is working on it,” she said.

The White House immediately pounced on Ms Greene’s flattering description of Mr Biden’s efforts, writing on Twitter: “Caught us. President Biden is working to make life easier for hardworking families”.

LOL love it.

She's a fascist & a moron.

Yeah, I figured that she was saying the things she does because it riles up her base, but this last bit has made me decide that she’s genuinely stupid. If she had any sense at all she would have noticed that the phrasing of her remarks could sound like praise, and would have changed it to something unambiguously critical.

I'm just surprised she made it through all that without calling another republican a little bitch.

Is MTG crossing the aisle? /s

She might just be a narcissist and knew that would gain attention for her.

I'd love to see the Second Bill of Rights implemented! (no way that will happen while Wall Street has control)

His reelection campaign should quote her.

[–] chaogomu@kbin.social 5 points 1 year ago

They already did. Put out a full campaign ad using her speech and everything. That's what this article is about.

[–] Unaware7013@kbin.social 4 points 1 year ago

They did better than that, they put a video of her praise to music and are using it as an ad

Good for Biden.

She doesn't have any sense at all, does she? She has no business even running a bake sale. I'll never understand why so many choose to be represented by morons.
