The Georgia Republican has amassed a fan base in Russia.
Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene’s conspiracy theories, vitriolic language, and xenophobia have made her a darling of the right and a pariah on the left—and now, she’s gained admiration from Russian state television.
Greene’s attempts to block aid to Ukraine, her criticisms of NATO, and her beliefs that the United States should withdraw from the alliance have drawn plaudits from TV hosts in Russia, The Daily Beast reported Friday.
If she is promoting Kremlin propaganda, she is a traitor, IMHO. Unfortunately, she is likely protected under the first amendment.
She is so fucking stupid, she probably isn't getting paid to say the things she does. People like that already have a twisted sense of patriotism so she likely believes the horseshit she spews.
I understand that viewpoint, and I'm not saying she's any less of a problem just because I'm not willing to state that she's a literal traitor. She's obviously doing what she's doing, regardless of her reasons.

This is the Congressional Oath of Office she would have had to take at swearing in:
"I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter: So help me God."
makes me respect the gold bar senator bit more when its framed this way. If you're going to support a foreign country you could at least have the self respect to get paid.
Its so incredibly obvious that Putin supports everything that will weaken USA/EU/NATO-"The West" in the long run, economically, politically, you name it. Everything that will disassemble these systems, make them more vulnerable to corruption, reduces the trust people have in them. How the hell do these ultra-"patriotic" right wingers not see this while Putin is so clear and outspoken about it?
To answer your rhetorical question, because they are selling our country for a pittance. Look at this abomination's net worth before and after she is elected.
Haha, that was my guess even I saw the synopsis up there.
I've been saying the repubs are a fifth column for many, many years - even before Dozo the Clown came along and brought terrorists like Marj along with him. Even before they started using Putin shirtless on a horse as avatars (unironically).
And now it's right out there in the open. The cons HATE this country. Many have been able to see this for decades; now there is no hiding it.
