Marjorie Greene is Still Calling Democrats Pedophiles.
And this time she used 60 minutes to do it.
Republicans get away with a lot, don’t they?
There are few things more frustrating about the American political discourse than the uneven playing field and disparity when it comes to what’s considered acceptable rhetoric from the right wing and Democrats. No one in federal politics today loves to test that line, of course, more than Georgia congresswoman Marjorie Greene. Well, I suppose it should come as no surprise that she decided to use the recent platform given to her by none other than 60 Minutes to call Democrats pedophiles yet again.
Althea Legaspi with Rolling Stone writes:
“During the segment filmed prior to Trump’s indictment, Stahl’s mostly softball interview discussed Greene’s rise in the Republican Party and what 60 Minutes described as her “America First, populist views,” including her assertion that Democrats are a party of “pedophiles.” She doubled-down on Sunday: “I would definitely say so they support grooming children,” she claimed, conflating Democrats’ support of trans rights to pedophilia…”
Here’s the thing…
Eventually, this is going to get someone hurt.
