US Politics

This is literally all that MTG does other than appear on all the right wing shows. She doesn't even pretend to be interested in governing or passing a bill that will actually get anywhere.
 
Ohio seems to be an up and coming place - voted to put the right to abortion in the state constitution and to legalise recreational marijuana.

Kentucky re-elects a Democratic governor and rejecting Trump and MConnell's guy in red state

Real results in elections beats polls any day and it sure looks like abolishing/restricting aborytion rights is a vote loser for the GOP

How she won 66% of her district is baffling.

America truly is FUBAR.

Surprised I’ve never seen that article before.

I was wondering what to do for lunch, a triple order of WH hash browns scattered, smothered, & covered with a patty melt seems perfect right now.

Historically, Waffle House has been the go to destination for a 3am breakfast after heavy night of partying, and there's no Dennys or iHOP nearby.

Not when you know where her district is, I have the misfortune to travel thru it on a regular basis, it's a bastion of gun toting rednecks and religious nutjobs, it's prime MAGA country

It takes a special kind of self-loathing to go to WH in the daytime & not with a hangover.

Yeah, I think Marge will be in Congress for some time. She's in a red district during an era where the Rs are only getting crazier, so there won't be much in the way of moderate R pushback against her in her district. As for state wide, I don't think she would stand a chance. Her best grift is to continue wumming it up on social media, then fundraise off it (nevermind actually governing).

I'm a little surprised that she only got 66%, she has zero chance statewide in the near/mid future, Kemp is in office until 2027 as Governor and running for the senate in GA is a stretch and 3 years away

The E & SE portions of her district include the exurbs of Atlanta which help a bit to offset the ruby red portions of her further NW area.

GA is one of the formerly red states that is trending blue because it has a large population center. It will probably become fully blue at some point just as Colorado did a decade ago and AZ seems to be doing more recently. Both also have large population centers.

Is anyone shocked that a failed restaurant owner that was seemingly elected on nothing more than "making liberals cry" can't even participate in a banal legislative discussion?

All she wants is the cash, the fame, and to get fondled at Beetlejuice.

I'm saving that for the cat 5 hurricane my man. And every trump flag in the Villages to block the storm drains and flood those assholes out as a bonus. Florida needs a good wash.

@calodo2003 will correct me if I'm wrong but I'm reasonably sure that district doesn't cover The Villages
