We Know “Who,” But “What” Is Marjorie Taylor Greene?

We all know “who” Marjorie Taylor Greene is: she reveals herself whenever she is in front of a television camera. She is an ignorant, ugly woman, inside and out, whose prejudices outnumber her brain cells. She is unfit for any political office in America because she is not an American: she is a fascist.

The MTG We See is MTG Revealing Herself

However “what” she is reveals why she is who she is. MTG is a hollow old crone filled with hate so intense, there is no comparison to any other politician who harbors hatred for their country. She joins Trump and his Klan in a deep and dark desire to end America once and for all. She told a crowd of young Republicans that ‘if she and Steve Bannon had led the insurrection on January 6, they would have succeeded.’

Her Past Reveals Little About How She Became the Most Extreme Right Wing Politician in Washington

By all accounts, MTG was a normal, white child, raised in the suburbs in Cumming, Georgia. Her father was a contractor, her mother a homemaker who later became her husbands business partner. She is the oldest of the Taylor’s two children, growing up in a three story house at the end of a cul-de-sac. However, Forsyth County became extremely racist in 1912 when a young white girl was found raped and beaten. She died three days later, and eventually four Black men were charged with the crime.

In 1987, after a white man organized a “Walk for Brotherhood” to remind local residents of the events of 1912, and they renewed their effort to prevent all Blacks from residing in the county which was supported by the all white population. Civil Rights leader, Hosea Williams, called Forsyth County the most racist country in the South.

She was “nice to everyone, upbeat, with tons of confidence,” recalls Leslie Hamburger, a friend of hers and her brother David’s. “I have nothing but good memories.”

However, it is important to discuss the “Heritage Book of Forsyth County.” It is revealed in this historical account that there were no census statistics for 1920. After the events of 1912, all of the Black population had been forced from this part of Georgia. The 1920 census would have revealed that there was no Black population in the county by that time. As of this day, there are no Blacks in Forsyth County. MTG was raised in the whitest area in America controlled by white supremacists. She knew nothing about her country and the changes which had taken place since her birth.

At What Point Was She Radicalized?

She went on to attend the University of Georgia, and married Perry Clarke Greene prior to her senior year in 1995. After graduating with degrees in business, the couple moved into a large home in Roswell, a suburb of Atlanta.

MTG quit her job in 2011 to “devote her life to Jesus.” A disgruntled Catholic, she now denounced the efforts of the Church to care for immigrants, and wrote to the ‘Church Militant’s’ website offering her views about undocumented aliens. She claimed that the result was “Satan controlling the church.” Bill Donohue of the conservative Catholic League demanded Greene’s apology. Instead, she explained her position, stating that:

“she had stopped attending Mass when she became a mother: when she’d ‘realized,’ she said in a statement, ‘that I could not trust the Church leadership to protect my children from pedophiles, and that they harbored monsters even in their own ranks.'”

Later she joined a non-denominational Christian church and was baptized in front of the congregation. There she began to form her own beliefs, although she often appeared confused, and disoriented.

Entering a Life of Politics From the Red State of Georgia

They had three children, and amassed a small fortune after purchasing her father’s business. Then, in 2020, she ran for a seat in the House of Representatives in north Georgia. The rest is a part of our current darkness in the ugly world of politics.

MTG continues to ramble and repeat Q’Anon theories while supporting the fascist ambitions of Donald Trump. Many of those close to her believe that her intention is to become Trump’s running mate in 2024.

I often repeat myself, claiming that judging the lives of others is moronic. Not even husbands and wives have complete knowledge of their partners, and unless you live with someone, you know very little about them.

However, in the case of MTG she has proven herself not only to be unfit for public office, she is not worthy of calling herself a citizen of the United States of America.
