    She was insanely disrespectful. Refusing to refer to him as doctor. Not to mention, these motherfuckers are peddling conspiracy theories at him and placing the blame on him like we didn’t have a President who didn’t give a shit calling the shots. I hope the institutional rot is becoming visible and stripped clean rather than setting in.

      She, in particular, does seem to be earning more rebuke from her Republican peers of late. Some of them have recognized that the antics on display by Greene and her ilk are beginning to wear on constituents more and more by the day, and are attempting to distance themselves in acts of self preservation.

      While I hope that it doesn’t work and that these folks also lose their voice and seat, it does seem to bode well that at least a minor course correction is happening in the GOP, if not far too late. I’m not completely optimistic, though, because the constituency hasn’t suddenly become less divided - we’ve just seemingly found the bounds of the caricature the right wing of this country is comfortable with being publicly represented by.
