Steve McMahan, a 68-year-old retired laborer from Ringgold, Georgia, doesn’t believe most Republicans have what it takes to stop Democrats in Congress from “destroying our country.”
But there is one congresswoman he thinks has that fight in her – Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Rome.
“It kind of seems like Marjorie stands on her own in that sense,” McMahan said. “I like what she stands for … She’s a lot like Trump. I’m a Donald Trump man, too. I’m not a liberal Democrat God-hating communist. That’s what the rest of them are. A lot of Republicans are the same way. I know people up there hate her guts, and that’s why I like her.”
McMahan isn’t alone in thinking Greene could use some support these days.
In the first three months of 2021, Greene raised $3.2 million from donors across the country, more than any other Republican in the House. In those months, she was kicked off her legislative committees and was tied up in controversies for things she said and posted online, apologizing for some of them but never losing support from her base.
