'Can't fight karma': Marjorie Taylor Greene mocked as she mispronounces Laken Riley's name while slamming Joe Biden for doing the same

ROME, GEORGIA: Rep Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) is said to have mispronounced the name of the 22-year-old deceased nursing student Laken Riley on Saturday, March 9, which is similar to what she has accused President Joe Biden of doing.

The MAGA-aligned Georgia congresswoman gained notoriety when she forced the President to say Laken Riley's name at his State of the Union address.

According to a report by Raw Story, Riley's name was mentioned by Biden, although some claimed he mispronounced it.

The 81-year-old incumbent president also faced criticism for claiming Riley was murdered by an "illegal."

Later, during an MSNBC interview, President Biden expressed regret for the "illegal" comment.

Greene later claimed that Biden mispronounced Laken Riley's name.

When did Marjorie Taylor Greene slip up?

During the Saturday night interview with News Nation, Rep Greene discussed her experience at the State of the Union address that took place on Thursday, March 7.

In recounting the event, the Georgia Republican appeared to have mispronounced the name of the deceased 22-year-old nursing student, referring to her as "Lincoln" Riley.

"We've all been questioning his mental capacity," Greene asserted in regards to the Commander-in-Chief.

She said that she had shouted, "Say her name, Lincoln Riley," as President Biden engaged in an impromptu exchange with her as he held up a pin she had given him before his State of the Union speech began.

“He picked up the pin and he had it there easy to read, Laken, but he said Lincoln Riley," Greene argued.

According to the report by News Nation, Greene's pronunciation was incorrect, and this was also the case with President Biden when he referred to the same individual during Thursday’s SOTU speech.

"I do want to get your reaction to what we just heard from congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene," the News Nation host said.

Additionally, the host remarked, "Even Trump tonight criticizing Biden for mispronouncing Lincoln Riley's name. And then we hear the congresswoman, speaking to us, also mispronouncing Laken Riley's name at one point during that sound bite."

Internet shreds Marjorie Taylor Greene

Another user said, "This couldn't have backfired any better"

One user claimed, "Foot in mouth disease is strong in the GOP. Even Trump couldn't get her name right. Oh, the hypocrisy."
