Marjorie Taylor Greene roasted online for claiming Democrats using Ukraine war as 'campaign strategy'
NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene took to social media to claim that the Biden administration will use the war in Ukraine as a "last ditch effort" to spread propaganda in light of former president Donald Trump's rising popularity and decisive win in Iowa.
She also slammed Ukraine in her post, calling it one of the "most corrupt countries" in the world.
However, her claim of Democrats wanting to "delay or even cancel elections" in a climate of conflict did not resonate with internet users, who slammed the Georgia representative for spreading "disinformation" herself.
Marjorie Taylor Greene's tweet on war
The particularly long tweet from the 49-year-old politician began, "War. It’s their next move now that Trump won so decisively in Iowa and will continue to dominate."
She dived straight into slamming Ukraine, writing, "Never forget that the Biden regime calls Ukraine a democracy. This is one of the most corrupt countries on Earth who destroyed free press, tortured, and killed an American journalist, installed censorship on their people, and canceled their elections to keep a war going and the US taxpayers money flowing into their pockets."
"Washington is on a desperate last ditch effort to keep funding their losing war against Russia and have been turning the war machine to Iran. To Washington, war is good business and feeds the defense industrial base. The media loves it too. It’s great for ratings and the media keeps viewers screen locked and gripped in fear. And now that they have finally accepted Trump is going to win with historic numbers, they will use war as a campaign strategy," she continued.
"The Democrats have praised their beloved 'democracy' of Ukraine and just like Ukraine Democrats would love to have a reason to delay or even cancel elections all “for your safety. Almost every single major social media platform, except hopefully this one, is going to censor you. Again. Because the communist democrats fully believe they must control the narrative of 'truth.'"
The media drew flak in Greene's rant next, as she stated, "And we know what to expect from the media. Propaganda to convince you of the lies they are going to continue spinning. Support their war. Feel sorry for their next chosen group. Hate their enemy they tell you to hate. Be labeled racists and every other hate label they can create and smear us with just because we disagree with their agenda. Comply to their rules 'for your safety' from whatever is the current thing they tell you to fear."
The rant ended with a warning that read, "But the next war is going to suck everyone in on a level none of us want and in ways generations of us have never seen in our lifetimes. Because they (Democrats) are now desperate and view war as their only option to continue to hold power and stop us from breaking free once and for all."
"Losing and accepting they will lose and changing their ways because the American people hate Democrat policies is not an option for them. Total and complete control and compliance is their ultimate goal and they don’t want you to have a choice."
War.
