Marjorie Taylor Greene warns Joe Biden is trying to “finish what FDR started” by trying to address problems related to “rural poverty”, “education,” and “medical care.” She warns it’s similar to when LBJ passed “Medicare and Medicaid.” (@Acyn)

1. Letting people know who wants to take away the most popular, life-saving programs in history!

[wnylib]

2. And who it is that is defending them.

[Casady1]

3. Someone should ask her about the Rural Electrification

I live 10 miles from where MTG went to high school. Almost all of GA including Cobb County is an EMC. I call on EMC's everyday. These were started in the '30's to provide rural America electrification. Georgia Power was not going to build out its infrastructure to have rural counties get electricity. Why not ask her about that Democratic program.

[MiHale]

5. EMC?

[Casady1]

7. EMC's were developed

so rural areas could get funding to electrify their area. They are still in existence today.

[Buns_of_Fire]

15. Electric Membership Corporation.

They're cooperatives, user-owned. Like a credit union in the financial world,

[MiHale]

16. Thanks!

[Marthe48]

27. We belonged to one till we moved

After 20 years, you get dividends from each year you were a member. Even if you aren't in the coop the whole 20 years, you'll get an annual dividend for each year you were a member. The size of the dividend was related to the amount of electricity you used, and how much your bills were. The drawback is that it doesn't encourage members to conserve.

My kids are members of a coop in the county we live in now.

[Croney]

4. Yes! Just leave off the last 30 seconds of gibberish and run it as is.

Just superimpose VOTE BLUE over it.

[Hortensis]

23. Lol, absolutely. Sounds like someone cut and pasted a summary

of the Great Society advances, etc, and she just cluelessly read them off. Skip her lies, keep the truth.

Incredible! Pretty sure we're going to be seeing parts of this again.

[uponit7771]

6. On planet MAGA Medicare and Medicaid are unpopular for 5ge rest of America this vid is a home run

[usonian]

8. Johnson and his policies were wildly unpopular, I recall.

With almost nobody.

[Hekate]

9. She says that like it's a bad thing

[brush]

10. Who advises this dummy? FDR's New Deal and LBJ's Great Society...

are the federal programs that accomplished the most beneficial aspects of life for the average American.

The programs helped people, not just corporations and the rich.

She's just a mic hog who will spew anything for attention. In this instance she doesn't even know she's helping Biden.

[BigOleDummy]

20. On behalf of all dummies everywhere....

I resent being lumped in with that piece of human crap. A REAL Dummy has his/her eyes open and can see whats being done to our country by these magaloons.

Shes an idiot...... not a dummy.

[brush]

24. Heehee. I stand corrected.

[CentralMass]

11. She is dumber the a box of rocks.

12. We lost our freedoms when they took away Roe

[Wounded Bear]

14. A big chunk of them, for sure...and they're still coming for the rest...nt

[Wounded Bear]

13. Well, yeah...nt

[Grumpy Old Guy]

17. What a moron!

[Duppers]

18. Not to make fun or anything, but....😉

She looks like a housewife from Deliverance.

[Butterflylady]

19. You just can't make this stuff up.

Stupidity abounds in republicans.

[GoCubsGo]

21. Giving Tommy Tuberville a run for "Most Stupid Person in Congress."

But, I"m sure it's just a matter of time before BoBo or someone else will say, "Here! Hold my beer!" It seems like stupidity and ignorance are prerequisites for being a Republican these days...

22. "When someone shows you who they are, believe them the first time."

--Maya Angelou

It's hard to believe, but this really is who they are.

[Sky Jewels]

25. Good Lord! We wouldn't want a president to actually HELP Americans!

The horror!

[Fla Dem]

26. Yes!! Please DEMS, take this snippet of her speech and make it the Democratic campaign ad.

Why yes Majorie, we, the Democrats have accomplished a lot since FDR and the American people have benefitted greatly!
We will not go back to trickledown economics that made the made the rich richer, or lower taxes on the top 10% people of wealth like Trump did and blow up the National Debt to (1)$7.8 trillion and score the 3rd largest deficit in American history.

28. When someone attacks LBJ's great society, it makes me see red.

Those programs (plus a now defunct scholarship program in my state) are the reason I, a broke ass first generation college student from a broke ass family are the reason I was able to get a college education and graduate with only about 1K of debt. It's also the reason a lot of other kids like me were able to go to college.

The Great Society was very popular, as that electoral map shows. LBJ was a very popular president until his misguided policies on the Vietnam War led to a huge backlash. He could have continued to be a popular president if not for that. Instead, he became so UNpopular that he decided not to even run for reelection. VP Humphrey couldn't overcome the taint of being associated with the Johnson administration, and we ended up with Nixon.

I was as upset with the escalation of the Vietnam War under LBJ as most people my age were at the time, but I will always be grateful for the difference his Great Society policies made in my life and the lives of many others. MTG has no idea wtf she's talking about, so she needs to back the fuck off, ALL THE WAY OFF.

[PatrickforB]

38. Well I have always thought JFK's assassination was the coup where the Military

Industrial Complex became a massive, ever-growing parasite on the US budget.

The Great Society was excellent public policy. Problem was, Wall Street and the MIC didn't like it because it didn't maximize PROFITS for shareholders.

Silly LBJ, they thought - that man wants to wage war on poverty. We can't have that! We want a nice little costly war in Vietnam! Why, we NEED (the shareholders NEED) to sell, sell, sell all kinds of death toys because hey, PROFITS!

We lost that war, but Wall Street came out the BIG winner! Lots of PROFITS, and when we had 911, that was when Bushy REALLY pulled out the stopper and inflated the budget until it is NOW over 50% of our entire budget. For 'defense.'

And we're so fucking corrupt even the Democrats might not be able to overcome that, especially with the corporate-controlled Supreme Court.

This is about policy. We can either use the 84% of tax revenue generated by individual taxpayers like you and me for programs that materially benefit families on Main Street, OR we can continue systematically funneling those public monies to billionaire parasites and corporations. That bronze bull-idol on Wall Street be HUNGRY for more, more, more, more PROFITS.

Greed is driving this show, folks. Sheer naked, ugly Wall Street greed.

[90-percent]

29. geezis!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

FDR was the greatest American President since Honest Abe. He won WW2 and created the post war middle class and the post war prosperity up until Reagan implemented trickle down voo doo economics,

-90% Jimmy

socialism: i do not think it means what you think it means Traitor Green

[usaf-vet]

31. That is one loudmouth dumb b***h. Spelling out all the thing Democrats have done for the citizen.

While Trump's goal was to grift every penny he could for himself and his kids. WHILE at the same time single handly causing more lawyers to lose their license to practice law and throwing his staff under the bus every chance he gets.

While kissing Putin's a$$ when he wasn't kissing the a$$e$ of other world dictators.

[Old Crank]

32. She and the GOP want to finish

what Herbert Hoover started.

[rurallib]

33. Among all the stuff she got wrong - LBJ was

APPOINTED president?

Does she do anything with her pocket constitution besides wipe her ass with it?

I would sure love to have some far right winger like her define socialism and then tell us what is wrong with working together to solve mutual problems. And also tell us why some billionaire must profit on the pain of the masses.

[kacekwl]

34. Thanks 3 toes. Notice how

she put emphasis on "Urban problems". Wink wink.

[Fla Dem]

35. Kick

[PatrickforB]

36. Why on earth would we not want to support Biden so he can 'finish'

what FDR started?

She really isn't all that smart, is she? Well, we knew that, but their messaging to gin up fear in their crazy base is finally breaking down.

Republicans have not been able to defend their positions morally since maybe Ike was in the White House, and they cannot defend them economically now.

[KS Toronado]

37. Who is RSBN? Can't recall seeing that one before.

Republican Stupid Broadcasting Network ?

[flying_wahini]

39. I saw let's keep asking her about it, over and over so Magas can hear it again. And again.

She may turn out to be our best ad yet.
