ATLANTA (AP) ā U.S. Rep.Ā Marjorie Taylor GreeneĀ announced Tuesday that she wonāt run for governor in Georgia in 2026, putting an end to her flirtation with the race in aĀ long social media postĀ saying she is turned off by a political āgood ole boyā system and alleging that it was endangering Republican control of the state.
Greene chose earlierĀ not to run for SenateĀ under pressure from Republicans who feared she would hand a second term to Democratic incumbentĀ Jon Ossoff. But she told reporters she might instead run for governorĀ during a June appearanceĀ at the Georgia Republican Party convention in Dalton, where she wore a āMake Georgia Great Againā hat and discussing state issues.
. . . āOne day, I might just without the blessing from the good ole boys club or the out-of-state consulting leeches or even without the blessing of my favorite president,ā Greene wrote. āOne day, I might just run purely out of the blessing of the wonderful people of Georgia, my family and friends, but it wonāt be in 2026.ā
. . . In her social media post, she alleged that a āvery established āMen Onlyā Republican firm is unfortunately overseeing the slow slide from red to blueā and that self interest is blocking the GOP from addressing real issues.
Stop teasing us America ā¦ we know what bat shit crazy politics youāre capable of.
I wonāt believe sheās out of politics until I see her out of politics.
I wonāt believe it until I see her corpse with a stake through her shriveled heart.
ā¦ and considering the state of US politics, even if that were to actually happen, there would still be a part of me that wouldnāt be surprised if she came back anyway.
a stake through the heart usually takes care of most forms of undead.
wonder if the pope would lend us some holy water, just in case.
