It might seem weird to say something that a lot of people agree with and still get blasted with social media snark, but thats what happened to Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) on Monday.
Like politicians on both sides of the aisle , the Georgia lawmaker called on Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle to resign in the aftermath of the July 13 assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump .
Greene is one of 12 Republicans and three Democrats who suggested they wanted Cheatle to step down during her House Oversight Committee hearing. The list includes Rep. James Comer (R-Ky.), Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.), Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.), Jared Moskowitz (D-Fla.) and Ro Khanna (D-Calif.).
However, Greenes particular demand became the subject of many snarky remarks all because of her choice of words on social media.
Ive never seen a more incompetent woman in my life, the lawmaker wrote, before launching into a full-on conspiracy theory .
Given Greenes notoriety for spreading other conspiracy theories , starting fights in Oversight Committee hearings and botching basic facts , perhaps its no surprise that many people keyed in on her use of the word incompetent.
