In yet another display of her systematic disconnection from the basic reality of what’s going on around her, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) claimed during a recent right-wing media appearance that a push for members of Congress to get vaccinated against COVID-19 or wear face masks is “exactly the type of abuse” that Jews faced in the Holocaust, which is… wow. Could the Trumpist victim complex be any more staggering at this point? Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) condemned Greene’s rhetoric on Twitter, calling it “evil lunacy.”

As Cheney succinctly put it in direct reply to a post showing Greene’s comments:

‘This is evil lunacy.’

See below for the remarks:

Cheney, of course, has also pushed back against former President Donald Trump himself, consistently rebuffing his lies about the integrity of the 2020 presidential election, which he has falsely claimed was somehow rigged for Joe Biden. Greene has supported Trump’s evidence-less assertions about the integrity of last year’s presidential election. Once, she even wore a mask emblazoned with the message “Trump Won,” which is obviously just not correct. Greene’s comparison of wearing masks to the Holocaust continues her streak of utter delusion. At this point, delusion seems to be one of Greene’s guiding lights.

In the past, Greene has also expressed support for executing prominent Democrats, although she displayed that support prior to her election to Congress. The House voted to remove Greene from her committee assignments after the surfacing of her support for killing Democrats, although she has tepidly distanced herself from her previous remarks. More recently, Greene has occupied herself with stunts like publicly yelling at Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.), who the Georgia Congresswoman falsely — and loudly — claimed is in support of “terrorists.” How would Greene describe the Capitol rioters whose lies she herself has supported if not “terrorists”? Greene helped provide the rhetorical cover for the riot with her propagation of Trump’s election lies.
