MTG is pissed (Political)

Not to take away from the horror of more innocent people being killed in the middle east, but doesn't it seem this illegal war will hurt Trump's standing among MAGA?
Marjorie Taylor Greene on X:
“We said ‘No More Foreign Wars, No More Regime Change!’ We said it on rally stage after rally stage, speech after speech. Trump, Vance, basically the entire admin campaigned on it and promised to put America FIRST and Make America Great Again. My generation has been let down, abused, and used by our government our entire adult lives and our children’s generation is literally being abandoned.
“Thousands and thousands of Americans from my generation have been killed and injured in never ending pointless foreign wars and we said no more. But we are freeing the Iranian people. Please. There are 93 million people in Iran, let them liberate themselves. But Iran is on the verge of having nuclear weapons. Yeah sure.
“We have been spoon fed that line for decades and Trump told us all that his bombing this past summer completely wiped it all out. It’s always a lie and it’s always America Last. But it feels like the worst betrayal this time because it comes from the very man and the admin who we all believed was different and said no more. We thought the victory won in 2024 would be finally time to put America First.
“And we thought that meant the common American man and woman and their children. Not the elites. America has suffered and they don’t even care. Hundreds of thousands of American small business owners lost their hard earned businesses during tyrannical covid lockdowns, that by the way, started under Trump with 15 days to slow the spread and continued under Biden and Democrats. There is no difference between them.
“Vaccine injuries, deaths, delays and loss in our tax payer funded education, record high suicides, record high Big Pharma profits and ZERO accountability for anyone from the MAGA America First administration as they run off to start wars and the board of peace at the same time. Create the crisis and the solution simultaneously and then build condos to profit. MAGA!
“For years we demanded to release the Epstein files, demanding transparency and justice for thousands of victims, women and children, by the richest most powerful men in the world and we had to fight Trump himself to do it, even after we all campaigned on it. And not a single person has been arrested and likely won’t be, no accountability, no justice.
“Instead, we get a war with Iran on behalf of Israel that will succeed in regime in Iran. Another foreign war for foreign people for foreign regime change. For what? Does it lower our inflation that our government caused? Caused by BOTH Democrats AND Republicans with their decades of corrupt government spending that has enslaved us all in nearly $40 Trillion in debt and reduced the value of our dollar to nothing. No, war with Iran does not lower inflation and make cost of living affordable.
“Does war with Iran fix our healthcare system and make health insurance affordable for Americans?? No war with Iran does not do that and the MAGA admin and Republicans aren’t even working on it in any serious way at all. Does war with Iran stop AI from replacing your job? Nope.
“Does war with Iran help you to be able to afford to buy a home? No, but you’ll see TikTok videos of nice penthouses when Gaza is rebuilt. Does war with Iran help the mental health crisis in America or help the drug addiction pandemic in America? Nope.
“Does war with Iran do anything to help American families stay together and survive? No, not at all. But within hours of war with Iran it was reported approximately 40 innocent girls, school children, in Iran were killed by bombs from Israel. And they don’t care, they killed thousands of innocent children in Gaza, and apparently our Pro-Peace administration doesn’t care either.
“And, since they won’t solve America’s problems clearly they don’t care about our kids either. Now, America is going to be force fed and gas lighted all the “noble” reasons the American “Peace” President and Pro-Peace administration had to go to war once again this year, after being in power for only a year. Head-spinning, but maga.” – Former Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene.

Whether you like or dislike Trump, this dreadful Iranian clerical regime needs to be wiped from the earth.
Long overdue, I wish the USA every success in their war against the Iranian terrorist regime. You can't negotiate with these people, be it Hamas, Hezbollah, or Khamenei himself -

How damned many times have we tried that route at great human and monetary cost? Usually based on lies. This action is no different.
If the US is going to continue to meddle where we don't belong, let's do it the right and legal way: Congressional debate and approval or unapproval. Seeing how 90% of Americans are opposed to Trump's illegal acts, I would say an alternative to war must be pursued. We are very choosy in deciding where to attempt regime change. This war will be a disaster if not stopped.

Major General (Ret.) Paul D. Eaton, an Army commander during Operation Iraqi Freedom, and senior adviser to VoteVets PAC, said in a statement:
Men who know more about war than Donald Trump ever will warned him repeatedly about the risks to American lives by starting a war with Iran. Indeed, Trump himself predicted casualties in his speech to America. The Constitution could not be more clear. When launching wars of choice, especially with American lives in the balance, the president goes to Congress and Congress authorizes it. That did not happen, and these operations are blatantly unconstitutional.
More to the point, these operations seem to have no focus. Trump says they’re to keep Iran from getting a nuclear weapon, but just last year he said we ‘obliterated’ that program. It seems to be targeting missile sites, but Trump says it is to stoke regime change. A war without focus is a war with no tangible goals. And a war with no goals ends up a Forever War.

Preach, MTG!
Andy, if you think so then maybe Britain should do it without us.
Everything MTG said is true and correct. My country is being turned into a 3rd World country at the expense of American lives and treasure in these endless regime change wars on behalf of Israel.
This Iran war on behalf of Israel is as completely false and illegitimate as the Iraq War was on behalf of Israel with both being based fear mongering lies.
The only imminent existential danger to all of us is nuclear war based on Israel's "secret," nuclear program, that isn't inspected by the relevant international organization, unlike Iraq's, and Israel's stated policy code named, "Samson," a plan to use their nuclear weapons to kill anyone and everyone they decide to obliterate if the government of Israel decides it no longer has a viable future.
Israel is not a, "democracy." It is an apartied state. It is committing genocide. My country should cut it loose financially and militarily, and make make AIPAC register as a foreign agent, because it is a foreign agent.
Israel is a supremacist theocratic state, and, again, commiting The Palestinian Genocide, a term now officially coined by the U.N.
I wanted nothing to do with the Iraq war and I feel the same way now.

Unfortunately, MTG lost all credibility years ago.

Well the Iranian ambassador to the UN brought a wry grin when he said the US and Israel bombs had killed a hundred people of his people, forgetting that he and his mates had killed 30,000 in the last month.
Personally if I see a bloke with a big stick beating up a woman saying you must stay at home and wear a niqab, beating on a man saying his homosexuality is a sin & mental disease; and I have a gun, then I'll say stop. When man with stick continues, argues, threatening to kill me, I'll use my gun to shoot him in the leg. He continues despite argument and warnings then I'll shoot his other leg. He continues, I'll aim higher.
I don't care what nationality any of them are.
We live on one tiny planet and ought to help.
But it is our nature to be self-serving, tribal, nationalistic. -
I won't litigate this as such.
I was against my country waging a war of aggression on Iran when I heard first heard of the planning of this dark reality we fine ourselves in now decades ago when the Neocons made no secret of any aspect of their plans to wage a war of aggression on Iran, and I am against it now.
In particular, Iran doesn't have nuclear weapons, but it has excellent guided missiles, and its military capabilities are vastly underrated.
The battle ground is a small land mass compared to places like the U.S., Canada, Russia, China, Austria, Etc.
It will be very destructive, very quickly, and many expert analysts have talked about what they believe would be an increase for the probability of global nuclear war.
Iran is not an existential threat to the U.S. The U.S. won't but should back away from this illegal war.
