Don't fall in love with politicians.

Now, I say that, but I'm also a die-hard President Trump supporter who would be willing to support a third term, and maybe a fourth. That doesn't mean Trump hasn't disappointed me. He and his administration bungled the Epstein story, which became one they couldn't sweep under the rug. I'm also not happy he sided with the gun control lobby on banning bump stocks. The point is, at some point, these folks will disappoint you. And my, how the mighty have fallen when it comes to Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (GA-14).

What the hell happened? I feel like the pod people from Invasion of the Body Snatchers got her. She was wild, fun, and unapologetically anti-Democratic Party. She hurled hand grenades and threw firebombs daily at the woke Left. Now, she seems to be laying the groundwork for a party switch. She's apologized for being conservative and attacking the progressive agenda.

She's been a thorn in the side of the Trump White House on the Epstein Files and whipped out a flamethrower on the GOP leadership during the Schumer Shutdown that Democrats caused. Majorie, I guess, supported Democrats' push for $1.5 trillion in additional spending for illegal alien healthcare benefits and NPR funding.

The Georgia Republican has gone on The View to expound more—it's a mess. President Trump called her a traitor and rescinded his endorsement of her reelection bid, a remarkable feat. Do you know how badly you need to screw up to have that happen to you?

Greene's not the first or the last Republican to transform into "anti" versions of themselves. It's sad; I like the crazies for lack of a better term. They're fun to cover, and we need attack dogs, like MTG used to be. Is this fallout all because Trump's team told her not to run for the U.S. Senate in Georgia? That seems to be the rumor on the street, where the president's political crew noted that MTG would get clobbered by Democratic incumbent Jon Ossoff.

Whatever the case, it was fun while it lasted, MTG. Your duels with Democratic Rep. Jasmine Crockett (TX-30) were epic, but now we've got to turn our back on you.
