Marjorie Taylor Greene Demands McConnell Resign After Latest Freeze Up

Marjorie Taylor Greene is joining in the growing chorus of voices demanding that Mitch McConnell step down from office after his latest health episode this week where he once again froze up during a Q&A with reporters. But Greene took it a step further, and mentioned a handful of Democrats that also are "not fit for office." Greene needs to be careful about throwing that label around, because it also applies to her. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins discusses this.

So, as everybody knows at this point, uh, Mitch McConnell suffered another episode this week where he was asked a question by reporters and completely froze, unable to move, unable to speak, similar to what happened about a month ago. So this is now the second time publicly that Mitch McConnell has had one of these total freeze up moments, and his staff has had to usher him away. Now, on Thursday, 'cause this happened Wednesday, on Thursday, the Capitol doctor came out and said, no McConnell's, totally fine. No problems here. Really. No, no, you didn't, you didn't, uh, detect any problems with Mitch McConnell. So, so it's totally normal capital doctor for a human. B, just like that. Like that's normal. According to this capital doctor, I would probably seek a second opinion, Mitch. But if you want a second opinion, I would advise you do not go to Marjorie Taylor Green because she is absolutely gunning for you to get the hell out of the Senate.

Marjorie Taylor Greene has become one of the more outspoken Republicans in terms of calling for Mitch McConnell to get the hell out of office. After this most recent episode she took to social media on X, formerly known as Twitter, and said this, severe aging health issues and or mental health incompetence in our nation's leaders must be addressed. Biden, McConnell, Feinstein and Fetterman are examples of people who are not fit for office, and it's time to be serious about it. These politicians, staff and family members should be ashamed of themselves by enabling and allowing their loved ones to remain in office all to hold power.

What you've said about John Fetterman is absolutely disgusting. Fetterman had a stroke and he suffered from depression, neither of which has inhibited in any way his mental capacity. So that is a disgusting thing to add him to that group. Biden, he's slowed down a lot for sure. There's no question about that. His age has caught up to him, but is he mentally incompetent? I don't think so. Now, Feinstein, McConnell, you're not gonna get any argument from me there. It's pretty obvious that these two don't know what the hell's going on. Feinstein is obviously even worse than McConnell, but right now the issue is not Biden, the issue is not federman. The issue is Mitch McConnell because after that first incident where he froze up a month ago, reports started coming in of, oops, we forgot to report that he has taken several major falls this year. He is having problems with his body. I don't know if it extends to his, his mental capacity, but his body is failing him. Like there is no doubt about that.

And it's ironic, of course, that he was asked about running again for reelection in 2026 when his body just shut down on him. I think that is a good enough answer. But Marjorie Taylor Green needs to be a little bit more careful about throwing these allegations around. Like, these people are mentally incompetent. I I don't think you're a good judge of that, Marjorie. I mean, listen, yeah, there's something wrong with Feinstein. Her age has gotten up with her. Same thing with McConnell, but you didn't just throw in the aging issue. You threw in just mentally incompetent.

Marjorie, take your advice & resign immediately.

[shawnmckenzie]

Americans ought to demand that MTG resign.

[RebeccaLake-ej]

MTG needs to resign. She hasn't done anything for her district nor the nation. Put her out to pasture.

[celticgypsy]

She has some nerve talking about "people not qualified to serve in Congress." Seriously?

[robertschulze]

She should add herself to the list of people unfit to hold office.

[boholde]

I’d rather Marjorie resign for being America’s biggest Karen.

[TraciEaston-hsxe]

McConnell SHOULD step down. MTG should be taken off EVERY one of her commitees!! FIRED!

[sandynauman]

It sounds to me like she's writing a letter about herself. Get out, Marjorie Taylor Green, the country will be a better place without you.

[valeriewatkins]

I demand that MTG resigns! What's her excuse? She has a damn nerve 😡

[cookieshivers]

She should resign because the GOP is too spineless to do it for cause

[Master_Petes_Theater]

Marj suffers from mental incapacity, so if Mitch is forced to resign, she should do so as well.

[jim]

MTG calling out other Republicans for incompetence and being unfit for office is exactly what everyone thinks of her. Hilarious.

[jayannakelley]

I agree with you Farron! Madge has shown her mental incompetency over & over. And been proud of it..sheesh!

[tomcurtis]

The utter disrespect that she shows says it all about the current GOP! She has nerve talking about mental health issues when she's a mental case herself!

[thewhitewolf]

She’s a hypocrite. Mental incompetence? She should look in the mirror.

[NoArmadillo]

MTG is worried about politicians who are "mentally incompetent"???? She needs to look in the mirror!!!

[russshaber]

Anybody who can't answer "Who won the 2020 Presidential election?" correctly, should be disqualified from holding public office.

[hushpuckena]

Credit where it is due: Greene knows all about 'not being qualified for Congress'.

[TheScandoman]

If we required members of Congress to resign because of incoherent responses to questions, or questionable mental health, MTG would have been long gone!

[downfall]

The fact MTG can't see the irony of her calling out ANYONE for mental incompetence is, not at all surprising anymore.
