Marjorie Taylor Greene's Attack On Secret Service Director Backfires Badly

It might seem weird to say something that a lot of people agree with and still get blasted with social media snark, but that’s 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, Greene’s particular demand became the subject of many snarky remarks ― all because of her choice of words on social media.

“I’ve never seen a more incompetent woman in my life,” the lawmaker wrote, before launching into a full-on conspiracy theory .

Given Greene’s notoriety for spreading other conspiracy theories , starting fights in Oversight Committee hearings and botching basic facts , perhaps it’s no surprise that many people keyed in on her use of the word “incompetent.”
