    MTG is smarter than we’ve been giving her credit for.

    She bailed out of Congress just after her pension kicked in, and before the midterms.

    She’ll be a talking head/pundit, sitting on the sidelines as the GOP goes down in flames, and then run in 2028 as the MAGats new hero.

      It just got too toxic when she turned on Trump. Pension was coincidence that it was only a couple months away so announce to take the heat off and stick around doing nothing.

        Other people already pointed out that she never received a credible threat from Antifa or the LGBTQ+ community. The second she made a move against Trump she saw her life was in danger.

      It’s basic math. So, yeah she is able to do basic times tables and that’s way more than I thought she could do
