GOP House leaders pile on Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene: She invoked no more wrongful use of the Holocaust as a metaphor for forced vaccination than anyone charging former President Trump with stating a "Big Lie."

Georgia congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene doesn't like the idea of vaccine passports, and she tweeted about it:

Vaccinated employees get a vaccination logo just like the Nazi's forced Jewish people to wear a gold star. Vaccine passports & mask mandates create discrimination against unvaxxed people who trust their immune systems to a virus that is 99% survivable.

Note that she invoked no more wrongful use of the Holocaust as a metaphor than anyone charging former President Trump with stating a "Big Lie."  But there has been a fierce pile-on against her.  Consider this report from Business Insider on Taylor Greene's defense of her Covid-19 comments:

Greene subsequently lashed out at critics, saying she was referring not to "the Holocaust" but rather "only the discrimination against Jews in early Nazi years."

Note the shrill hyperbole in the report from Business Insider — "Greene subsequently lashed out at critics[.]"  Wouldn't "Greene subsequently explained to critics" have sufficed?

She never mentioned the showers or ovens while Omar denies it even happened.

They sure hate it when someone comes in and acts on behalf of the people instead of themselves like so many of them do on Crapitol Hill. She’s a threat to Republicans AND Demonrats! Go MTG!!!

Business Insider is misnamed. They are not inside any business and they don’t concern themselves with honest business, commerce, capitalism or entrepreneurship. They just grabbed a name for a website and use it to spew commie propaganda.

“Note that she invoked no more wrongful use of the Holocaust as a metaphor than anyone charging former President Trump with stating a “Big Lie.”

I agree.

She’s as stupid as any Democrat.

Greene’s metaphor is a bit wrong... if UNvaccinated were made to wear a covid insignia, then it would be as the Nazis made the juden wear a gold star...

barring that one mistake, everyone else’s argument is hyperbole.

"GOP House leaders"

Scum like these used to be rightly identified as fellow travelers...

A more refined description would be: "Butt-licking toadies..."

“ She’s as stupid as any Democrat.”

Comments like these, and the people who make them are why the GOP always caves. Why don’t you get on our side for a change?

[Vehmgericht]

This was a perfect opportunity for the RINOs to join the democrats and attack a real Republican. Did she ever use the word Holocaust?

And she apologized for it today. Seems that even MTG understands more than people in this site-that what she said is reprehensible. Most of you should be ashamed.
