Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene Tries to Laugh Off Gazpacho Gestapo Mix-Up
Seattle Times ^ | Feb. 10, 2022

Posted on 02/10/2022 1:33:54 PM PST by nickcarraway

The right-wing firebrand laughed off comments made during an interview with One American Network (OAN) complaining House Speaker Pelosi was secretly investigating members of Congress and constituents.

“Not only do we have the D.C. jail, which is the D.C. gulag,” said Rep. Greene in a now-viral video. “Now we have Nancy Pelosi’s gazpacho police spying on members of Congress, spying on the legislative work that we do, spying on our staff and spying on American citizens that want to come to talk with their representatives.”

After being roundly mocked for confusing the Gestapo, the official secret police of Nazi Germany and in German-occupied Europe with gazpacho, a cold tomato soup often served with cucumbers and cilantro, Greene surfaced on social media on Thursday morning.

No. She was on OANN when she said it.

Oh. Well, once I referred to Marfan's Syndrome as Marzipan Syndrome. These things happen. Laugh at yourself and move on.

I’m disappointed that people on here are taking the Times’ bait.

Yep, it’s sickening how the RINOs, who pretend to be Warriors of the Right, will jump at the opportunity to demean any true Conservative. The Turtle is a perfect example, and he and is ilk are why the GOP is rightly referred to as “The Stupid Party”!

I'm about the last person to criticize verbal gaffs myself. But Taylor Greene has chosen to put herself out there. She is confrontational by choice. Her opponents are going to take every chance they can get to ridicule and diminish her, and she keeps giving them the ammunition.

It would just be nice to see Republicans who are educated and strategic again.

that may be true; but somehow I doubt you’d say that if AOC said the same thing...
..................................................
Ah, but there’s a difference. AOC is an anti-American Communist apparatchik who should be attacked (verbally) at every opportunity until she’s GONE. MTG, on the other hand, is a true American patriot who should have the full support of every Freeper!

That’s my problem with her, she talks a lot, but does she actually get anything done. A lot of conservatives these days love loud and flashy talking, but apparently they don’t care if anything gets done.

Tell me what this woman has actually accomplished for conservatives, not Democrats. AOC mostly just riles up conservatives. But MTG is like that - she rules up Democrats. But no one can tell me what she’s actually accomplished. To me, being clickbait for Democrats is not an accomplishment.

Heart is plenty in her position.. "Heads" can be bought cheaply.
