Exclusive — Marjorie Taylor Greene: 1st Republican Debate ‘For the Donors and Consultants’
Breitbart ^ | 22 Aug 2023 | JOEL B. POLLAK

MILWAUKEE, Wisconsin — Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) told Breitbart News on Tuesday that the Donald Trump-less Republican primary debate on Wednesday is “for the donors and for the campaign consultants, so they can continue making money.”

Greene spoke with Breitbart News in downtown Milwaukee just over 24 hours before the candidates took the stage at the Fiserv Forum for the first debate of the 2024 Republican presidential primary — with former President Trump declining to attend.

Greene, who is also a surrogate for the Trump campaign, argued that given Trump’s wide lead in the polls of likely primary voters, the race for the Republican nomination was all but over, even if Trump would be the center of conversation Wednesday evening.

Trump currently dominates the rest of the Republican field in the primary race, and some polls also show him leading incumbent President Joe Biden, despite lingering concerns about his electability, given his penchant for provocative and divisive rhetoric.

In Trump’s absence, the debate risks becoming a dud — at best, an audition for Trump’s vice president, or his replacement. The Republican National Committee and the host, Fox News, hope that the debate will highlight alternative leaders and policies.

On Thursday, the day after the debate, Trump plans to surrender to authorities in Fulton County, Georgia, where he and 18 other co-defendants face a variety of charges in a rambling indictment focusing on his efforts to challenge the 2020 election results.

Asked what question she would ask the debate participants, if she could, Green did not hesitate: “When are you dropping out?”

Its also for Political Junkies like me—watch as Fox goes all in to try to prop up one of these clowns as “The Next Trump.” Without the meanness of The Donald (nor his ethics). Lets see Christie commit Hari Kari on Stage! Watch as Swamiman try to look like he might win, See Haliee Blathers about being a woman who really knows what she’s doing. The phrase to watch is “Yes but...” “Trump was a good president yes, but he really screwed up the _________” (Fill in the blank). Pop the popcorn, chill the beer—this will be one for the history books.
