From Firebrand to Veruca Salt: MTG’s Hissy Fit and the Blonde AOC’s Betrayal of MAGA
American Thinker ^ | Alex Ashe

Posted on 12/11/2025 3:40:37 AM PST by RoosterRedux

In the whimsical yet cautionary world of Roald Dahl’s Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Veruca Salt storms through Willy Wonka’s factory like a spoiled brat on steroids, demanding golden geese, trained squirrels, and every shiny trinket that catches her eye. “I want it now!” she screeches, her petulance sealing her fate down the garbage chute. Fast-forward to 2025 Washington, and one can’t help but see echoes of Veruca in Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene (MTG)—once the bleach-blonde firebrand of MAGA, now morphing into the “Blonde AOC,” trading principled conservatism for performative tantrums because President Trump didn’t hand her a Senate endorsement on a silver platter.

Greene’s descent began in earnest this fall, when her ambitions for higher office collided with cold political reality. Polling at a dismal 12% for a Georgia Senate or gubernatorial run, she beseeched Trump for his golden touch. But Trump, ever the pragmatist, saw the writing on the wall and urged her to stand down, withholding the endorsement that might have salvaged her quixotic quest. What followed wasn't quiet reflection or a pivot back to her House duties—no, it was a full-throated Veruca meltdown. Greene announced her resignation from Congress effective January 5, 2026, framing it as escape from a “battered wife” dynamic with the man she once called her unyielding champion. In interviews with the enemy—yes, 60 Minutes and CNN—she’s since spilled tea on Republican “ass-kissing” behind Trump's back, accused him of fueling death threats against her, and declared her worship of God over any mortal leader. It’s a spectacle as theatrical as AOC’s Instagram Lives, but with more Confederate flags and fewer Green New Deals. Conservatism demands loyalty to principles, not personal grudges—yet here we are, watching a supposed America First warrior prioritize her ego over the movement that elevated her.

There’s no wrath like a scold laughed at.

She is beyond a disappointment…

Ridiculous political sideshow clown.

Insider trading, not the prospect of a pension, is the way most of these people appear to compensate themselves.

To the tune of tens of millions of dollars within the span of, say, six or eight years.

It’s really turned into quite a racket.

Can’t wait for her last day to come. Just wondering how Brian Glenn, her boyfriend, is navigating through all of this with RAV and the White House.

I said the first time I saw her, MTG is the AOC of the GOP

Loud, stupid, attention hog

She’d ride any coattails necessary so people would notice her

I have donated to MTG’s campaign and it’s sad to see Marjorie self destruct, in real time.

Far too emotional. Which makes me wonder if ANY woman is qualified to be POTUS. They go through menopause and the chemical imbalance that produces such swings in personality. Just take a look at those three harridans in Michigan who have destroyed that state.

Code Pink Marge seems to be on the same meltdown path as CandAss Owens.

Flaming out at the same time.

Marge posing for pics with Medea Benjamin is the final gasp of any “career” she may have in mind. An obvious tool trying to squeeze out a few more pieces of silver.

What causes these people to flame out? Do you have a theory?

.

Sounds like Trump has released the Dobermans out on MTG. For instance, he used to have legitimate reasons for going after reporters imo, but now it's just a matter of reflex when anyone who dares question him on anything.

If Maggie Thatcher had been eligible for POTUS, I’d have voted for her in a heartbeat.

Unfortunately, there are many of these among Trump's political allies. Like moths flying around the brightest light.

At this time MAGA's top advocates too often lack gravitas.

She was way too obsessed with keeping Kevin McCarthy as Speaker of the House. She will be missed just as much as we all miss Kevin McCarthy.

She’s a fake because she doesn’t recognize how CNN absolutely loves her now. Instead of also calling out the MSM for their lies, she’s basking in their false admiration. So, she’s either always been a fraud, or just stupid.

It’s worthy of some research. I dont know the answer but among friends, business associates, my ex and several I’ve dated, the number that suddenly went bat crap crazy in their early 50s is definitely a statistical anomaly.

She did it in less than 5.

Women shouldn’t even be voting much less holding political office. The country lurched leftward ever since we made the mistake of letting them vote. It WILL one day be the ruin of the country.
