Tucker Carlson wonders how Laura Loomer got a Pentagon gig, and MTG has a savage answer

The Republican party continues to divide, and it doesn’t seem like it’s going to be stopping or slowing down any time soon. If anything, the animosity between MAGA Republicans and regular Republicans seem to herald the collapse of something soon.

On the Tucker Carlson show last week, Carlson asked, “ How does Laura Loomer get to be a Pentagon advisor?” Marjorie Taylor Greene, his guest for the show, replied, “I don’t know…this is a woman that can’t even legally buy a gun because she had such serious mental problems.”

I reluctantly have to agree: How did she get to be a Pentagon advisor? Nothing in her resume looks like even a remote fit. However, given how the rest of the government staffing has gone under President Donald Trump’s recent term, it isn’t much of a surprise.

What is a surprise is how quickly these party members have been to turn on each other. If they didn’t control our government it would almost be impressive.

We also cannot ignore Greene’s comment. No, we are not endorsing her–or it–because we agree. A broken clock is right twice a day and all that. But do you understand how much you’ve had to do to get somebody like Greene to say something like this about you publicly, without being a Democrat?
