Marjorie Taylor Greene‘s support for controversial figures has caused many to question her authority and judgment. And evidently, the saga continues.
The United States representative took to her congressional Twitter page on April 22 to demand her followers to become more like the My Pillow CEO and political activist Mike Lindell. In the past, Lindell, who is also a Donald Trump supporter, made headlines after being sued for defamation by Old Dominion’s former employee Eric Coomer for his media platform Frankspeech’s coverage of Trump’s 2020 false voter fraud accusations against the company.
In addition to the lawsuit, according to Rolling Stone, the 61-year-old had previously claimed in August 2021 that he had evidence that China also interfered with the 2020 presidential election and would pay anyone $5 million if they disproved it as part of his “Prove Mike Wrong Challenge.” When Robert Zeidman gathered evidence and indeed proved Lindell “wrong,” Lindell refused to cough up the millions he promised. A few years later, Zeidman would file a lawsuit against Lindell to collect his debt, and recently justice would prevail in his favor when he was awarded $5 million.
As the news circulated online, Lindell, who attempted to have a brave face, shared on his Twitter account a meme regarding his latest legal woes. Shortly following Lindell’s post, Greene retweeted the upload and suggested that her followers become fighters like the father of four. As Greene’s tweet went viral, many criticized the 48-year-old for her outlandish remarks.
One individual expressed that if Lindell is considered a “fighter” to Greene, it’s understandable why the representative doesn’t know what the word “patriot” means.
At the same time, another Twitter disclosed that Greene’s tweet showcased that “liars always lose.”
Another mentioned that this is the dumbest thing they have ever seen Greene post, which says a lot given the things she likes to talk about on Twitter.
A social media user went as far as to fix Greene’s tweet and claimed that the representative meant to write that she and her party needed “more criminals” like Lindell.
As far as justice goes, MTG’s “fighter” has called the decision “terribly wrong” and though he expected to pay Zeidman within 30 days, he has warned that he will be “going to court” to appeal against it.
