MTG has successfully created her image in the spirit of her beloved cult leader, ex-former-wannabe-pResident Trump, (born into money, credited herself for it, boundless sense of entitlement, general arrogance and universal disrespect, even public crotch-grabbing

.) Her surrogate tRumping has made her the darling of the Implosion Party and its why she got their backing last week despite her unconscionable behavior and aggressive public displays. If they cant have The Don, then it appears that theyll settle for The Dawn. For now.
But in a show of amazing restraint, President Biden refuses to comment on her, even mention her name. He has taken the approach of ignoring her demonstrative bluster while he quietly and impressively takes down everything tRump held dear and holds up everything voters have been begging for. He is throwing haymakers and flat-out getting things done. All the while, Rs scream amongst themselves and get absolutely nothing for their constituents. While the Quack-anon Queen spouts about gun rights in the Capital, bullshits her way around her despicable social media posts and flips off anyone who disagrees with her, nothing changes. Nothing, that is, that Joe Biden didnt change.
In the 2 years it will take for Rs to have a chance to be relevant again (and they are already screwing that up), passion without performance will be wearing thin on the whole base, even the RWWJs. Lawsuits, law enforcement and social media companies are silencing RW conspiracies, and there is no fascist leader to give cover to violent extremists. After the Impeachment trial, tRump and his tRumpettes will have very little relevance. Itll be about COVID and the economy like it should always have been. MTG, Gaetz, Boebert and the Radical Right will be seen as the obnoxious voices of a powerless, pathetic party with no platform for struggling voters. Time is running out on their hissy fits.

MTG is a vulgar, gun-toting barfly. Biden is smart to simply ignore her. We would all do well to follow the President's example.
