Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene blasted the "SHAM trial" on X. "You don't see this level of corruption in a banana republic", she wrote, directing people to a Trump fundraiser.

I don't know I've seen such a direct example of, " I'm saying this so that you will give us money", as this in a while.

Why are people so happy to be part of a scam? What do they expect their money will do? Is it a metric republicans use to compare to each other? 🤷

I don't get it, like, I get why people support him, they live in a weird media bubble, but that same media bubble insists he's a fantastically successful businessman, why donate to a billionaire even if you do support his cause?

They live in a paradoxical mindset. He’s a fantastically successful businessman who also was attacked and lost revenue because Democrats are somehow boycotting his brands or smearing him. So therefore you have to save him or the Democrats will oppress you next and ban your religion.

Like many cults it only works if you are in their bubble.

How do you even boycott him? Like nobody I know has ever bought anything Trump sells not because they're boycotting him but just because what does he even sell?

To be unhappy in a scam you have to first recognize that a scam is taking place. Before that, you're just unhappy and trying to find a reason or justification for it. The most likely people to be scammed? The less educated and the desperate.

“You don’t see this level of corruption in a banana republic”

Sure you do. That's why he's on trial. Big orange banana.

So you are saying he's on trial because us is corrupted? So you are supporting this piece of shit?

If she knew what "banana republic" meant, she'd know how stupid she sounds.

She's basically a parrot that got voted into Congress.
