The reasons Herschel Walker lost the Georgia Senate race are many, and most have to do with the man himself. Not campaigning with Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor at his side is definitely not first—or even listed—among them. And yet, that hasn’t stopped the QAnon clown from Georgia’s 14th District from babbling Wednesday about how Walker’s campaign team never asked her to the dance.

In an interview on Steve Bannon’s The War Room podcast, Greene slammed Walker’s campaign consultants and the Senate GOP, calling them “arrogant” and adding that she was “extremely insulted” about not being asked to campaign with Walker.

"This is for Mitch McConnell and Lindsey Graham and the rest of the Republican senators; you guys are the reasons why we are losing Republican races all over the country," Greene declared. "And this is your third loss in my home state. So, let me inform you on behalf of Georgia: this is your third strike, and you're out!"

Campaign Action

Greene went on to list all the ways she was ignored by Walker’s people, and indicted those who worked on his campaign. Oh, so now it’s clear. It’s not that the former NFL star was ill-prepared and incompetent, or that he couldn’t tell the truth if his life depended on it, or that he was endorsed by former President Donald Trump—a man whose own political career is on life-support at the moment. No, it’s all about this do-nothing Congresswoman who talks a lot of shit but has been ousted from every committee since being elected.

Greene ranted about being “extremely angry today” while desperately trying to claim that Georgia wasn’t “blue or purple, but red.” She added, “We just need the right candidates, the right campaigns, and the right support,” and went on to blame Senate Republicans again.

"The audacity and really frank rudeness of the campaign consultants and Mitch McConnell and Lindsey Graham where they thought, you know, ‘we're going to keep Marjorie Taylor Greene away from Herschel Walker, and we don't need her voice at his campaign rallies and events where we're campaigning all over the state,’ I think is really a major mistake and an insult to me and insult to people who support me and Republicans all over Georgia."

What Greene didn’t say is how her beloved Trump is viewed in Georgia, or how anything he touches fails.

“This isn’t President Trump’s fault at all,” Greene said, blaming McConnell and Graham and Walker’s campaign team for not showing up for Bikers for Trump.

In case you’re not familiar, Bikers for Trump was founded by chainsaw artist Chris Cox. It’s a 30,000-member vigilante organization that patrolled Trump events throughout his 2016 campaign and while he served in office.
