Marjorie Taylor Greene’s crude ‘kiss my ass’ message to David Cameron achieved the impossible – making people take his side
We’re all still quietly trying to get our heads around the presence of David – now Lord – Cameron in the Cabinet.
A lot of people are wondering how a Government made up of politicians who railed against ‘unelected EU bureaucrats’ thought it was fitting to give a man a peerage just so they could make him Foreign Secretary.
However, Cameron seems to have done a great impression of a stopped clock with an unequivocal appeal to US politicians when it comes to providing support for Ukraine.
David Cameron pops up in The Hill on US funding for Ukraine … "I am going to drop all diplomatic niceties. I urge Congress to pass it."
"I do not want us to show the weakness displayed against Hitler in the 1930s."https://t.co/rNro5TCd5K

His comments have been met with raised eyebrows and a certain amount of grudging admiration.
Cameron is, not that quietly, turning out to be a very decent foreign secretary. https://t.co/9Td7j67UP0

The US answer to Nadine Dorries (but with guns – perish the thought), Marjorie Taylor Greene, has shown exactly why she’s such a loss to America’s international diplomacy team with this response.

Marjorie Taylor Greene: I think that’s rude name-calling and I don’t appreciate that type of language.
Also Marjorie Taylor Greene: Frankly, he can kiss my ass.
Farrukh provided one of his excellent juxtapositions.

Many people agreed that the Republican Representative for Georgia’s 14th District had simply lived down to her reputation.

Completely unsurprising that MTG says the UK foreign secretary can kiss her ass. As much as I think she's disgusting, my mind goes directly to the people who elected her. What the hell kind of people vote for a piece of crap like this? NW Georgia must be a real shithole. https://t.co/BG4uA2Jzh3

But there was another problem. Her attack made people *gulps* side with David Cameron.

I know I am saying this as a Labour Party activist, but compared to Marjorie Taylor Greene, Lord Cameron has far more integrity and decency as a politician than she will ever likely to have https://t.co/vzUZZq1c6P

I almost feel protective towards Cameron after watching this. Trouble is for Sunak, many big names in his party would agree with her and he can’t slap them down. https://t.co/tIoDKpHcx1
