The Dream Ticket for the GOP

Well, nightmares are dreams, right?
Donald Trump and Marjorie Taylor Greene Running Together in 2024? Georgia Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene has come a long way since owning a CrossFit gym.
There’s nothing wrong with a fitness lifestyle and serving as a small business owner, but will this background prepare Greene for the rigors of a presidential campaign?
Two people close to her revealed that the Conservative spitfire wants to be former President Donald Trump’s running mate if he captures the Republican nomination in 2024.
Greene’s ambition and her support for Trump knows no bounds.
She is not afraid of taking extreme positions whether it is election denial or alleged support of the QAnon cult.
She has a safe seat in the House and may want to skip over the Senate or governorship and become the vice president as soon as possible, even though she has only served one term in Congress.
Conservative stalwart and podcast host Steve Bannon believes that this direct path is possible for Marjorie Taylor Greene. “This is no shrinking violet, she’s ambitious — she’s not shy about that, nor should she be,” said Bannon.
NBC News said it has another anonymous source who said Greene is striving for VP.
Former Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Democrat House members stripped Greene of committee assignments in 2021 for making incendiary statements in public and on social media. Greene simply replied that she didn’t care and would use her time to raise her national profile.
You could say she did become more of a household name, at least to those who follow politics closely.
She supported Kevin McCarthy for Speaker – forging an unlikely alliance with the GOP establishment.
As a result, Greene now has membership on the Homeland Security Committee, an appointment that detractors say is problematic because Greene has expressed doubt about the chain of events during the 9/11 terror attacks.
This has caused her opponents to derisively label the MAGA acolyte as a “9/11 Truther.” Greene already has plans to pursue impeachment against Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas for his leadership on the southern border and alleged refusal to enforce immigration laws.

I hadn't heard this particular allegation but apparently she questioned whether the Pentagon really got hit by a plane.
But that was way back in 2018.

Okay so there’s Dick Nixon and some guy in the middle who looks like Milton Berle - although I’m pretty sure Milty was a Demonocrat. Are you the character on the keys?

"Richard Nixon, left, sings at a birthday party given him by the Chowder and Marching Club when he was vice president. Former U.S. Rep. William H. Ayres stands behind Mr. Nixon."
I don't have that much on-top-of-the-head hair.
And I have facial hair.

I thought you might have shaved for that occasion.
Since 1970, there are two times I shaved my facial hair.
- For my interview to medical school. I kept it off for about 5 months.
- In 1986 when Mrs. George said, "I wonder what you'd look like if..." I kept it off for 11 years.
Either of those two events would have had more importance for me than a visit with (any) POTUS.
