Former Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) has the SW MAGA crowd figured out to a T.
MTG told Dasha Burns, Politico's White House Bureau Chief and Host of "The Conversation":
"President Trump still has significant support, according to polls and anyone that identifies themselves as MAGA very much supports President Trump. However, the reality of what’s happened in that base is it’s very fractured.
"There’s the “America First” lane of the Republican Party. There’s the Republican voter that calls themselves MAGA. Then there’s your traditional Republican voters. Then you’ve got more moderate voters.
"The most interesting conversation to have is it’s a generational divide. The people 50, 55, and up that watch Fox News literally all day on their television, like a lot of elder people I know, I would say they are receiving propaganda news that they’re watching all day long. They’re being fed news that is framed and stories that reference only this rosy view of what President Trump is doing and the White House and MAGA. I think they’re being misled because if you watch all angles of news and if you watch international news, if you follow stories on the internet and you’re pretty smart and try to figure out OK, that’s fake, OK, this story’s real, you get a completely different viewpoint than the people that watch Fox News all day."
