\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Donald Trump and Marjorie Taylor Greene are two peas in a MAGA pod who say some of the most offensive, outrageous, and baffling things you\u2019ve ever heard \u2013 so it\u2019s not always easy to keep track of which MAGA extremists said what. That\u2019s why today we\u2019re testing whether or not you can even tell if it\u2019s one far-right fanatic or the other based on some of their most deranged and out-of-touch statements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

#1: Who said Nikki Haley \u201cno longer counts\u201d as a Republican and said her supporters are \u201ccommunists\u201d who are \u201cbarred from the MAGA camp?\u201d <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAnybody that makes a \u2018Contribution\u2019 to [Haley], from this moment forth, will be permanently barred from the MAGA camp<\/a>. We don\u2019t want them, and will not accept them.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Haley supporters are “RINOs,” “never Trumpers,” and “communists.”<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI’m not sure we need too many<\/a> [Haley supporters].\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Haley \u201cnever had a place<\/a> [in the Republican Party].\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cNikki Haley no longer counts<\/a>\u201d as a Republican.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Answer: Both Trump and Greene<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

#2: Who disparaged the men and women in our military? <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201c[Joining the military is] like throwing your life away<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Atlantic<\/a>: \u201c\u2018Why should I go to that cemetery? It\u2019s filled with losers.\u2019 In a separate conversation on the same trip, [this MAGA extremist] referred to the more than 1,800 marines who lost their lives at Belleau Wood as \u2018suckers\u2019 for getting killed.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Answer: Both Trump and Greene<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

#3: Who thinks there is a conspiracy to force Americans to eat \u201cfake meat from Bill Gates\u201d \u201cthat grows in a peach tree dish?\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cSo you\u2019ll probably get a little zap inside your body and then say, \u2018No no, don\u2019t eat a real cheeseburger, you need to eat the fake, the fake burger, the fake meat from Bill Gates<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cYou have to accept the fact that the government totally wants to provide surveillance on every part of your life. They want to know when you\u2019re eating. They want to know if you\u2019re eating a cheeseburger, which is very bad because Bill Gates wants you to eat his fake meat that grows in a peach tree [sic] dish<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Answer: Marjorie Taylor Greene<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

#4: Who said the Civil War could be negotiated, people are flushing their toilets 15 times, and said a hurricane would be \u201ctremendously wet?\u201d <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe Civil War was so fascinating\u2026 it was just different. I just find it, I’m so attracted to seeing it. \u2026 There was something I think could have been negotiated<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI hate to say the three things. It’s the shower, it’s the sink, and you know the third element in the bathroom. But I don’t say it, because every time I say it, they only talk about that one\u2026 So I won’t talk about the fact that people have to flush their toilet 15 times<\/a>. I will not talk about it. I’ll only talk about showers.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis is going to be a storm that\u2019s going to be a very large one\u2026 It\u2019s tremendously big and tremendously wet<\/a>. Tremendous amounts of water.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Answer: Donald Trump<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

#5: Who spews bizarre conspiracy theories about climate change?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe Earth is more green than it was<\/a> years and years ago and that is because of the Earth warming.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cYou have a thing called weather, and you go up and you go down<\/a>. If you look into the 1920s they were talking about global freezing.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Answer: Both Trump and Greene<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

#6: Who talks about the \u201cgazpacho police\u201d and says lasers are causing wildfires?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Washington Post<\/a>: \u201c[This MAGA extremist] referenced \u2018Pelosi\u2019s gazpacho police spying on members of Congress, spying on the legislative work that we do, spying on our staff and spying on American citizens that want to come talk to their representatives.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThen oddly there are all these people who have said they saw what looks like lasers or blue beams of light causing the fires<\/a> \u2026 If they are beaming the sun\u2019s energy back to Earth, I\u2019m sure they wouldn\u2019t ever miss a transmitter receiving station right??!! I mean mistakes are never made when anything new is invented. What would that look like anyway? A laser beam or light beam coming down to Earth I guess. Could that cause a fire? Hmmm, I don\u2019t know. I hope not! That wouldn\u2019t look so good for PG&E, Rothschild Inc, Solaren or Jerry Brown who sure does seem fond of PG&E.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Answer: Marjorie Taylor Greene<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

#7: Who complains more about wind power than about Vladimir Putin? <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI would like to watch the president on television tonight. I don\u2019t think we will be able to. The wind is not blowing<\/a>. So crazy.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIf you have a windmill anywhere near your house, congratulations, your house just went down 75 percent in value. And they say the noise causes cancer<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cPlease God don\u2019t make me scrub clothes in a bucket<\/a> and have to hang them out on a line when we switch over to wind turbines and solar panels\u2026 I like the lights on. I wanna stay up later at night. I don\u2019t wanna have to go to bed when the sun sets. It\u2019s so silly!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
