Michael Steele: Regardless of What You Think About MTG, ‘She Is Consistent in That America First Mindset’

EXCERPT:

STEELE: “Yeah, I think it’s fascinating to listen to Marjorie and to watch her moves right now, because the one thing I’ve said from the very beginning of this rift is that regardless of how you feel about Marjorie Taylor Greene or what you think about her antics in the past, etcetera, she is consistent in that America First mindset. It is what drew her into MAGA. MAGA became a framing for this idea of making America primary, making America the key focus on policy, on culture, on those things that matter to Americans like her. So yes, she was MAGA. I mean, she wants to dance around that now. But she embraced that framing because it helped her frame up this idea. And it reminded me a lot of the early, or even the, more importantly, the late stages of the, you know, the idea of the late 2010, 2011 cycle where you had a lot of Americans who spoke in these terms about the country, about the Constitution.”
