        AOC Gives GOP A Blunt Reminder After They Promise Not To Make Cuts To Medicaid
    
        Trump Called Out Using His Own Past Tweet After He Tried To Blame The Economy On Biden
    
The message from the Republican party regarding the 2020 Presidential Election is a little divided. Some have accepted the outcome and are trying to build a winning message by pointing the finger at President Joe Biden for the country's woes.
However, others continue spreading the Big Lie, falsely claiming there is mass voter fraud and the results of the 2020 election are up for debate. 
This includes Republican Representative of Georgia and QAnon conspiracy theorist, Marjorie Taylor Greene.
This wouldn't be too surprising except she's now trying to backpedal after a recent poll showed why that might not be the best strategy.
Turns out the Big Lie has big consequences for the GOP.

I recently conducted a poll on Georgia\u2019s elections and if my constituents felt their votes would count during a teletown hall.\n\nSadly, 4% said they won\u2019t even vote due to voter fraud.\n\nThis is WRONG.\n\nLegal votes by Rs are just as important as stopping illegal ones.\n\nCont\u2019d

If we don\u2019t vote, the Democrats win by default.\n\nIt\u2019s time to audit the 2020 election, prosecute the fraud, end mass mail-in ballots, and FLOOD THE POLLS in 2022.

Greene is known for previous support of the Qanon conspiracy theory that claims former President Donald Trump is secretly working to bring down the cabal of an evil world government. 
Certain details change, and other conspiracies are folded in, but the disproven idea Trump actually won the last presidential election factors heavily into it.
However, the idea the elections were rigged is causing some right-wing voters to become disillusioned with the election process.
In her own polling, Greene found 4% of her constituents said they wouldn't vote because of the misinformation she helped spread about election fraud.
Why she's surprised by this turn of events, we're not really sure.

Greene has repeatedly indicated support for several different conspiracy theories, including the idea people who've survived mass shootings are just "crisis actors" and Democrats magically control the country. 
Her claims the 2020 election was "stolen" in any way already runs counter to the fact she was elected in 2020. One would think if some secret government rulers could steal the election from Donald Trump, they could take a single seat in government away from a particularly annoying junior politician. 
That said, all the analysis and audits have concluded there was no massive voter fraud and vote-by-mail is a very secure method of voting.
If MTG wants to keep claiming fraud, she'll have to prove it.

Dear Dumbass,\n#1 - no 2020 voter fraud exists.\n#2 - mass mail-in voting does NOT lead to voter fraud.\n#3 - there\u2019s more of us than there are of you and we WILL overcome Rethuglican voter suppression.\n#BLUEWAVE2022https://twitter.com/mtgreenee/status/1450155043806760962\u00a0\u2026

The rhetoric pushed by Greene and others like her has proven very effective in a particular subset of voters. The commands from Trump, and other conspiracy theorists have many supporters pushing to stay home during the next election.
If Greene wants this to stop, she might need to change her tune about how safe and effective voting is.

While she doesn't have any committee assignments in the House of Representatives right now, Greene has been a thorn in the side of the political landscape. 
She was accused recently of calling for a civil war by asking in a Twitter poll if the country should "divorce" itself.
