A state that comes that shut in two consecutive elections implies that anybody outdoors the mainstream of both social gathering may face hassle with a statewide citizens.
And Greene is the definition of outdoor the mainstream.

He has more energy than everyone around him especially the nasty fake news that ask him the most America LAST pathetic questions. It’s just so great to have a POTUS that is more than capable of making America GREAT again!!! Praise God for answering our prayers!!!”
Throughout her interview with The Atlanta Journal-Structure, Greene heaped much more reward on Trump, lauding his government orders on immigration and banning transgender ladies from sports activities.

“I do support Israel and support peace in the Middle East,” Greene as soon as mentioned.
Her unhinged conduct has made her underperform the Republican bent of her Home seat.
In 2024, Greene underperformed Trump by 12.5 factors—making her one of many worst Republican candidates within the nation, in keeping with information from Break up Ticket. It goes with out saying that underperforming Trump by that a lot would definitely lose her a statewide election—by a landslide.
Each races are anticipated to be aggressive, with Republicans making an attempt to recruit Kemp to run in opposition to Ossoff. But when Greene turns into the GOP nominee in both race, it may spell doom for Republicans.
