In a post on X, Greene said that “a hot bed of threats against me are being fueled and egged on by the most powerful man in the world”, without referring to Trump by name, adding it was “the man I supported and helped get elected”.

You see, Marjorie, it's called "stochastic violence". It's that thing where someone with a big platform demonizes you to their millions of followers, knowing that a few at the fringe will make Bad Things Happen.

You're familiar with this. Just not from this angle.
