MTG Responds to House Democrats Planning to Sell Merchandise Featuring 'Bleach Blonde' 

MTG Responds to House Democrats Planning to Sell Merchandise Featuring ‘Bleach Blonde’ . Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) has responded to Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) after Crockett sought to fundraise from their recent exchange during a chaotic House hearing. Crockett’s campaign filed a trademark application for the phrase “bleach blonde bad built butch body,” which Greene had used to describe her, to be used on various merchandise.

Greene told Fox News Digital that she is happy with herself and her appearance, and that women should be themselves and not feel pressured to conform to certain beauty standards. She also criticized Crockett for accusing her of racism and for fundraising off of their exchange.

“I’m very happy with myself. I turn 50 on Monday, and I’m so excited that I’m still alive and healthy and have done so much in life. And I think no matter what shape, size or how we look, we need to be ourselves, not telling women the only way to be attractive or accepted is to have fake boobs, fake hair, fake lashes, and injected faces,” Greene said.

The tension between the two representatives began during a late-night House Oversight Committee meeting, where Crockett criticized Greene’s line of questioning and Greene responded by commenting on Crockett’s fake eyelashes. The exchange prompted a flurry of jeers from Democrats on the committee, and Crockett later announced a fundraising campaign selling merchandise with the phrase “bleach blonde bad built butch body.”

Greene’s spokesperson accused Crockett of hypocrisy, pointing out that multiple Democrats had accused House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-KY) of fundraising off of the same hearing. Crockett’s office responded that Comer’s email had violated ethics rules, while her own fundraising campaign did not.

The exchange highlights the ongoing tensions between Democrats and Republicans in the House, as well as the increasing use of social media and fundraising campaigns to amplify political messages. It also raises questions about the use of personal attacks and insults in political discourse, and the impact on civil dialogue and bipartisanship.

Greene’s comments about women’s appearance and beauty standards also sparked a wider conversation about body positivity and self-acceptance. Many women on social media praised Greene for her confidence and self-acceptance, while others criticized her for perpetuating harmful beauty standards.

Crockett’s fundraising campaign, meanwhile, has sparked a debate about the use of political insults and personal attacks in fundraising efforts. Some have praised Crockett for turning a negative exchange into a positive message, while others have criticized her for profiting off of a personal attack.

The exchange between Greene and Crockett is just the latest example of the increasing polarization and tension in the House. As the political divide continues to grow, it remains to be seen how lawmakers will find common ground and work towards bipartisanship.

In the meantime, the fundraising campaign and merchandise featuring the phrase “bleach blonde bad built butch body” are likely to continue to spark conversation and debate. As one Twitter user wrote, “I’m not a fan of either of them, but I do love a good meme. This is going to be a fun few weeks.”
