Marjorie Taylor Greene compared Biden to Hitler, angering Israeli diplomat

Republican Marjorie Taylor Greene seems to have put her foot in her mouth yet again. And this time, an Israeli diplomat and several Jewish groups are upset with the congresswoman for comparing President Joe Biden to Adolf Hitler.

Marjorie Taylor Greene tweeted an edited video featuring Joe Biden with a Hitler-esque mustache and an audio clip of the Nazi leader.

In another tweet, the Georgia congresswoman wrote: "Joe Biden is Hitler. #NaziJoe has to go."

Greene's comments came following President Biden's speech which criticized "MAGA forces" and said that the group was "determined to take this country backward."

In the speech Biden gave in Pennsylvania, he said, "The Republican party today is dominated, driven, and intimidated by Donald Trump and the MAGA Republicans, and that is a threat to this country."

Biden clearly touched a nerve because the congresswoman wrote on Twitter, "I guess when President Butterbeans is frail, weak, and dementia ridden, the Hitler imagery was their attempt to make him look "tough" while he declares war on half of America as enemies of the state."

According to the Jewish Telegraphic Agency, an Israel diplomat who wished to remain anonymous made a statement saying, "I am appalled by this cynical use of Nazi imagery and Hitler comparisons by a member of the United States Congress."

The diplomat continued, "As we face a rise in antisemitic incidents, in the US and around the world, rhetoric like this only fuels the persistent threat of hatred, extremism, and violence."

The American Jewish Committee also commented on Twitter that the doctored video was "vile, offensive, and completely unbecoming for a member of Congress."

Greene was also criticized for her Twitter rant by the Anti-Defamation League and American Jewish Committee. CEO of ADL Jonathan Greenblatt said MTG's tweet was "disgraceful."

Greenblatt said that with one tweet, she "managed to trivialize Hitler and the Nazis' sheer evil."

Greenblatt added that Greene's comments belittled "the serious threat that extremism poses to this country."

Biden's speech against MAGA sparked critical comments from several Republicans, and the dramatic red lighting behind Biden didn't help things.

The former Governor of South Carolina, Nikki Haley, was also unimpressed with Biden's speech. Haley appeared on Fox News and said it looked like Biden was "in the depths of ****."

Whereas former assistant treasury secretary Monica Crowley said the red lighting used for Biden's speech was "almost satanic" when she discussed the President's speech on Fox News.

However, Marjorie Taylor Greene took things to the next level, as she has been known to do in the past, by comparing Biden to Hitler.
