Marjorie Taylor Greene: Joining the military is like ‘throwing your life away’

Speaking to former Fox News host Lou Dobbs, Georgia GOP Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene said that thanks to President Joe Biden’s foreign policy, people who join the military are just “throwing your life away.”

“Can you imagine explaining to a recruit, you’re gonna be just fine, just like those Marines in Kabul,” Dobbs said in reference to the 13 service members who were killed in Afghanistan in August 2021 while the U.S. was withdrawing from the country.

“We may not have time to come back and get you. But you know, it’ll work out all right […] We’re going to fight a third world country for two decades and walk out with our tail between our legs,” Dobbs added. “Who in his or her right mind would say ‘sign me up for that, Sarge?'”

Greene responded: “Not my son and I know a lot of young people don’t want to have anything to do with that. It’s like throwing your life away.”

“Not to mention how they’ve been forced to take the vaccine and the ones that didn’t want to take it have been discharged. Who wants to be treated that way?”

“It’s a disaster from the top down and the bottom up. We can add in the training, the woke training, where they have to undergo this ridiculous ideology of the sick and satanic left,” Greene added.
