Matt Gaetz Gives Himself, Lauren Boebert And Marjorie Taylor Greene A Nickname
Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) shared a nickname for himself and two other Donald Trump-adoring extremists on Thursday, appearing to band them together as a right-wing alternative to the group of progressive House lawmakers known as “The Squad.”
“The Pro-America Squad,” Gaetz wrote on Twitter about this photo of himself, Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.) and Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) watching a House Judiciary Committee hearing:

Critics came up with alternative nicknames for the three Republicans. All three voted to overturn the 2020 election result, peddled Trump’s election lies and downplayed the Capitol insurrection.
Three pennies waitin' for change.
Diet food for zombies.
The Traitor Trio.
A tragedy in three parts.
A dullard's triad.
Three turds, no punchbowl. https://t.co/mChh4COBuV— Rex Huppke (@RexHuppke) October 21, 2021
