'Complete and utter idiot': Twitter hilariously heckles Marjorie Taylor Greene's swipe at Budweiser

Baptist explains why Marjorie Taylor Greene’s call for ‘Christian nationalism’ is so dangerous

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene's (R-GA) boycott of the LGBTQ-supporting Anheuser-Busch brew brand, Bud Light, is flopping.

The GOP lawmaker tweeted Saturday a picture of a case of Coors Light in the trunk of her car, writing, "I would have bought the king of beers, but it changed it's gender to the queen of beers. So it's made to chill from here on out."

According to NBC, her post comes after transgender social media influencer Dylan Mulvaney posted to Instagram a sponsored video in partnership with Bud Light for its March Madness contest.

Bud Light has received significant backlash from conservatives, including Greene, since.

NBC reports:

In the two days since Mulvaney's post about Bud Light, which is owned by Anheuser-Busch, countless videos have been shared online showing consumers dumping their Bud Light products in trash bins and down sinks — and even violently destroying cans of the beer.

However, Greene publicly announced her retraction of support for Bud Light, not knowing Coors is a longtime advocate for LGBTQ rights.

Per Denver Pride's website: "'Coors Light has been a sponsor of the Center on Colfax and the Pride Parade and Denver PrideFest for nearly two decades,' said Molson Coors spokesperson Michael Nordman. 'Our Pride runs mile high so we are excited to support the Center’s vital programs and services that positively impact the LGBTQ community.'"

Social media users promptly pummeled the Republican for her obvious oblivion.

Lakota Man: "How do complete and utter idiots get elected to positions of public trust?"

Jax Persists: "Oh honey. Coors has been a very open supporter of LGBTQ+ for decades. They even sponsor Pride parades and festivals. Good lord, y'all and your self owns are giving me life today."

@Kaylan_TX: "Who wants to tell her?"

Geoff Plitt: "Seek professional help."

bryan metzger: "i only vaguely understand what this is about and i am a politics reporter"

Andrea Kuszewski: "How can they be so stupid and still remember to breathe"

Tim Miller: "Bad news you can't drink Coors either you lost Colorado in the national divorce"

Sweet Emotion: "This person is deeply, DEEPLY disturbed."

@ser_crispncool: "You might need to cancel Coors too:"

@hollhideaway: "When you hate women so much that you view 'queen' as an insult... Also Coors is more openly supportive of LGBTQIA+ than Bud... sooo... anyway... Just a new reminder that MTG is somehow far below the already shockingly low intelligence level of our government officials"
