“I absolutely love Marjorie Taylor Greene … However, right now, Republicans have to be fighting the Radical Left Democrats, and all the Damage they have done to our Country,” Trump said in the post on Truth Social as the House was voting this afternoon.
Why do stupid motherfuckers Randomly capitalize certain Words when they write stuff?
It is Really fucking Irritating.
Pretty sure it’s to add emphasis. Without it they’d also probably be too bored to finish reading/writing their sentences.
Common in 18th centurt English, and I think German too, all Nouns were capitalized because Nouns were important.
Yeah, but he doesn’t do that. Like, his use isn’t even restricted to nouns.
There’s also a rare use in English where someone treats a non-proper noun as a proper noun to imply that they have entity-like status. I don’t know if there’s a term for that. Like, oh…
“Jim made sure to leave the toilet seat down. He knew that for Anne, this was one of the Important Marriage Obligations that he had.”
But he’s not doing that either, though that’s the closest thing I can think of.
At one point, he stated on Twitter that he did it for emphasis.
He also does all-caps words, as well as capitalized words. The former is a conventional way of showing emphasis.
That “rare use” you describe is something I associate with Tumblr mostly.
Trying to emulate Mein Kampf as much as possible
I think it’s like a “branding” thing, think of “™” being next to each word he does that with. They are loaded concepts that he emphasizes
Because they are stupid and borderline illiterate
My phone often does this when I use voice to text. I guess I speak in Capital Letters.
He’s trying to be relatable to his base, who are notoriously undereducated/uneducated.
radical
They keep using that word. I’m not sure it means what they think it means.
It’s a double whammy to say radical woke.
Oh, Margie, NO! You wanted to make a big show and grandstand and feel important. It didn’t work out and you looked like a fool. How can this happen?! It has to be connected to those damn Jewish space lasers!
GOP disapproval: When she introduced the motion, lawmakers on both sides booed Greene.
If I remember correctly, that’s a violation of House procedure – that’s actually a big difference between the House of Representatives in the US (a lot of decorum restrictions) and the House of Commons in the UK, where this is permitted and common.
Those rules can change, but I’d be surprised if they had.

Hissing and jeering is not proper decorum in the House (May 21, 1998, p. 10282).
Considering Greene herself showed a picture of Hunter Biden’s dick on the floor last year, I think they’re done with proper decorum.

I love seeing clips from the House of Commons. They scream/boo/jeer constantly
The Japanese politicians are the hardcore ones if I remember correctly.
I used to regularly watch Prime Minister’s Questions on C-Span back when I had cable. Lots of fun.
Decorum is something people just don’t believe in anymore, sadly.
