During her speech at the Republican National Convention, Marjorie Taylor Greene seemed to make a bizarre noise as she spoke, and Jon Stewart can't stop mocking her for it.

Jon Stewart had a lot to unpack on Tuesday's airing of The Daily Show, given a wild week that included the shocking assassination attempt on former Republican President Donald Trump as well as the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee, which kicked off on Monday.

One specific highlight from the opening night of the RNC that Jon couldn't help but fixate on was far-right Georgia Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene making strange sounds while addressing delegates during her speech.


Stewart referred to MTG as "one particular fiery member of Congress" who "struggled mightily as her body rejected the unity theme as though it were transplanted like a monkey heart."

During her speech, MTG referred to Trump as the "Founding Father of the America First movement" and raised her fist as the rallying attendees cheered.

"Make America successful again," she said, followed by a muffled giggling sound. It was not a one-off occurrence.

The strange affectation was heard again as she continued telling the crowd to help make the nation "wealthy again" and once more after stressing, "the country we deserve."

Viewers were not just hearing things.

Stewart wondered:

"She knows she's making that noise, right?"
"Or is that the noise she makes when the interior monologue is going, ’Marjorie, there’s gonna be plenty of time to talk about Satanic Democrats, just keep it in, Marjorie, just... ”

He continued to mimic MTG's imagined inner dialogue of resisting the urge to lash out instead of keeping the peace for the sake of the cause.

Social media users were weirded out by MTG's nervous laughter, or whatever it was.



Elsewhere, people were unnerved by MTG's speech in general.








Donald Trump will close out the four-day gathering with an acceptance speech for the Republican nomination on Thursday night, the theme for which is reportedly "Make America Great Once Again."
