MTG lays into 'weak Republican men' in Congress as scorched-earth approach to her own party turns nuclear

If Republican leaders and President Donald Trump were hoping Marjorie Taylor Greene would calm down after weeks of attacks on party policy — the MAGA firebrand just showed them she has no intention of doing any such thing.

The Georgia congresswoman said in a new interview this week that her clashes with fellow Republicans aren’t over, even as House Speaker Mike Johnson has spoken publicly about his efforts to stop the barrage of attacks launched by the firebrand Georgia congresswoman.

Speaking with The Washington Post in an interview that was published on Tuesday, Greene blamed “weak Republican men” in Congress for supposedly trying to marginalize her and other women in the GOP conference who, she said, were interested in making real progress on issues.

“Whereas President Trump has a very strong, dominant style — he’s not weak at all — a lot of the men here in the House are weak,” Greene told the Post. “There’s a lot of weak Republican men and they’re more afraid of strong Republican women. So they always try to marginalize the strong Republican women that actually want to do something and actually want to achieve.”

Heck, she's even starting to look attractive the more she attacks Republicans.

Her wing of the MAGat party built their whole identities and core beliefs around certain bullshit things that were "promised" to them by 45 - "Epstein, sex trafficking, and pedophilia", "Isolationism", "anti-immigrant", and for some, "fiscal responsibility", and he did a TACO on them for 3 out those 4.
