On The Trump-MTG Controversy

The truth is that Marjorie Taylor Greene was always a liability for the Trump coalition. Dems actively cited her as a whatabout way to defend their worst members. But that liability got overlooked because she was a team player.

Then when she wanted to run for Senate and wanted Trump’s endorsement, he saw clear evidence she would lose and said no. Since then, she’s given up the team player stance and simply tried to undermine the admin at every turn. He got tired of it.

This wasn’t about one issue. It’s months of her trying to intentionally undermine Republican messaging and taking shots. Most recently, she’s gone on a tour of liberal outlets and programs to do exactly that.

She threw a tantrum over his handling of the Iran war and suggested he was betraying his base. He turned out right.

She joined the Dem efforts to deflect from current issues to focus on the Epstein stuff, including doing a press conference where there was a sign accusing Trump of being a pedo right behind her. He took that personally.

She blamed Republicans and Mike Johnson for the Dem shutdown.

She’s been actively going around suggesting that the Trump admin is failing on the economy.

She went from publicly defending Hb-1 visas less than a year ago to trying to capitalize on a bad quote from Trump and introduce a bill that contradicted her own previous stance.

Even if you think she’s right about some of these topics, it’s obvious that none of this is about policy or the individual issues. It’s a revenge tour because Trump wouldn’t endorse her doomed Senate run.

And now that Trump got tired of her getting applause from the left at his expense and fought back, she’s playing the victim.
