Greene: Republicans poke fun at Trump behind his back
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.), a previously fervent supporter of President Trump, said that her fellow Republicans made fun of the president behind his back. "I watched many of my colleagues go from making fun of him, making fun of how he talks - making fun of me, constantly, for supporting him - to, when he won the primary in 2024, they all started - excuse my language, Lesley, kissing his a- and decided to put on a MAGA hat for the first time," Greene told CBS News`s Lesley Stahl on "60 Minutes" during an interview set to air Sunday night. Greene has had a very public falling-out with Trump over the last several weeks. Last month, Greene announced that she is stepping back from Congress, stating she did not want to be a "battered wife" in the wake of her fallout with Trump, who unendorsed her and referred to her as a "traitor." Greene, in a lengthy statement, said she had "too much self respect and dignity, love my family way too much, and do not want my sweet district to have to endure a hurtful and hateful primary against me by the President we all fought for, only to fight and win my election while Republicans will likely lose the midterms." "I am withdrawing my support and Endorsement of ‘Congresswoman` Marjorie Taylor Greene, of the Great State of Georgia," Trump said on Truth Social in mid-November, also saying that in spite of his record, "all I see ‘Wacky` Marjorie do is COMPLAIN, COMPLAIN, COMPLAIN!" Greene had also pushed back on GOP leaders` government shutdown messaging by expressing fear over ObamaCare tax credits whose expiration could sharply raise insurance premiums for many Americans.
