Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) is shocking lots of people with her recent statements contradicting President Donald Trump and calling out “weak Republican men” including House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.).
Even more surprising: She actually said positive things about Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) after the former House speaker announced her retirement last week.
Although some have speculated that Greene is trying to change her image from loony conspiracy theorist to semi-reasonable conservative in preparation for a 2028 presidential run, the pivot is confusing to some people, like the president himself.
In a press conference on Monday, Trump was asked for his response to Greene’s recent critique that domestic policy should take priority over foreign affairs ― and her acknowledgment that grocery prices have not, as he has falsely claimed, decreased.
“Yeah. So, uhh,” Trump began. “I don’t know what happened to Marjorie,” he said before adding, “She’s a nice woman, but I don’t know what happened. She’s lost her way, I think.”
