US Politics Tense as Trump Calls Out Greene's 'Act'
President Donald Trump has intensified the rift with Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, a fellow Republican from Georgia, by accusing her of performing for Democrats. The dispute follows weeks of heated exchanges between the two over foreign policy.
During a press conference on Monday, Trump expressed surprise at Greene's stance, saying she had "lost her way." The MAGA Republican has been vocal about her criticism of Trump's foreign policy, attributing recent losses by Republicans to his agenda.
"I have to view the presidency as a worldwide situation, not locally," Trump said. "We could have a world that's on fire where wars come to our shores very easily if you had a bad president." He was quick to point out the consequences of his predecessor's policies, including Russia-Ukraine.
Greene has bucked party lines by speaking out against Israel's assault on Gaza and advocating for the release of Epstein files. Trump accused Greene of catering to Democrats, suggesting that she has "some kind of an act going β but I'm surprised at her."
The Republican responded with a statement, refuting Trump's claims: "I haven't lost my way. I'm 100% America first and only!"
Greene is known for her unwavering stance on right-wing issues. The feud between the two politicians has fueled concerns about internal divisions within the GOP.
