Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) continues to ruffle MAGA feathers as she did on Tuesday's House Republican conference call, during which she warned that President Donald Trump is losing support over healthcare battle, according to two different reports.
Capitol Hill reporter Juliegrace Brufke reported on X that, according to a source on the call, "Marjorie just got on and s—— all over House Republicans and said Trump is getting less popular because we aren’t fixing Obamacare.”
Punchbowl News founder Jake Sherman corroborated Brufke's story, also posting on X that Greene "just said that she is tired of people listening to the White House political staff. MTG said that Thune needs to use the nuclear option and reopen the government. (In other words, abolish the filibuster and pass a funding bill)."
Sherman said House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) was miffed, saying "Johnson was a bit displeased with this comment and suggested that [Greene] should not complain about House Republicans 'online.'"
"How does that help us, Marjorie" Johnson asked Greene, according to Sherman.
These reports come as Greene grows increasingly vocal and critical of the Republican party, telling Semafor in an interview last week that "I can’t see into the future, but I see Republicans losing the House if Americans are continuing to go paycheck-to-paycheck."
The Daily Beast reports that Greene's condemnation of Trump and the party is winning her support as MAGA chooses her side over the president's.
“I love her because she’s a voice for the people,” said Elizabeth Fielden, a Republican from Ringgold, GA in an interview with Bloomberg.
Republicans on the call, however, were divided.
According to Brufke, as "MTG was pushing to get rid of the filibuster," some callers were "disagreeing with MTG."
Liberal activist who goes by the handle Sundae Divine noted that Greene's transformation from MAGA hardliner to MAGA critic is acrobatic.
"Some politicians flip-flop. Marge cartwheels," she wrote.
