Firebrand Republican Marjorie Taylor Greene has issued a surprising statement critical of President Donald Trump.
The Georgia congresswoman is known for her loyal support of the two-time president and her devout defense of his MAGA policy platform.
Displaying her faithfulness, Greene likened Trump to Jesus Christ during the president's high-profile legal battles last year.

On Friday, she issued a scathing statement putting distance in between her and the commander-in-chief.
'I represent the base and when I'm frustrated and upset over the direction of things, you better be clear, the base is not happy,' Greene, wrote on X alongside a long list of complaints.
I campaigned for no more foreign wars,' Greene wrote. 'And now we are supposedly on the verge of going to war with Iran.'
Her comment comes as the Trump administration has sought to address Iran's nuclear program. “Didn't we learn our lesson when we went to war in Iraq and killed Saddam Hussein because of 'weapons of mass destruction?' Did we ever find any?'” Greene said.

'Why on earth would we go over and occupy Ukraine and spend an untold amount of future American taxpayer dollars defending and mining their minerals as well as potentially putting American lives at risk and future war?' Greene asked. 'Why don’t we just mine our own rare earth minerals that are tied up on federal lands that the government confiscated years ago?' she continued.
The Trump ally also expressed her displeasure that the COVID-19 vaccines still have FDA approval though the treatment 'does not stop people from catching COVID.'
Greene also shared that she does not think the White House is doing enough to combat 'the evil transgender assault against our children.'
'This should be an all out effort by Republicans to end this insanity,' she posted. ***

MTG is Spike Gowdy in drag although she’s been rode harder and put away wet.
>> MTG needs to schedule a mud-wrestling live stream with AOC.
🤣 I’d buy a ticket!
I think her Tweet made many good points. I share her frustration at the pace of Pam Blondie. And I agree that the MAGA base does not want war with Iran, Russia or China. If you have not noticed, we have been striking the Houthis on and off since 2016 with very limited success. The idea of starting more dead end wars against far more capable adversaries is pure Neocon fantasy. It is important to sometimes say that aloud.
Not directed towards Trump.
She was born in 1974, yep, she's about at that age. (51) My now ex-wife started going through it when she turned 50 and she had a miserable time. The hot and cold flashes, mood swings, etc.. really did a number on her. It was really hard on her. That and some other issues she was going through at the same time which were a significant cause of our divorce.
She's since remarried and divorced again.
AOC wouldn’t last 30 seconds with MTG the way MTG trains.
If so she still makes excellent points. Maybe more Republicans need to let their hormones do the talking
Trump is systematically removing Iran’s ability to fight a war.
The MAGA base is anxious for results from our election victory, but we have to give the president time to sort things out.
The problems he faces are vast and extremely complex, and we just passed Day 100.
I think in another 100 days we’ll start seeing real results.
Lucky for us that DJT has a genius level IQ and works 18 hours a day 7 days a week to solve our problems.
No president has faced more intractable problems or worked harder to solve them.
She COULD have been a effective Senator.
Let’s hope Doug Collins steps up and Trump backs him this time.
MTG is right on this. Her delivery may be Ann Coulterish…but she’s right.
Does 500 metric tons of uranium count?
MTG would squash AOC like a grape.
When did democrats ever do that to Obama, Biden, Harris, etc?
I like MTG but no. Make it Anna Paulina Luna or Lauren Boebert vs AOC and you'd really have something. :^)
We don’t know if she even said it. It is the Daily Mail for gosh sake.
I’m not at “that age”, I’m not even a woman, but DJT has pushed a couple of my ‘WTF’ buttons this week too.
Why are there no comments about the ‘valid points’?
I also agree with her.
Hey, how about STFU!
