GOP senator: Greene ‘dragging our brand down’
The Hill ^ | 04/24/24 8:01 AM ET | BY TARA SUTER

Sen. Thom Tillis (R-N.C.) took a shot at Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) on Tuesday, saying she is “dragging our brand down.”

“She is a horrible leader,” Tillis said of Greene, according to audio played on CNN’s “Erin Burnett OutFront.” “She is dragging our brand down. She — not the Democrats — are the biggest risk to us getting back to a majority.”

He added that the Georgia Republican is “uninformed” and “a total waste of time,” per the clip, highlighted my Mediaite.

Greene has been in the spotlight over her motion to vacate threat against Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) and her outspoken opposition to providing more aid to Ukraine in its war against Russia.

A package of foreign aid bills — including Ukraine and Israel aid — easily passed the House over the weekend and, after debate, it advanced through the Senate on Tuesday. President Biden is expected to sign the bills Wednesday.

Following the House vote, Greene lashed out at Johnson and her GOP colleagues who helped push the additional aid through. She specifically called out the Speaker as a “traitor,” in a post on the social platform X.

“Johnson once again passed a bill with the help of Democrats while the majority of the Republican majority voted against it,” Greene wrote. “Not only is Mike Johnson a traitor to our conference, he’s a traitor to our country.”

Tillis wasn’t the first Republican to call out Greene. Rep. Marc Molinaro (R-N.Y.) said in an interview last week that the Georgia lawmaker’s political “theater” must “come to an end,” likely referring to her threat to oust Johnson

The little creep Johnson is a Hero because he put the Spending party back on track.

They’re going to protect that money. Free Money for everybody (but working Americans).

They are dead. The regular GOP base has had enough. Just my opinion.

The GOP is a dead party, Greene is mostly wasting her breath at this point.

Tillis himself is an embarrassment, but it is possible that MTG is indeed the Alex Jones of congress critters.

What BRAND would that be Thommmy? Marlboro, Salem, Winston== you Tobacco Whore RINO. What a useless turd. The other new Senator is going to show you up, bozo. Doling out fed dollars to the “needy” of NC is your entire plan— and a complete waste of air.

“She is a horrible leader,”

It safe to be spineless bastard, happy to suck up that SwampJuice.

Obongo plays the NWO tune and this sorry sack of dung is happy to dance to their tune.

“She is dragging our brand down. She — not the Democrats — are the biggest risk to us getting back to a majority.”

We don't care if you are in the majority. We care about our country being fixed.

I CAN’T WAIT to vote against Tillis next time. I personally turned at least 3 people that I know of who were going to vote for Jody Cunningham by explaining to them that - yes - he’s a Jody.

That doesn’t go down well in this state which has a lot of military families.

Tillis then set about making me disgusted that I voted for him and got others to. He’s a typical RINO. He doesn’t represent the people in this state and he’s got to go.

"“dragging our brand down.”"

What brand? That's the problem. Lots of differing opinions in the Republican Party (and even on FR). Let the voters decide. It will all get sorted out ... or it won't.

When the so-called ‘brand’ is already in the gutter, it’s hard to drag it down any further.

Getting censured by the NC GOP taught Tillis nothing.
