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

Well, if Tillis is against you, you must be doing something right.
Gillis can get bent - if it weren’t for MTG the GOP would be a dead party.
Translation: Standing on principle exposes the establishment’s corruption and threatens its ability to continue to enrich itself at the expense of its base and the American people.
GOP Senators are the worst.
They’ve done a wonderful job with the $9billion to Hamas.
I spoke to three different people about this material.
All seeking explanation that largely doesn’t exist.
Not one of them had even heard of the $9billion to Hamas.
She’s rocking the boat, those on the gravy train don’t want to be knocked off.
You are going to have characters on both sides in the House. AOC doesn’t keep the Dems from winning too many elections.
The “brand” is already in the gutter.
“GOP Senators are the worst.”
Yeah, the wurst.
And there is no shortage of them.
Sen. Tillis, the hate that the Republican base has for GOPe leaders it was well earned. We know that you are controlled opposition and we will remove you all eventually.
Bah!
With the tiny margin we have in the House, now is not the time to kick out the Speaker, but saying MTG is dragging us down is an ironic absurdity.
Tillis never fails to disappoint.
“Well, if Tillis is against you, you must be doing something right.”
That’s for sure! Tillis really should be a RAT.
RINO’s feelin the MAGA heat!
