An assertion on who put “Americans last” from a congresswoman deemed a “traitor” by the president earned a comment from the White House with perspective on “quitters.”
Former Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene’s (R) departure from public office hadn’t seen her temper feuding with the administration as she embarked on a speaker circuit, soapboxing in opposition to President Donald Trump’s policies. Her continued criticisms likewise found her getting taken down a notch as a response to her latest rant found the White House calling Greene out for “quitting on … the MAGA movement …”
Thursday, the once-stalwart supporter of Trump, who’d been dubbed Marjorie “Traitor” Greene ahead of her early departure from Congress, took to X with some bipartisan bashing as she wrote, “Americans don’t give a damn about Trump building a [White House] ballroom or renovating the Kennedy Center as they are paying $4+ dollars per gallon for gas and nearly $6 for diesel because of another pointless foreign war. Americans are suffering.”
After listing credit card debt, insurance costs, the cost of living and inflation “because of all the stupid decisions made by stupid politicians,” she argued, “Republicans are going to lose the House in the midterms and maybe the Senate too because Trump and Republicans sold America First but instead governed America LAST,” and added, “Democrats put illegals and trans above Americans and offer no new policies to solve the problems they too created. Both parties are absolute failures.”

Americans are suffering.

“Don’t lecture your voters that you have to vote for them when you have intentionally failed and betrayed your campaign promises just because the other side is intolerable. Screw you,” continued Greene a day after sharing data that showed large margins for Democrats who’d flipped Republican-held state legislative offices. “You betray Americans, you put Americans last, you deserve to lose, you don’t deserve support.”
Of course, the White House didn’t let the comment go unaddressed as spokesman Davis Ingle issued a statement to Fox News Digital that read, “There is nothing more ‘America Last’ than quitting on your constituents and the MAGA movement in the middle of your term. President Trump is fighting every single day to Make America Great Again — we don’t have time for quitters.”
While Greene was lobbing vitriol toward 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, her fiancé, Brian Glenn, was in attendance at the president’s cabinet meeting after spending time away from his role as White House correspondent for Real America’s Voice.
It was there that the chief executive singled Glenn out, saying, “I think I’m going to go with a man that I’ve missed. Brian, I haven’t seen you in a long time. He’s been in a very strange location. I don’t know.”
“He’s had a strange thing happen,” continued Trump who prompted the correspondent for a question. Glenn said it was “good to see” the president as well before asking if he would suspend the federal gas tax, earning the response, “It’s something we have in our pocket if we think it’s necessary.”

Greene’s sideline commentary earned mixed reactions on social media as many maintained a similar posture to the White House on her being a “quitter,” while others leaned into concerns about the RINOs in the GOP failing to act on issues that matter most to constituents.
Ex-Congresswoman and current Dairy Queen night shift worker MTG wants to “burn the system down”. Sounds very America First.

I was cool with the ballroom back when I thought we would get MASS DEPORTATIONS and stay out of wars.

Oh, look who’s suddenly an expert on ‘America First’—the quitter who bailed on her congressional seat after just five years, carefully timing her exit to lock in that sweet taxpayer-funded lifetime pension while lecturing the rest of us about suffering. You couldn’t even finish…

Marjorie “Code Pink” Greene… the woman who QUIT her own Congressional seat like a total coward rather than face her voters in a primary… is now the EXPERT on America First?! She tipped off radical protesters to President Trump’s dinner location, ran straight into the arms of…

You’re calling people losers, but at least they stepped up and fought. Walking away when things get tough and then taking shots from the sidelines, that’s what real losers do.
