Marjorie Taylor Greene has recently made headlines for disagreeing with her fellow Republicans, but she is adamantly “not a Democrat” and still loves President Donald Trump. During her recent appearance on The View, Greene asserted that though she has been speaking out against Republicans as of late, she actually hasn’t changed at all.
The controversial Congresswoman surprised the co-hosts on The View, however, because she continued to criticize Republicans and complain about “weak Republican men.” Co-host Sunny Hostin said, “I’m sitting here just stumped, you know, because you are a very different person than I thought. You’ve broken from the Republican Party on a number of issues, including, besides the shutdown, the war in Gaza, tariffs, Trump’s desire to expand AI, foreign aid.”
But Greene explained that she hasn’t actually changed. “Here’s something you all may not know about me: I think a lot of people on the left are learning that when I ran for Congress in 2020, I ran criticizing Republicans and Democrats equally, because I come from a working-class family,” she explained.
Though a lot of people see her recent behavior as very different from how she acted in the past, she maintains that she is still the same person. “Everybody’s like, ‘Marjorie Taylor Green has changed,'” she told the co-hosts on the show. “And I’m like, oh no, nothing has changed about me. I am staying absolutely, 100 percent true to the people that voted for me, and true to my district.”
Greene has also been outspoken about releasing the Epstein files in spite of Trump’s dismissive attitude. She explained, “It seems like very rich and powerful men are being protected. And I will sign anybody’s resolution, and I’ll get on board with anyone’s wish to release those files, because this is about women, especially when they were teenagers, were victims of rape and sexual abuse by Jeffrey Epstein, and according to the victims another, there’s a list of men that they haven’t released yet.”
Previously, Greene criticized the “weak Republican men” who are “afraid of strong Republican women” when speaking to The Washington Post. During her appearance on The View, she shed more light on what (and who) she was referring to. “When I talk about weak Republican men, I’m pretty much oftentimes talking about the leadership in the House and the Senate,” she stated. “They’re not getting our agenda done.”
Given that the government is failing its people, according to Greene, she has “no problem pointing fingers.” At one point, she also said, “I’m really tired of the pissing contest in Washington, D.C., between the men, I really am.”
She called on women to come together and make a difference. “Women to women, we need to pave a new path,” she said to the co-hosts. “This country, our beautiful country, our red, white, and blue flag, is just being ripped to shreds, and I think it takes women of maturity to sew it back together.”
