Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia responded to a leftist reporter who asked why she supported “convicted felon” Donald Trump by reminding him they supported George Floyd.
In the video posted on X, Greene fought back against comments from Democratic Rep. Jamie Raskin of Maryland.
Greene was also asked if she had been rude during a Monday hearing on COVID-19 hearing, where she refused to address Dr. Anthony Fauci, former National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, with his title of “Dr.”
“No, absolutely not. I mean, everything I said is correct,” Green said.
“It’s how the American people feel, it’s what we know to be a fact, it’s all the evidence has been proven true,” she said.
“We have Jamie Raskin in there accusing us of worshipping Trump, worshipping a ‘convicted felon,'” she said.
“Well, he is a convicted felon,” the interviewer replied.
“Well yeah, so is George Floyd. And every … You all, too, the media worship George Floyd,: Greene snapped.
Watch
I’m tired of Democrat antics claiming Republicans worship Donald Trump.

I worship God!

“Democrats worship George Floyd. There were riots, burning down the f***ing country over George Floyd,” she said.
Floyd, who had a colorful criminal record that included burglary, sparked nationwide riots following his death while in custody in Minneapolis in 2020
Greene continued.
“And Raskin is in there saying we worship [Trump]. Excuse me, let me correct you, and this is really important. I don’t worship … I worship God. God! And Jesus is my savior,” she said.
“I don’t worship President Trump and I’m really sick and tired of the bulls**t antics I have to deal with constantly from the Democrats,” she said.
“So that’s what we went through in there. And then they’re sitting there, they can attack my character all they want. Whatshisface is in there, whoever was talking last, was calling me insane,” she added.
“But yet, we can’t say oh they’re attacking my character? Oh, no, it’s nonstop BS and antics,” she said.
Greene said Democrats have a lot to take the blame for.
“You want to know why? The Democrats don’t have anything. They’re responsible for the lockdowns, forced vaccinations, kids being forced to stay home, people committing suicide and all the horrors this country lived through during COVID,” she said.
“Fauci belongs in prison, he should be tried for mass murder and he should be tried for crimes against humanity. That’s how I feel after that hearing,” she said.
During the hearing, Greene called Fauci “Mr” istead of “Dr” adding, “because you’re not a doctor in my few minutes … that man does not deserve to have a license. As a matter of a fact it should be revoked and he belongs in prison.”
“We should be recommending you to be prosecuted… for crimes against humanity,” she said then.
