‘Low IQ traitor’: Trump torches MTG after she claims he ‘directly fueled’ death threats against her
President Donald Trump torched Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia on social media after her highly anticipated “60 Minutes” interview aired on Sunday.
For years, Greene was Trump’s biggest cheerleader in Congress, coming to bat for the president on nearly every political cause. Their unique alliance crumbled in November after Trump made a shocking move to withdraw his endorsement of Greene.
‘Her new views are those of a very dumb person.’
Greene maintained that the split was due to her demand for the unconditional release of the Epstein files, while other reports suggest she wanted to pursue higher office and Trump discouraged her from doing so, leaving the Georgia Republican jaded. Greene promptly announced that she was resigning from Congress and stepping down in January.
While Trump continues to harshly criticize his former ally, Greene has been making the rounds in various outlets with which she has been combative in the past. Her appearance on “60 Minutes” on CBS garnered even more backlash from Trump and his supporters.

During the interview with host Lesley Stahl, Greene remarked on the increase in death threats against her and her family, saying they were “directly fueled by President Trump.”
Trump said the real reason Greene and the MAGA movement parted ways was because she was “jilted.”
“Too much work, not enough time, and her ideas are, NOW, really BAD – She sort of reminds me of a Rotten Apple!” Trump wrote in a Monday Truth Social post. “Marjorie is not AMERICA FIRST or MAGA, because nobody could have changed her views so fast, and her new views are those of a very dumb person.”
Greene’s office did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Blaze News.

Trump described Greene as “a very poorly prepared Traitor, who in her confusion made many really stupid statements” to Stahl.
Trump went on to criticize the new ownership of the “60 Minutes” program and to demand an apology from “Trump hating” Stahl for her contentious interview with him during his first term, just before the 2020 presidential election.
“Stahl … still owes me an apology from when she attacked me on the show (with serious conviction!), that Hunter Biden’s LAPTOP FROM HELL was produced by Russia, not Hunter himself (TOTALLY PROVEN WRONG!),” Trump wrote.
“My real problem with the show, however, wasn’t the low IQ traitor,” Trump continued, referring to Greene, “it was that the new ownership of 60 Minutes, Paramount, would allow a show like this to air.”

‘Canary in a coal mine’: Ousted speaker warns against the rising risk of GOP House resignations
Former Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) warned that political breakups might become more commonplace in the Republican Party.
McCarthy’s prediction comes after Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia announced that she will retire from the House in January before finishing her congressional term. This announcement followed a public falling-out with longtime ally President Donald Trump.
‘I’ve found Marjorie to be very effective.’
Despite being one of Trump’s most loyal supporters on Capitol Hill, Greene said their falling-out was over her commitment to releasing the Epstein files, which the White House later supported. Other reports suggested that the split came after the White House squashed Greene’s political aspirations beyond the House of Representatives.
“She’s leaving Congress, but I don’t think that’s the end that you’ll see about her,” McCarthy said.

“I’ve always believed that any time you have an elected official that’s known by three initials, they’re effective on what they do,” McCarthy added. “And I’ve found Marjorie to be very effective.”
McCarthy, who is all too familiar with having one’s political career cut short by MAGA world, said Greene’s resignation may be the first of many unless Congress changes course.
“She’s almost like a canary in a coal mine,” McCarthy said. “And this is something inside Congress. They better wake up, because they’re going to get a lot of people retiring, and they gotta focus.”

McCarthy also noted that the infighting ultimately takes away from a very small window of time in which Republicans hold the ultimate political advantage: a trifecta majority.
“I think keeping members out of Congress, you only get two years to be in the majority,” McCarthy said. “And if the Democrats get you not to work every day for two months, that’s losing two months of the majority.”
