The one thing they could all agree on was that Jeffrey Epstein was the most heinous sex trafficker in America.
And so to see now Trump hedging and then saying, stop talking about Epstein, there's no there there, was outrageous to her.
Then during the government shutdown, she began to go home and she talked to her constituents and they'd say, you know, housing is still unaffordable.
Grocers are still unaffordable.
We thought that the president was going to do something about this.
And why, by the way, is he spending all this money in Israel?
And we're seeing this horrible footage of what's taking place in Gaza.
Greene told me that she began to hear the G word, genocide.
by her own constituents.
And Greene became the first prominent Republican to describe what was taking place in Gaza as a genocide.
So Greene began to voice her concerns very publicly.
And it's not just that she voiced them, but it's where she voiced them.
which is largely regarded as a left-leaning show.
And the specter of this right-wing mega-warrior being on a show like that was a rather remarkable one.
And one, frankly, that people on the set of The View were surprised at.
I spoke to one of them who had said that they were suspecting that Green would come in loaded for bear and just rip into all of them and once again talk about how great Trump was.
They were not prepared at all for this really very accommodating individual.
who said, look, things have gotten overheated in today's politics.
