Full Episode
For Donald Trump and Republican leaders, this is the ultimate betrayal. Marjorie Taylor Greene turning against them on the issues of releasing the Epstein files and extending the Affordable Care Act subsidies During this government shutdown, Marjorie Taylor Greene has escalated her feud with Donald Trump and the Republican Party. And she says, I don't work for you, Donald Trump.
I don't work for you, MAGA Mike Johnson. She goes, I work for the people of Georgia. And she says, well, I don't like the Affordable Care Act. She says the premiums are too expensive as is. But she says, if we don't extend the Affordable Care Act subsidies, then people will lose their health care and they will die.
I want to share with you what Marjorie Taylor Greene says as her feud with Trump and the Republicans escalates. Now, Marjorie Taylor Greene, she blames advisors of Donald Trump. And she says, I'm trying to give him the right information, but he's surrounding himself with people who literally put on a MAGA hat a year ago who are giving him bad advice. I believe she's very wrong there.
I think this is who Donald Trump always is. You go back to his first term and he promised that he would come up with a health care plan in two weeks, but he lied and lied and lied. And in my view, Donald Trump and all these mega Republicans want to. push Americans off of their health care plans.
They don't want the government involved at all in subsidizing or helping or lowering costs or doing anything when it comes to Medicare, Medicaid or the Affordable Care Act because they want to take that money.
and they want to give it to the billionaires, and they want to help billionaires get tax cuts, while Donald Trump lies and claims that he's brought in $17 trillion so he can dangle in front of people, oh, I'm going to give you dividend checks and rebate checks like a Ponzi schemer and just lie and lie and lie and never actually deliver or say, oh, I'm going to come up with a plan.
You just got to give me some time. Let me just show you what went down. We'll go over the evidence and receipts piece by piece. First, I want to show you Marjorie Taylor Greene. This was her interview with NBC, and she said, I got elected without Trump's endorsement. I don't work for him, she says. Watch this. Here, let's play it.
I certainly support the president, but I'm not what would be the right way to say it. I'm not some sort of blind slave to the president, and I don't think anyone should be. I serve in Congress. We're a separate branch of the government, and I'm not elected by the president. I'm not elected by anyone that works in the White House. I'm elected by my district. That's who I work for.
And I got elected without the president's endorsement. And, you know, I think that has served me really well. So I get to be independent as a Republican. And I think what helps him the most and is when he has people that are willing to be honest with him and not just tell him what they think he wants to hear.
