The far-right congresswoman has increasingly broken ranks with the MAGA movement, leading even Donald Trump to wonder ‘What’s going on with Marjorie?’

Marjorie Taylor Greene has hit out at her fellow Republicans for “doing nothing” about rising food and healthcare costs in her latest breach with the Trump administration.

In an interview with the conservative broadcaster Real America’s Voice on Tuesday, the Georgia congresswoman warned that letting Joe Biden’s Affordable Care Act subsidies expire at the end of the year would “crush” Americans’ finances.

Those subsidies are now at the heart of a government shutdown that’s lasted 15 days and counting. Senate Democrats are demanding the subsidies be extended as a condition of reopening the government while Republicans are refusing to budge.

    She’s right BUT it doesn’t negate the fact that she should have known (or did know but ignored the fact) that Trump wouldn’t do a single thing for the American people. He was only ever going to be about fleecing them for as much as he, his family, and his cronies can manage to take.

      She did know, but at the time, if you didn’t support his fat ass you were done. Now that MAGA is feeling the pain and turning, so is she.

      She will only do what benefits her. Nothing else.
