Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA), has run afoul of former President Donald Trump‘s camp over the recent speakership drama with House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA).
Greene has emerged as Johnson’s biggest Republican foe in Congress after his vote to pass a spending bill seen as unfavorable by many Republicans. She introduced a motion to vacate the speakership, a threat that doesn’t appear to be gaining any traction with Republicans but could pose a problem for Johnson soon.
In Johnson’s favor, the country’s most powerful Republican and his allies are reportedly unhappy with the threats to undercut the speaker. Among those opposing the move are Trump and his camp, who have privately criticized her over the move, according to Politico.
Below is an excerpt from Politico:
Former president Donald Trump is set to appear with Johnson at an “election integrity” event at his Mar-a-Lago resort Friday — a joint event that hints at a burgeoning but tentative alliance between the two powerful Republicans.
The upshot: Trump world isn’t happy with Greene’s threat to throw the House GOP into chaos once again. There’s a fear that an election-year speakership battle will undercut the party’s goals of keeping the House and flipping the White House and Senate.
Those around the former president are growing weary of the constant motion-to-vacate threats, that person added: “It’s no way to run a party; it’s no way to run a House. You can’t work in that environment.”
Politico quotes one Trump insider as saying Wednesday night, “One hundred percent distraction. Unwanted. And just stupid. We’re not going to get trapped into this cycle of bullshit that comes out of members of the House.”
Another person close to Trump, referring to Greene, reportedly said, “It’s fair to say we don’t think she’s being constructive. The internal fighting is not appreciated by [Trump].”
Politico also wrote that Greene’s attacks against Johnson “are coming just as Trump and Johnson themselves are starting to develop a rapport — engaging in more frequent phone calls, for one, and now putting a joint event on the books.”
