Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene gushed over a supportive phone call from former President Trump on Saturday – causing a snarl back and forth with fellow Republican Mitt Romney.
“I had an AMAZING phone call with my favorite POTUS, President Trump!” the lightning rod Georgia freshman tweeted.
“I am so grateful for his support… he is 100% loyal to the people and America First,” she added.
Greene has been pushing the far-right QAnon conspiracy theory and was given a temporary 12-hour Twitter ban this month for questioning the results of the January 5 second election in Georgia.
She came under more attention this week because she reportedly liked and responded positively to previous social media posts advocating violence against Democrats.
A colleague, Rep. Ro Khanna (D-Calif.), Has called on Congress to oust her – and some Republicans seem to have lost patience with her rhetoric.
“Lies of a feather come together: the bullshit of Marjorie Taylor Greene and the” big lie “of a stolen election,” Utah Senator Mitt Romney tweeted in response to Greene’s post about her call with the former president.
Greene soon snapped.
“Please grow a pair or a backbone,” she snapped in a post addressed to the GOP’s 2012 presidential flag bearer.
