Marjorie Taylor Greene disavows toxic politics,' apologizes after Trump cuts ties
"The most hurtful thing he said, which is absolutely untrue, is he called me a traitor, and that is so extremely wrong, Greene told CNN's Dana Bash on State of the Union, her first interview since the falling-out. And those are the types of words used that can radicalize people against me and put my life in danger."
"I'm only responsible for myself and my own words and actions, Greene told Bash. I've been working on this a lot lately, to put down the knives in politics. I really want to just see people be kind to one another, and we need to figure out a new path forward that is focused on the American people. She added that she hoped others, and one person in particular, would follow suit. I'm leading the way with my own example, and I hope that President Trump can do the same, she told Bash."
Marjorie Taylor Greene apologized for participating in toxic politics and said she would act differently going forward, urging others, including President Trump, to do the same. She described being called a traitor as absolutely untrue and said that such language can radicalize people and put her life in danger. Greene said she takes responsibility for her own words and actions and has been trying to "put down the knives in politics," promote kindness, and find a new path focused on the American people. Greene has a history of promoting conspiracy theories and contentious claims and pushed for release of Epstein files, contributing to a break with the president.
