Marjorie Taylor Greene Tells '60 Minutes' That It Would Shock People' to Hear How Congressional Republicans Talk About Trump in Private

""I'm going to ask you about this almost solid support [Trump] has among Republicans in Congress, Stahl began. Is there, in that support, fear? Does the support come about because they're afraid they'll get death threats? Stahl asked. I think they're terrified to step out of line and get a nasty Truth Social post on them, yes, Greene said. STAHL: And they're watching what happened to you. GREENE: Yes. STAHL: Behind the scenes, do they talk differently? GREENE: Yes. STAHL: How? GREENE: Oh, it's it would shock people. STAHL: Well, let's shock people. GREENE: Okay, I've watched many of my colleagues go from making fun of him, making fun of how he talks, making fun of me constantly for supporting him to when he won the primary in 2024. They all started excuse my language, Lesley kissing his ass and decided to put on a MAGA hat for the first time.""

""We did talk about the Epstein files, Greene said. And he was extremely angry at me that I had signed the discharge petition to release the files. I fully believe that those women deserve everything they're asking. They're asking for all of it to come out. They deserve it. And he was furious with me.""

""Greene has said she will not run for reelection after Trump called her a traitor for siding with the female victims of convicted sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein by signing the discharge petition.""

Marjorie Taylor Greene will not run for reelection after President Donald Trump called her a traitor for signing a discharge petition to release Jeffrey Epstein files. Trump reacted angrily to the release effort and warned that it would hurt people. Death threats followed Trump's insults, attributed to die‑hard MAGA supporters. Many Congressional Republicans privately criticize Trump but publicly align with him because of fear of retaliation, Truth Social posts, and threats. Several colleagues who mocked Trump before his 2024 primary later publicly embraced him and adopted MAGA branding. A full televised interview contains these accounts.
