The MAGA representative is continuing her break with the Republican Party—and the president himself.

MAGA Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene is still one of the few GOP members to rebuke Trump and his lies in any meaningful way.

Taylor Greene spoke freely in an interview with CNN’s Kaitlan Collins on Thursday night. “The president says there’s virtually no inflation, and that grocery prices are going down,” Collins asked the Georgia representative. “Do you agree with him on that?”

“No, I go to the grocery store myself. Grocery prices remain high. Energy prices are high. My electricity bills are higher here in Washington, D.C., at my apartment, and they’re also higher at my house in Rome, Georgia, higher than they were a year ago,” MTG said. “Affordability is a problem, and I’m a mom. My kids are 22, 26, and 28. That’s the generation I worry about the most, and they’re having a very hard time.”

      My first thought after this was in fact ‘Oh shit, MTG really is going to run for president isn’t she’.

      Still fucks with my head when she says things that make sense. Are we sure she didn’t have a stroke or something?

      I don’t think that will happen. I’m getting the impression people don’t like her because a crazy mean idiot - more than what MAGA can stomach.

      She’d bow and lick at Trumps feet and even he dodged her.

      Her 15 minutes are over. This is her last gasp.
