‘I’m Sorry’: Marjorie Taylor Greene Apologizes When Confronted By CNN’s Dana Bash About Political Rhetoric

.... “Obviously, any threats to your safety are completely unacceptable,” Bash said. “But we have seen these kinds of attacks or criticism from the President at other people. It’s not new. And, with respect, I haven’t heard you speak out about it until it was directed at you.”

“I think that’s fair criticism,” Greene said — in a shocking admission. “And I would like to say humbly I’m sorry for taking part in the toxic politics. It’s very bad for our country. It’s something I’ve thought about a lot, especially since Charlie Kirk was assassinated, is that we .. I’m only responsible for myself and my own words and actions. And I am going — I am committed — and I’ve been working on this a lot lately — to put down the knives in politics. I really just want to see people be kind to one another. And we need to figure out a new path forward that is focused on the American people, because, as Americans, no matter what side of the aisle we’re on, we have far more in common than we have differences.” ....

“So, just to put a button on this, you regret the things that you have said and posted in the past?” Bash said. “The Facebook post that was taken down of you in 2020 holding a gun alongside the Squad, encouraging people to go on the offense against the socialists, liking a tweet of somebody calling for the execution of Nancy Pelosi and former President Obama, just examples?

“Well, Dana, as you know and many people know, I addressed that back in 2021,” Greene said. “And, of course, I never want to cause any harm or anything bad for anyone. So that was addressed back then. And I very much stand by my words I said then.And I stand by my words today. I think America needs to come together and end all the toxic, dangerous rhetoric and divide. And I’m leading the way with my own example, and I hope that President Trump can do the same. ....

‘I Love This Woman!’ Pro-MAGA Reporter Brian Glenn Goes to Bat for Girlfriend Marjorie Taylor Greene Amid Feud With Trump

A pro-MAGA reporter caught in the middle of a feud between President Donald Trump and Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) is publicly going to bat for the latter. ....

The nasty spat between Trump and Greene has put Glenn in an awkward spot. Glenn has been nothing short of a cheerleader for the president — often getting called on during White House press engagements to deliver fawning praise or to tee Trump up for a rant about a political enemy. ....

Glenn went on to mix it up with Pro-Trump activist Laura Loomer — who herself has been embroiled in a battle with Rep. Greene. Loomer started the heated exchange by responding to Glenn’s X post about Greene. ....

will be in peril. The economy is going to be everything, and the outlook is bad bad bad. But her district is so R-safe the race comes down to the primary.

By parting ways with Trump/MAGA on the grounds that they have failed/lost their way she can claim to be the true representative of those positions/values. So voters don't have to admit their ideas were wrong, they just got failed by a fickle/misguided person in the president.

I don't know if it is gonna work, but Trump's coattails have always been smaller than he thinks. It may depend on whether the alternative candidate(s) start with any name recognition or not.

No need for me to decide how/whether sincere she is. Positioning herself.

She tried to perform what passes for steadfastness in the very inconsistent MAGA ideology, an ideology that is ALWAYS based on hurting others
