Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene praises Nancy Pelosi’s effectiveness while criticizing GOP leadership for failing to deliver on America First promises.
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., praised Rep. Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., after the former Speaker of the House announced she was retiring from Congress.
Pelosi announced on Thursday that she will be retiring when her term ends and will not seek reelection. When asked by CNN’s Wolf Blitzer for her reaction, Greene said her immediate reaction was that she believes in term limits but praised the accomplishments of Pelosi’s four-decade career in the House.
« I’m very impressed at her ability to get things done », Greene said. « I wish we could get things done for our party like Nancy Pelosi was able to deliver for her party. So, I wish her well in her retirement, but I would like to see people exit Washington a lot sooner rather than wait until their eighties. »
PELOSI CALLS TRUMP ‘VILE CREATURE’ and ‘WORST THING ON THE FACE OF THE EARTH’
As the government shutdown continues to drag on, Greene has been calling out leadership of her own party for failing to enforce the « America First » agenda.
Republicans were routed by their Democratic opponents in multiple elections this week, and some GOP leaders have downplayed these as exceptional cases.
