Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene bashed President Donald Trump in an interview, accusing him of failing to live up to his campaign pledge to focus on improving the lives of Americans.
"For an 'America First' president, the No. 1 focus should have been domestic policy, and it wasn't," the Georgia Republican said on CBS News' "60 minutes."
The White House rejected Greene's accusations. "President Trump has already delivered on many of the promises he was elected to enact," spokeswoman Abigail Jackson said last night, citing immigration enforcement and inflation.
Greene, who will resign next month, also recounted a phone call in which Trump tried to persuade her to back off supporting the Epstein files release.
"He was extremely angry at me that I had signed the discharge petition to release the files," she said. "I fully believe that those women deserve everything they're asking."
Greene said that as Trump was fighting the release and calling her a traitor, he was taking meetings with controversial foreign leaders and New York's mayor-elect, Zohran Mamdani.
And because of Trump's ire, Greene said, she and her son faced numerous death threats. She said she sent the president these messages and described his response as "extremely unkind."
