House Republican Marjorie Taylor Greene has come under fire from GOP Senator Thom Tillis who branded her “a total waste of time” and “a horrible leader” in an interview with CNN’s Lauren Fox on Tuesday.
Referring to the Georgia Republican he said: “I think she is uninformed, she is a total waste of time, and I’m embarrassed to have actually lived geographically in her district at one time before she was there.
“She is a horrible leader. She is dragging our brand down. She, not the Democrats, are the biggest risk to us getting back to a majority.”
Greene was one of the most vocal Republican critics of a $95 billion foreign aid package which passed the Senate on Tuesday and is expected to be signed into law by President Biden on Wednesday. She has since called for the removal of House Speaker Mike Johnson who backed the package, which includes military aid to Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan.
