“Nobody cares what Marjorie Taylor Greene says or thinks.”
After Greene sent a letter to Republicans on Tuesday laying out her reasoning for ousting Johnson, one GOP congressman told Axios that “most people are exhausted” by Greene’s antics, adding, “Don’t bother us. Airing your grievances is unnecessary.” Representative Larry Bucshon said he didn’t plan to read the letter or support Greene. Representative Mike Carey called the letter “worthless” and Greene’s threats “absolutely ridiculous.
She’s grandstanding, and she wants attention.” While that may be the case, as my colleague Eric Lutz pointed out last week, “Matt Gaetz’s pursuit to oust Kevin McCarthy began as grandstanding too; it ended with McCarthy losing his gavel and giving up his seat.” And even if Greene is unsuccessful, Republicans fear her campaign is still damaging to the party, which looked like a total joke last fall as it repeatedly failed to elect a new Speaker.
