Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) has had enough of her male House GOP colleagues, calling them “weak” and fearful of their female counterparts.

“While President Trump has a very strong and dominant style (he is not weak at all), many of the men here in the House are weak,” the conservative firebrand told the Washington Post on Tuesday. “There are a lot of weak Republican men and they are more afraid of strong Republican women. That’s why they always try to marginalize strong Republican women who really want to do something and really want to achieve it.”

“They are always intimidated by stronger Republican women because we mean it, we will do it and we will make them look bad,” she continued.

Greene’s takedown is fueled in part by simmering tension with House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.), who stood in the way of a House vote that could force the release of the Jeffery Epstein files, which she and some other Republican women support in defiance of Trump.

In her interview with the Post, she directed much of her outrage at the treatment of Rep. Elise Stefanik (R.N.Y.), who was pressured by Trump to remain in Congress after he named her United Nations ambassador. National security adviser Michael Waltz, who was accused of inviting a journalist to a private talk about a military attack, got the job.

“She gets tricked and he gets rewarded,” Greene said. “She’s a woman, so it was okay to do that to her in some way.”
