Republican representative: I was naive in supporting Trump

Taylor Greene explained in an interview with The New York Times that after the killing of right-wing political activist Charlie Kirk in September, a series of minor disagreements with Trump eventually led to a complete rift.

The Georgia representative said he was watching Kirk’s memorial service on television when Kirk’s wife said she forgave her husband’s killer, but then Trump came on stage and said unlike Kirk, who didn’t hate his opponents, he disagreed.

“I hate my opponents and I don’t want the best for them,” Trump said.

Insisting that “it was the absolute worst statement,” Greene said his shift from unapologetically advocating “Make America Great Again” happened at that moment, and he abandoned the teaching he’d learned — “never apologize and never own up to what you’ve done wrong.”

The post-crack vision of the Make America Great Again movement has shown signs of a widening divide, and Green finds himself at odds with the administration and Republicans; He has called the war in Gaza “genocide” and has also cast doubt on economic, health and foreign policies – which he says are not in the best interests of the working class.

Noting that I was “really naïve and out of politics,” Green added, “It was easy for me to believe naively.”

He also explained that his estrangement from Trump and the Republican leadership in Congress was complete over the vote to release the investigative files on “criminal and sex trafficker” Jeffrey Epstein.

Green said the Epstein cases “symbolize everything that’s wrong in Washington” and that it’s a story of “wealthy and powerful elites doing terrible things with impunity and women being the victims.”

He claimed that after meeting with the victims, Trump called him and shouted, “My friends will be hurt” if this case is published.

In the interview, Green said he was wrong to accuse Democrats of treason and acknowledged that he is now ostracized from both political parties.

He said: “I am like a radioactive substance.”

“Everybody’s saying, ‘He’s changed,'” Green added. I have not changed my views but I have matured. I have found depth. “I have known Washington and I have come to understand the gaps and damages of this place.”

Last Tuesday, the US Department of Justice released the third part of the documents related to Jeffrey Epstein, which includes about 30,000 pages, and among these documents, the name of US President Donald Trump can be seen.

The US Department of Justice has claimed that some of these documents contain false and controversial allegations against Trump that were submitted to the FBI just before the 2020 election. The ministry emphasized that these claims are baseless and false, and even if they had some credibility, they would have been used against Trump before.
