Outgoing Republican Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene stated that many Republican colleagues privately mocked Donald Trump before publicly supporting him after he secured the 2024 presidential nomination. Greene made these claims in an interview with CBS's 60 Minutes. She also discussed receiving death threats, initially from the left, which she says intensified from the right after she criticized Trump's handling of Epstein-related files. Greene claims Trump labeled her a "traitor" and showed no sympathy when she reported threats against her son. She attributes Republicans' public support for Trump to a fear of being targeted by him on social media. Greene is leaving Congress in January.
