Marjorie Taylor Greene Snaps at TV Host Over Trump Question Live-on-Air
Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene speaking to reporters at the US Capitol on May 7, 2024, in Washington, DC. Greene claimed the FBI were "were planning to assassinate" Donald Trump in an X post though this has been strongly denied by the agency.
Marjorie Taylor Greene had a tense exchange with an Australian TV host after being asked whether she'll accept the 2024 presidential election result if Donald Trump loses.
Appearing on Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) current affairs show '7.30' to discuss the release of WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange, Greene was also asked about November's upcoming presidential vote.
The host questioned: "If it doesn't go your way, if Biden wins, will you accept the result?"
A visibly irritated Greene replied: "Again what does this have to do with Julian Assange? That's what we're supposed to be talking.
She continued: "What network is that? What is this ABC in Australia? Is she getting her marching orders from the Democrat Party? Is this what you decided to come up with today?"
A clip of the exchange was posted on X by MeidasTouch, a self-styled "pro-democracy" media outlet, where it received more than 850 retweets and 175,000 views.
