Former Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene claims that one of her former co-workers secretly “hates” Donald Trump.
In an April 29 interview, Marjorie accused Rep. Mike Lawler of frequently mocking Trump during the 2024 campaign. The former congresswoman, who no longer supports Trump, alleged that Mike’s support of Trump was “fake.” Additionally, she claims it was motivated by political convenience.
“I remember specifically when Mike Lawler came in,” she told Tucker Carlson. “He was welcomed in by everybody. I mean, he was propped up as the guy we have to fight for. [His district] … was a very close district … We were told it was so important to win this district.”
Marjorie claims Congressman Mike Lawler “made fun of” Trump’s voice
Although the former Trump supporter said that Mike had strong party support early on, she “learned a lot about him very quickly.”
“Mike Lawler is a Catholic, [but] was heavily supported and funded by the Jewish community, [as well as] by all the Christian Zionists,” she explained. “He instantly had more support from pretty much every fundraising mechanism that there is in Washington, D.C. that supports Republicans. He had more help than I could have ever dreamed of having, ever in my entire political career.”
“And I was like, ‘Wow, what is going on with this guy?'” MGT continued. “[He] came into the House of Representatives, completely bought and paid for by all of the establishment donor class that had supported him. [But] he hated Donald Trump, made fun of him constantly, mimicked him, making fun of his voice. He used to … come and find me on the House floor and make fun of me for supporting Donald Trump. This was in the four years before Trump got elected as president again in 2024.”
He was “so against all the things that Republican voters care about,” Marjorie initially “thought he was a Democrat.”
Despite his initial attitude, once Trump won the 2024 primary, Mike adjusted his attitude to appear completely loyal. “I saw this unbelievable change in him,” Marjorie said. “All of a sudden, Mike Lawler and I started joking. I started calling him MAGA Mike Lawler, because he was all of a sudden becoming Trump’s biggest supporter.”
