MTG Calls Matt Gaetz a “Destructionist” For Refusing To Vote For McCarthy As Speaker

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene has burned another bidge as she continues to push for minority House Speaker Kevin McCarthy to be the next Speaker of the House.

In her latest Press Conference Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene stated “If my friends in the Freedom Caucus, Matt Gaetz and others .. they’re proving to the country that they don’t care about doing the right thing for America .. they’re just destructionists. That’s why Republicans fail, and I’m really tired of it.

As the time for a vote for House Speaker gets closer it appears Kevin McCarthy doesn’t have the votes needed to make him the new House Speaker.

In response to MTG’s statements Gaetzs went on record saying “If you want to drain the swamp, you cannot put the biggest alligator in charge of the exercise.”
