Marjorie Taylor Greene Insults Trump Calls Him What?

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) sharply criticized President Trump on Tuesday after he highlighted the number of American military deaths during the conflict with Iran, calling his social media post “stupid.”

Trump compared casualty figures from several U.S. military conflicts in a Truth Social post, writing: “Afghanistan War: 20 years, 2,000 DEAD. Iraq War: 9 years, 4,600 DEAD. Vietnam War: 19 years and 5 months, 58,220 DEAD. Korean War: 3 years and 1 month, 36,574 DEAD. Venezuela War: 1 day, 0 DEAD. Iran Military Conflict: 4 months, 18 DEAD.”

Greene responded on X later that day, saying she viewed the post as celebrating the deaths of American troops.

“Trump is bragging about killing 18 US soldiers. That’s how I read this stupid post,” Greene wrote. “The ‘peace president’ went to war and is killing and wounding our troops,” before ending her message with an expletive directed at the president.

Greene, once among Trump’s most outspoken allies in Congress, has increasingly broken with the president over the conflict in Iran, which is approaching the five-month mark.

Over the weekend, she also criticized Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth after he honored U.S. service members killed during Iranian strikes in Jordan.

“Godspeed, heroes. Their sacrifice only stiffens our resolve,” Hegseth wrote on X.

Greene rejected the characterization of the deaths as a sacrifice.

“‘Sacrifice??’ What the f— are you talking about?? They did not willingly sacrifice themselves,” Greene wrote. She argued the troops were killed because of a war being fought “on behalf of a foreign country, Israel.”

The war with Iran has become increasingly controversial as casualties have mounted and energy prices have climbed. The conflict has contributed to higher oil and gasoline prices, added pressure to the global economy and complicated U.S. relations with allies and partners in the region.

Recent public opinion polls have found growing opposition among Americans to continued U.S. involvement in the conflict.

According to AAA, the national average price for a gallon of gasoline has risen to about $4.06, up from roughly $3.15 at the same time last year.
