Marjorie Taylor Green unleashes MAGA meltdown over 'snake' Trump

Former Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) unleashed on Republicans and President Donald Trump on Wednesday after new inflation numbers showed that it spiked to 4.2 percent in May. In April, it was 3.8 percent. To put that in context, inflation sat at 3 percent when Trump took office in January 2025.

"Unbelievable!!" Green raged on X. "Here is exactly what Trump’s war on Iran, costing billions everyday (sic), is doing to Americans. MAGA used to call this Biden inflation and scream from the rooftops over this garbage. Not what we campaigned for. Not what people voted for."

Greene then shared a video of Trump speaking in Waco, Texas, in March 2023 to a crowd of about 15,000 people.

“Either the deep state destroys America, or we destroy the deep state," Trump said in the clip. The woman who first posted it remarked, "I still watch these Trump campaign videos and ask myself: What happened? At what point did Trump turn on us?"

"Listen to this video," Greene said.

The clip was 2:28 minutes of promises, with a musical score in the background.

"We will banish the warmongers from our government," Trump pledged. "We will drive out the globalists, and we will cast out the Communists and Marxists. We will throw off the corrupt political class. We will beat the Democrats. We will route the fake news media. We will stand up to the RINOs (Republicans In Name Only). We will defeat Joe Biden and every single Democrat."

He went on to pledge to "abolish tyranny" and "rescue freedom and liberty." Trump claimed he would make America "wealthy again" and "powerful again."

"All these promises, he told us exactly what we wanted to hear," Greene lamented. "And then he turned around and broke them all. He protected the elites, built a fortress around the swamp, endorsed all the RINOs, and became a warmonger waging wars. Trump is the very snake he warned us all about."

Trump is known to read one of his favorite poems by Oscar Brown Jr., about an injured, dying snake that a woman takes in to nurse back to health. Eventually, while the woman is clutching the snake to her heart, the snake bites her.

“'Oh shut up, silly woman,' said the reptile with a grin,
'You knew damn well I was a snake before you took me in,'" the poem reads.

Six years ago, the New York Times Opinion account produced a video claiming, "Trump's snake poem is really about him."
