Marjorie Taylor Greene’s Verbal Spin On Donald Trump Leaves Critics Dizzy
HuffPost
“I think you need to understand language," claimed the Trump acolyte, before performing some linguistic gymnastics.
Conspiracy theory-peddling Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) on Wednesday raised eyebrows with her attempted spin on Donald Trump’s reported walking back of one of his campaign vows.
The president-elect had promised to immediately “fix” and settle the Russia-Ukraine war (which Russia began with its invasion in February 2022) on his return to the White House.
“I would fix that within 24 hours, and if I win, before I get into the office, I will have that war settled,” Trump at one point even boasted to Fox News’ Sean Hannity.
But, this week, days before Trump’s return to the Oval Office, his advisers admitted it would take months to stop the fighting because the situation was more complex than Trump had talked about on the trail.
Greene defended the walk-back by claiming Trump hadn’t actually promised what he had actually promised.
