Marjorie Taylor Greene, in feud with Nancy Mace on Islamophobia, launches personal attack over abortion

By Rachel Pannett
Today at 3:06 a.m. EST

House Republicans Nancy Mace and Marjorie Taylor Greene are in a public and highly personal feud over abortion and religion, amid the ongoing fallout from Islamophobic remarks by some GOP lawmakers.

Greene (Ga.) denounced her colleague as “the trash in the GOP conference” — appearing to accuse Mace of being aligned with Democrats on religious and abortion issues, rather than her own party.

She wrote on Twitter Tuesday that Mace is never attacked by Democrats or moderate Republicans “because she is not conservative, she’s pro-abort.”

Mace (S.C.), who is a rape survivor, supports restrictions on abortion. Greene’s suggestion that her colleague was “pro-abort” appears to stem from how as a state representative, Mace championed exceptions to an abortion ban for victims of rape and incest.

1. Good, let them beat up eachother.

2. What an ass she is.

She truly seems to enjoy the limelight she has been given. Positive attention, negative attention, it's all the same to her.

The shrinks are having a field day with her I betcha.

3. Just curious?

Why do we give these clowns any bandwidth?

8. That is always a good question.

I think this is close to a fight between two bullies few liked as in High School. I am certain both can come up with something that is offensive to almost everyone.

19. Because they have power and impact policy?

20. That's a fair question.

I was up early, at four a.m., and I couldn't get back to sleep. I saw this and thought it worthy of posting.

Thanks for writing.

4. I hope she's starting a fight between Republicans and Democrats over abortion.

I want to have that fight. Most Americans want abortion to remain legal. A dispute over abortion would be a great argument to have during next year's election. We need to constantly point out their radical views and show that the Democrats are the rational ones.

10. Use of the phrase "J Squad" should be labeled a hate crime. There should be a fine imposed for

any sitting member who uses it...

17. It's time for kevin to go get his balls back...

If he REALLY wants to be Speaker, he will drop a big ass hammer down on her head. If he wants it, they need to FEAR him, before they respect him.

It wont happen.

18. Dear mtg...it's "you're".
