Greene: If McCarthy wants to make base happy, he'll 'give me a lot of power'

Firebrand Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) warned that the Republican base would be “very unhappy” if House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) does not give her more power if Republicans take control of the chamber next year.

In a New York Times Magazine profile on Monday examining Greene’s rise in influence and future, the Georgia congresswoman indicated that McCarthy would have to adopt her “a lot more aggressive” approach toward President Biden, whom she has introduced multiple articles of impeachment against.

“I think that to be the best Speaker of the House and to please the base, he’s going to give me a lot of power and a lot of leeway,” Greene said. “And if he doesn’t, they’re going to be very unhappy about it. I think that’s the best way to read that. And that’s not in any way a threat at all. I just think that’s reality.”

McCarthy, who is aiming to become Speaker in a House majority, has given the confrontational right flank of the House GOP a seat at the table as he aims to shore up support. Greene was in attendance at a House GOP “Commitment to America” midterm policy and platform rollout event in Pennsylvania last month.

You're sniffing your own farts again. If you get a lot of power it'll only be for one term.

1. What would be in her best interest would be to keep the crazy notions in her head ...

... to herself, speaking she only confirms how wacko we know she is.

I hope she continues to speak out - loud and against her own interests.

2. Keep dreaming. McCarthy is the blowjob you'll never give.

Marjorie, even though you are convenient you are mostly expendable.

Like a tube top.

3. Wouldn't she make a wonderful impeachment manager for when they go after Joe?

5. Now there is someone

with exaggerated ideas of her own importance.

6. They keep saying her rising in popularity,

Car wrecks on the highway get all eyes too. She's just a clown show that's getting views for how absurd she is.....not some political power.

7. What does she mean by wanting a lot of "leeway." ????

8. If the GOP take the house, it will be an epic disaster

There is no way the GOP me-me-me-me caucus can put a budget together. They certainly aren't landing bills on Biden's desk. All Greene would do is have show trials to get more attention. But that's what every other GOPer is desiring to do.
