'Wasn't even thinking about her': MAGA lawmakers shade former colleague at SOTU
WASHINGTON — A pair of MAGA lawmakers shaded one of their former colleagues at President Donald Trump's State of the Union address on Tuesday night.
Raw Story asked MAGA Reps. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) and Byron Donalds (R-FL) whether they were missing former Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) ahead of the speech. Greene made a name for herself at former President Joe Biden's State of the Union addresses by heckling the former president.
"Wasn't even thinking about her," Boebert told Raw Story.
"Oh, c'mon!" Donalds responded.
Greene retired from Congress earlier this year after she and Trump had a falling out over the administration's handling of the Jeffrey Epstein files. Greene claimed Trump told her he was protecting some of the people mentioned in the files because he didn't want to see his friends get hurt.
Greene was also one of the lawmakers who pushed for a bill to force the Trump administration to release all of the Epstein files in its possession. She held a press conference with multiple Epstein survivors, which caused Trump to lash out at her.
