Former Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) called out one-time ally President Donald Trump for abandoning the core promises behind his “Make America Great Again” movement. “MAGA is, I think, people are realizing, it was all a lie,” she told YouTube host Kim Iversen. “It was a big lie for the people.”

The Trump administration, she said, is all about serving “big, big donors,” including foreign countries and large corporations, with many funneling cash to Trump’s PACs and pet projects such as his White House ballroom to win favor.

“And if they’re donating to all these things, those are the people that get the special favors, they get the government contracts, they get the pardons or somebody they love or one of their friends gets a pardon,” she said. Greene wasn’t willing to give Trump a pass by blaming advisors or others in his inner circle.

“People always think, ‘Oh, it’s his staff.’ They want to blame everyone around him,” she said. “There may be a point where people have to come to grips with this is Donald Trump.” Greene said she was once a “true believer” in Trump’s MAGA movement. Indeed, she was not only a vocal supporter but was frequently by his side at campaign rallies and other events.
