Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene is pushing forward with her motion to vacate House Speaker Mike Johnson, but argues it will be 'respectful.'
, but she argues her motion is more “respectful” than the vacate motion that ousted former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy.
“Yes I am prepared to do it. But the process of how I am doing it and going about it is I am being respectful of my conference and a Republican majority and I’m also being respectful of my colleagues,” Greene said.Greene decried the eight Republicans who voted to oust McCarthy in October, saying if they followed their rationale for ousting McCarthy they would have ousted Johnson “long before this.
“From what I understand, people were kind of down about it, or just ‘uh, not again’ because that three-and-a-half weeks was so painful for our conference, and a lot of these Republicans don’t ever want to rock the boat or change the status quo,” Greene told the outlet. Though Greene says she is moving forward in a “respectful” manner, she has had sharp words for her colleagues in the past, berating them during a speech in December at a Turning Point USA event in Arizona.
