Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene again criticized President Donald Trump as she continues to break with MAGA following her announcement that she will retire from Congress in January.
In an interview with 60 Minutes, Greene was asked if there is "fear" in Republicans' support of Trump. She claimed many are "terrified to step out of line and get a nasty Truth Social post," in reference to Trump's social media platform, from which he mostly posts.
Greene was then asked if Republicans "talk differently" about Trump "behind the scenes." She said they do, and that she "watched many of my colleagues go from making fun of him, of me, constantly for supporting him, to, when he won his primary, kissing his a-- and wearing a MAGA hat."

Greene has repeatedly slammed the administration since breaking with President Donald Trump over the release of the Epstein files.
"I was called a traitor by a man that I fought for 6 years for. I gave him my loyalty for free. I've never owed him anything. Let me tell you what a traitor is. A traitor is an American that serves foreign countries," Greene said earlier this month. She claimed to receive numerous death threats since breaking with MAGA.
Greene has also said she could get killed in office for her stance. Responding to criticism from conservative activist Mike Cernovich, who said she should serve her full term, Greene floated the possibility of being "assassinated like our friend Charlie Kirk."
Greene is one of many lawmakers who won't seek reelection in the next election. A recent report by Axios claimed that House Republicans are also considering leaving office soon as infighting and external threats mount. The outlet noted that 41 lawmakers have made such announcements. After it came out, GOP Rep. Troy Nehls said he won't seek reelection either.
Nehls said in a statement late November that he made the decision to focus on his family and "return home after this Congress."
"Before making this decision, I called President Trump personally to let him know of my plans. President Trump has always been a strong ally for our district and a true friend, and I wanted him to hear it from me first. Serving this country in the military, serving our community in law enforcement, and serving this district in Congress has been the honor of my life. Thank you for your trust, your friendship and your prayers," Nehls said.
