MTG Unloads On Lauren Boebert: She’s ‘Nothing But Drama,’ ‘Not Serious,’ Does Not Show ‘Leadership’

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) slammed Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) in fiery remarks that she gave during an interview about Boebert’s actions surrounding the vote for House Speaker.

Greene’s remarks come as 20 Republican lawmakers have held out on backing Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) for House Speaker while more than 200 Republicans continue to back him.

“I think the American people, no matter how you vote, are sick and tired of drama and this is nothing but drama,” Greene said. “We are on multiple days now with multiple candidates from this group, so I’m not sure how Lauren Boebert on one hand can demand so much out of Kevin McCarthy, but then demand nothing out of someone else and be willing to vote for them to be Speaker.”

“That’s not serious,” she continued. “I don’t think that’s leadership, and I really see it as more obstruction than progress.”
