- Marjorie Taylor Greene slammed President Trump on Wednesday, declaring the United States “IN DECLINE” and blaming his policies for inflation.
- Greene warned that Trump’s war on Iran is “costing billions everyday,” linking the conflict directly to Americans’ economic hardship.
- Greene noted that the MAGA movement previously labeled inflation as a Biden problem, highlighting a shift in partisan blame.
- Greene wrote the criticism, framing the Iran war as a driver of the nation’s economic pain.
Why it matters: Greene’s attack shifts the inflation blame onto Trump and highlights the Iran war’s daily cost, giving her a platform to challenge the administration and exposing an intra‑GOP dispute over foreign policy and economics, while pointing to the war’s economic cost as a factor harming Americans daily.
