POTUS slams ‘Traitor’ congresswoman for appearing on 60 Minutes

President Donald Trump continued his feud with outgoing Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., in the wake of her appearance on 60 Minutes this week with Lesley Stahl, labeling her a “Traitor” for her comments and slamming the network for airing the segment.  

“The only reason Marjorie ‘Traitor’ Brown (Green turns Brown under stress!) went BAD is that she was JILTED by the President of the United States (Certainly not the first time she has been jilted!). Too much work, not enough time, and her ideas are, NOW, really BAD – She sort of reminds me of a Rotten Apple!” the president wrote on Truth Social.

In November, the Georgia congresswoman announced her intent to resign from her House seat effective January 2026, blindsiding many supporters. This also came after several months of Greene’s criticism of President Trump on issues like foreign policy and the Epstein files.

“Marjorie is not AMERICA FIRST or MAGA, because nobody could have changed her views so fast, and her new views are those of a very dumb person,” the president continued. “That was proven last night when washed up, Trump hating, 60 Minutes ‘correspondent,’ Lesley Stahl, who still owes me an apology from when she attacked me on the show (with serious conviction!), that Hunter Biden’s LAPTOP FROM HELL was produced by Russia, not Hunter himself (TOTALLY PROVEN WRONG!), interviewed a very poorly prepared Traitor, who in her confusion made many really stupid statements.”

In a bid to separate herself from President Trump and his platform, Rep. Greene told 60 Minutes this week, “MAGA is President Trump’s phrase. That’s his political policies. I call myself America First.”

She insinuated on 60 Minutes that because of President Trump’s criticisms of her, she and some members of her family have received death threats. “After President Trump called me a traitor, I got a pipe bomb threat on my house. And then I got several direct death threats on my son,” she said.

Rep. Greene said she sent those direct threats to the president, and she claimed that his response “wasn’t very nice.”

“It was extremely unkind,” she said.

President Donald Trump has a longstanding history of going toe-to-toe with his opponents, so his harsh rhetoric toward Greene, who is leaving Congress early and therefore diminishing the Republican majority, is hardly a surprise to those who have followed the president’s political career.

“My real problem with the show, however, wasn’t the low IQ traitor, it was that the new ownership of 60 Minutes, Paramount, would allow a show like this to air,” President Trump said on Truth Social.

He added, “THEY ARE NO BETTER THAN THE OLD OWNERSHIP, who just paid me millions of Dollars for FAKE REPORTING about your favorite President, ME! Since they bought it, 60 Minutes has actually gotten WORSE!”
