Marjorie Taylor Greene slammed for showing up at Fulton County Jail to support Donald Trump
FULTON, GEORGIA: US representative Marjorie Taylor Greene, or as she is infamously known, MTG has traveled from Milwaukee, Wisconsin to Fulton, Georgia, to show her continued support for former president Donald Trump.
In Wisconsin, MTG was present as Trump’s official surrogate, and in Georgia, to show her support for Trump before his arrest.
According to CNBC, Trump was booked at Fulton County Jail as of August 24 on Thursday.
MTG was also present outside the Fulton County Jail and took to X, formerly known as Twitter, to express her support for Trump, for which she was relentlessly mocked by the internet.
MTG would vote for Donald Trump from jail if she had to
MTG posted a video of her arrival at Fulton County Jail in a red top and black trousers as she waved at Donald Trump’s supporters who were also present.
Several people chanted “MTG” as she arrived.
In her tweet to show her support, MTG wrote, “Tonight, I joined hundreds of Patriots at the Fulton County Jail to support President Trump during his persecution by Communist Atlanta DA Fani Willis. I will never stop supporting President Trump and I will vote for him from jail if I have to!”
