MTG orders Donald Trump to drop to his knees and ‘beg’ for forgiveness over his unholy Easter message
‘Our President is not a Christian.’
Marjorie Taylor Greene, a figure once known for her staunch support of President Donald Trump, recently delivered a sharp rebuke to the president, asserting he needs to “fall on his knees and beg forgiveness from God” for what she labeled an “evil” Easter Sunday post directed at Iran. This strong statement marks a significant shift from her previous alignment, highlighting a growing rift in a relationship that once seemed unshakeable.
According to HuffPost, Greene didn’t mince words, extending her condemnation to everyone in the president’s administration who claims to be Christian, urging them to stop “worshipping the President” and instead “intervene in Trump’s madness.” Her fiery remarks, shared on X, came in response to expletive-laden messages Trump posted on Truth Social over the holiday weekend.
Trump’s post on Easter Sunday told Iran to open the Strait of Hormuz or “you’ll be living in Hell,” adding, “JUST WATCH! Praise be to Allah.” This particular message, with its blend of threats and religious invocation, seems to have been the primary catalyst for Greene’s public outrage. She included a screenshot of this post in her X message, emphasizing its timing on Easter morning.
Greene framed Trump’s comments as a moral and spiritual failing
The president had also issued an earlier threat on Saturday, reminding Iran of an April 6 deadline he had set for them to either “MAKE A DEAL or OPEN UP THE HORMUZ STRAIT.” He warned that “Time is running out — 48 hours before all Hell will reign down on them.”
These aggressive statements, made during a period traditionally associated with peace and reflection for many Christians, clearly struck a nerve with Greene. She firmly stated that President Trump has “gone insane” and, in her view, all of his supporters are “complicit” in his actions.
While she made it clear she wasn’t “defending Iran,” Greene offered a different perspective on the conflict. She argued that the Strait of Hormuz is closed because the United States and Israel initiated “unprovoked war against Iran” based on what she described as “the same nuclear lies they’ve been telling for decades.” According to Greene, these “lies” suggest that “any moment Iran would develop a nuclear weapon.”
She then pointed out, “You know who has nuclear weapons? Israel.” Greene contended that Israel is “more than capable of defending themselves without the US having to fight their wars, kill innocent people and children, and pay for it.” Her criticism extended to Trump’s specific threats to bomb “power plants and bridges,” which she believes would only harm the Iranian people—the very individuals Trump had previously claimed he was freeing.
Greene’s Easter message was steeped in religious conviction, asserting that “on Easter, of all days,” Christians should remember Jesus’s command to “love one another and forgive one another — even our enemies.” She directly challenged Trump’s Christian faith, declaring, “Our President is not a Christian and his words and actions should not be supported by Christians.”
She said Christians should urge Trump to pursue peace and not escalate war
The former U.S Representative went further, suggesting that Christians within the Trump administration “should be pursuing peace” and “urging the President to make peace,” rather than “escalating war that is hurting people.” This perspective starkly contrasts with President Trump’s aggressive rhetoric and actions towards Iran.
Her condemnation wasn’t just about religious principles; it also touched on political promises. Greene stated, “This NOT what we promised the American people when they overwhelmingly voted in 2024, I know, I was there more than most.” She concluded her passionate plea by declaring, “This is not making America great again, this is evil.”
This sentiment from a once-loyal ally underscores the depth of her disagreement with the president’s current approach to foreign policy and his public statements. Despite Greene’s strong criticisms, Trump’s former campaign manager, Bill Stepien, offered a defense of the president’s unique communication style. Appearing on a Sunday morning news program, Stepien acknowledged Trump’s unconventional methods.
He explained, “This is the first war fought in this age of social media with this president. I think he does things very differently.” Stepien suggested that Trump operates “in his own way — different than Biden, different than Obama,” implying that his social media posts are simply a reflection of this distinct approach to leadership and international relations, playing out in real-time.
