Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene slammed the big apple on Wednesday night, calling it “disgusting” and “filthy.” Her comments are just the latest in a war of words between the Georgia Congresswoman and New York City’s Democrat Mayor Eric Adams.
Watch Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene’s comments below:
Taylor Greene made her observations about New York City on Wednesday’s Tucker Carlson Tonight.
“Mayor Adams described New York as quote ‘his home,’ Carlson said the Taylor Greene. “How did his home look? Pretty neat and tidy?”
“His home is disgusting,” Rep. Taylor Greene responded. “I compared it to what I called Gotham City. The streets are filthy, they’re covered with people basically dying on drugs,” Greene said. “They can’t even stand up. They’re falling over. There’s so much crime in the city—I can’t comprehend how people live there. It was repulsive, it smells bad, and I think it’s a terrible place.”
The conflict between Marjorie Taylor Greene and Eric Adams began on Monday, when the New York City Mayor issued a warning to the Georgia Congresswoman and other Trump supporters who planned on protesting the President’s arraignment.
“This city is our home, not a playground for your misplaced anger,” Adams told reporters. “Although we have no specific threats, people like Marjorie Taylor Greene, who is known to spread misinformation and hate speech, as she stated she’s coming to town, while you’re in town, be on your best behavior.”
