McConnell says Taylor Greene's embrace of conspiracy theories a 'cancer' to GOP, country

FACT CHECK: Has Mitch McConnell Blocked Every Bill Intended To Prevent Foreign Interference In The 2020 Election? | Check Your Fact

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) on Monday blasted Georgia GOP Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene’s embrace of “loony lies and conspiracy theories” as a “cancer for the Republican Party.”

“Somebody who’s suggested that perhaps no airplane hit the Pentagon on 9/11, that horrifying school shootings were pre-staged, and that the Clintons crashed JFK Jr.’s airplane is not living in reality,” McConnell said in a statement first shared with The Hill. “This has nothing to do with the challenges facing American families or the robust debates on substance that can strengthen our party.”

McConnell didn't mention Greene by name in his three-sentence statement, but his rare, scathing remarks about a freshman GOP lawmaker from the other chamber suggests he recognizes the potential damage her violent rhetoric and bizarre conspiracy theories could inflict on congressional Republicans as they try to take back both the House and Senate in next year’s midterms.

Greene responded on Twitter, writing that "the real cancer for the Republican Party is weak Republicans who only know how to lose gracefully."

      David Schoen is a great lawyer who has successfully defended some really difficult cases in the past. I know Trump is in good hands now.

    With a spinless McConnell in charge of the Senate, I am not surprised that the Republican Party lost the majority. Boot him out and get a real Republican into the post, who will uphold his pledge of allegiance to the country and therefore to Trump, just like the fine Marjorie Taylor Greene does.

      I am afraid it might be too late.
