Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (MTG) distanced herself from the president’s remarks, calling them inappropriate, People reports.
“This is a family tragedy, not about politics or political enemies,” MGT captioned a Facebook post that included a screenshot of Trump’s original message. “It’s incredibly difficult and should be met with empathy especially when it ends in murder.”
“Regardless of how you felt about Rob Reiner, this is inappropriate and disrespectful discourse about a man who was just brutally murdered,” Massie wrote on X alongside a screenshot of Trump’s post.
In addition, Republican Reps. Mike Lawler of New York and Stephanie Bice of Oklahoma – neither outspoken critics of Trump – also condemned Trump’s controversial message, marking a rare instance of dissent from within his own party.
