Former US President Donald Trump has publicly endorsed Republican firebrand Marjorie Taylor Greene following her explosive accusations against Democratic stalwart Nancy Pelosi regarding stock market dealings. The controversy has reignited debates over ethics and transparency in Washington.
The Allegations
Greene, known for her provocative statements, recently claimed that Pelosi and her husband engaged in questionable stock trades that allegedly benefited from insider political knowledge. While Greene provided no concrete evidence, her remarks have sparked widespread discussion about potential conflicts of interest among lawmakers.
Trump's Intervention
Trump weighed in on the matter during a recent rally, praising Greene as "a patriot fighting against corruption" while lambasting Pelosi as "the queen of insider trading." His comments have further polarized an already divided political landscape.
