GOP Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene on Tuesday called her Republican House colleague Nancy Mace 'trash' for saying Lauren Boebert's Ilhan Omar suicide bomber joke was 'disgusting'.
Greene sparked an ugly clash on Twitter when she accused the South Carolina congresswoman of being pro-abortion, told her to 'hang with your real gal pals in the Jihad Squad' and wrote 'your out of your league'.
Mace hit back by correcting the 'you're' spelling in Greene's tweet, called herself a 'pro-life fiscal conservative' and added: 'What I’m not is a religious bigot (or racist). You might want to try that over there in your little "league"'.
