Marjorie Taylor Greene Suggests Butler Assassination Attempt Was a Hoax

Elizabeth Weibel 18 Apr 2026

Former Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) shared a post that suggested the assassination attempt on President Donald Trump’s life in Butler, Pennsylvania, was a hoax.

In her post, Greene responded to the original post, questioning why Trump “of all people” was not “leading the charge” to find out the truth about shooter Thomas Matthew Crooks. On July 13, 2024, Trump was shot by a “bullet that pierced the upper part” of his right ear, after Crooks opened fire from the rooftop of a nearby building.

“Extremely important post worth the read and consideration,” Greene wrote. “Corey Comperatore’s family deserves to know the truth about Matthew Crooks and what happened in Butler on July 13, 2024.”

“President Trump, of all people, should be leading the charge,” Greene added. “Why isn’t he? That’s the question.”

The post, which Greene shared, came from someone who described herself as “a long time Trump supporter,” and a national delegate. The lady, Trisha Hope, described hearing Trump speak at the Republican National Convention, and how Trump stated that people had been asking him to tell them “what happened.” At the time, Trump stated that he would tell them what happened, adding that they would “never hear it” from him “a second time because it’s too painful to tell.”

“At the convention of course there was massive concern for President Trump the consensus was it was divine intervention that saved Trump and we were all incredibly grateful,” Hope wrote. “On the night Trump spoke, he had the ear patch on and many in the crowd did also. As Trump begin to speak, he started with this: ‘So many people have asked me what happened. Tell us what happened, please. And therefore, I will tell you exactly what happened, and you’ll never hear it from me a second time, because it’s actually too painful to tell.'”

I'm not quite sure what continues to eat away at her, but she seems to go out of her way to stir the pot.  She's making it sound llke she knows more than she's revealed? 

To suggest that the assassination attempt was a hoax, would mean that someone was a pretty darn good shot to nick Trump's ear; unfortunately, more than one person suffered on that day.  So -- hoax Marjorie??

She's a selfish media vampire that needs constant attention to survive.

If she doesn't get that, she withers and dies.

Ok maybe now she's jumped the shark...

She is just one of many people I once considered based, and now think have gone round some bend.
The question is, who/what got to them?
Any common venues?
MK ULTRA?
Hypnosis?
???

The thing about people who are members of a cult is that, even after they.leave the cult, they still have the personality that led them to join a cult in the first place: strong need for affiliation and very highly gullible. MTG was a look when she was MAGA and she is still a look today.

Washington Examiner columnist Salena Zito was in the front row that day, just a few feet from Trump. She wrote a book about it.
She does not look kindly on deniers like Greene, Carlson, Owens, and writer Joyce Carol Oates:

This is beyond vile. Someone's son, someone's husband, someone's father died right in front of me. The bullets flew over my head. Two men were gravely wounded for weeks in the ICU.
Shame on you Joyce Carol Oates if you have a soul at all I hope God gives you grace & shows mercy

(to his credit, T***p has kept very quiet about the "assassination attempt" in Butler PA.  likely, he is embarrassed about its staginess & doesn't want to draw any more attention to it.  among numerous theories is the theory that it was "staged" but not rehearsed & much went wrong, not least that it looked so awkward, amateurish.)

MTG is treading on the same territory that got Alex Jones hammered over the Sandy Hook school shooting event in CT. There were other victims. Plenty of images of the shooter on the roof. While Trump will likely ignore her on this, they may not.
