Marjorie Taylor Greene Gets Into Screaming Match with Debbie Dingell on the Capitol Steps

A group of House Democrats were gathered on the steps of the Capitol on Friday when Marjorie Taylor Greene began heckling them.

The Democrats were holding an event touting Joe Biden’s “Build Back Better” agenda, when Marjorie started in with, “You should all be ashamed.”

Dingell responds: “You should practice the basic thing you’re taught at church — respect your neighbors!”

Debbie Dingell has faced political bullying before, memorably by the Bully-In-Chief himself, Donald Trump, and has called for civility.

In December of 2019, Trump suggested at a rally in Michigan that Debbie Dingell’s recently deceased husband John might be looking up from hell, when she responded with civility and grace.

Here is Trump last night at his rally after he was impeached by the House, complaining about Debbie Dingell after all he did for her late husband John Dingell and then she voted to impeach him. He even suggests that the late Congressman is in hell-even his supporters groan. pic.twitter.com/F5xkalVZ1M

Mr. President, let’s set politics aside. My husband earned all his accolades after a lifetime of service. I’m preparing for the first holiday season without the man I love. You brought me down in a way you can never imagine and your hurtful words just made my healing much harder.

Dingell responded with more civility when Trump’s brother Robert died in 2020.

Mr. President, I am saddened to hear about the death of your brother. I know the pain of losing a loved one and the importance of family during a time like this. My prayers are with you.
