Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) doubled down on her comments about being a Christian nationalist on the Conservative Political Action Convention in Dallas on Friday.
Last month, the Republican said, “We wish to be the birthday celebration of nationalism and I’m a Christian, and I say it proudly, we should be Christian nationalists.”
Round that time, a meme circulated online purported to point out Greene quoting Adolf Hitler talking about Nazism being a Christian motion. It wasn’t true, as Greene did not quote the Nazi dictator.
On Friday, Greene was requested for her response to the topic at CPAC.
“I take that very seriously,” she answered. “Ever on account that I’ve turn out to be a member of Congress, I’ve been the most attacked member of Congress in United States history and I’m appalled by it.”
The congresswoman then addressed the content of her comments about Christian nationalism.
“But once I said that I’m a Christian nationalist, I’ve nothing to be ashamed of, because that’s what most American citizens are,” Greene stated. “We’re happy with our religion and we adore our united states of america. And to be able to make American nice again. When we lean into biblical rules, you already know, is there anything improper with loving God and loving others? No.”
Greene’s claim that “most” American citizens are Christian nationalists simply has no foundation.
She brought, “So, I don’t back down from these comments, but I denounce the lying media.”
As an ideology, Christian nationalism seeks to “promote theocratic insurance policies” and the commingling of government and the Christian faith. It is a doctrine that is diametrically antagonistic to the usa’s founding rules.
