MTG says Evangelical pastors treated Trump like Jesus: 'It was so disgusting'

One of President Donald Trump's strongest supporters-turned-critics is suggesting that Evangelical pastors have treated the president like Jesus, reiterating her belief that Trump does not have an authentic Christian faith.
Former Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., appeared on an episode of "The Tim Pool Show" published Sunday, where they discussed the fallout from the 2026 midterm elections, which saw Democrats take control of the U.S. House of Representatives and Senate.
Greene, 52, was one of Trump's most outspoken allies in the House but broke with the president over his handling of the Epstein files and resigned from office earlier this year.
The conversation touched on Greene's relationship with Trump and what caused it to deteriorate. Pool noted that Greene was "the biggest Trump ally," and she agreed.
"The Democrats, the liberals, they came after you. They kicked you off a committee for something you didn't even do in Congress," Pool added. "And when it came time for you to give … Trump the honest advice he needed to hear, he says: 'Get out of my face, you're a traitor.'"
Pool claimed that "when Trump surrounds himself with people who just sniff his farts, he's going to do bad things, wrong things and he's going to get obliterated." Greene offered a similar analysis, lamenting that Trump's closest advisers "all stood behind him like clapping trained baby seals."
"Anything he said, they were just back there like, 'Yes, Mr. President, you're the greatest.' 'Oh my gosh, we love you.' 'There's no one like you,'" she added.
Greene took issue with the view of several conservative Evangelical pastors who believe that "Donald Trump is anointed by God" and "God gave us Donald Trump."
Greene alleged that Evangelical pastors were treating the president "like he's literally Jesus reincarnated."
"It was so disgusting," she said.
Pool mentioned the meme Trump shared earlier this year that depicts him as having miraculous healing powers. When Pool condemned the social media post as a "meme of himself as Jesus," Greene remarked that she "couldn't take it."
Greene pushed back on Trump's explanation, as Pool summarized it, that he "thought it was a doctor." She countered: "No, he does think he's God, and he loved that, and he knew what that meme was, but he's just a liar."
Greene's appearance on "The Tim Pool Show" is not the first time the former lawmaker has questioned Trump's faith.
After Trump spoke at slain conservative activist Charlie Kirk's funeral last year and praised the Turning Point USA founder as someone who "did not hate his opponents" and "wanted the best for them," the president said his philosophy was different from Kirk's: "That's where I disagreed with Charlie. I hate my opponent. And I don't want the best for them."
"That was absolutely the worst statement," Greene told The New York Times. "It just shows where his heart is."
Greene contrasted Trump's insistence that he did not want the best for his opponents with the forgiveness offered by Kirk's widow, Erika, to her husband's shooter.
"That's the difference, with her having a sincere Christian faith, and proves that he does not have any faith," Greene added.
Greene was one of many who spoke out after Trump issued an Easter Message on Truth Social directed at Iran that included an expletive and used the term "Praise be to Allah" to refer to God.
"On Easter morning, this is what President Trump posted," she wrote in an X post. "Everyone in his administration that claims to be a Christian needs to fall on their knees and beg forgiveness from God and stop worshipping the President and intervene in Trump's madness. I know all of you and him and he has gone insane, and all of you are complicit."
"On Easter, of all days, we as Christians should be reminded that the son of God died and rose from the grave so that we can be forgiven once and for all of our sins. Jesus commanded us to love one another and forgive one another. Even our enemies," Greene continued. "Our President is not a Christian and his words and actions should not be supported by Christians."
