Marjorie Taylor Greene, a prominent Republican congresswoman, is leaving Capitol Hill after five years. Her constituents in Georgia are divided on whether her time in office was worth it. Some, like Jackie Harling, chair of the local Republican Party, view Greene as a "fighter" who effectively represented their views. Others, like independent Heath Patterson, are less convinced, citing a lack of tangible benefits for the district.
Greene's career was marked by her unapologetic stance on conspiracy theories and her willingness to criticize President Donald Trump. Initially, her trajectory mirrored Trump's rise to power, but a schism developed when she began speaking out against the president. This led to Trump's public declaration that Greene was a "traitor" and his support for a primary challenge against her.
As Greene steps down, her legacy remains a subject of debate. While some constituents appreciate her unflinching advocacy, others question the impact of her fame and notoriety on the district.
