In a bold statement at the Republican National Convention, Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) addressed her fellow party members and delegates, hailing former President Donald Trump as the “Founding Father of the America First Movement.”

Greene’s remarks were met with thunderous applause and cheers from the packed crowd, as she sought to solidify Trump’s leadership as the driving force behind the party’s conservative agenda. The “America First” movement, which Trump championed during his presidency, rallied behind his administration’s policies, including trade tariffs, border security, and foreign policy.

In her speech, Greene praised Trump’s unwavering commitment to American sovereignty and his dedication to putting American workers first. “We will never forget the legacy of the 45th President of the United States, Donald J. Trump, who is the founding father of the America First Movement,” she exclaimed. “He was a beacon of hope for a nation that said, ‘Enough is enough’ to the globalists, the elites, and the swamp dwellers in Washington, D.C.”

Greene’s remarks were a direct challenge to the Biden-Harris administration, which has been criticized for its handling of international trade and national security issues. The “America First” movement, she said, is a testament to the power of grassroots conservative activism and the unwavering support of American citizens who believe in the country’s unique values and heritage.

The freshman representative from Georgia emphasized that the movement is not just about nostalgia for Trump’s presidency, but a continued commitment to the principles that he embodied during his time in office. “We will not let the swamp in Washington, D.C. hijack our message, manipulate our values, or steal our future,” she declared. “We will continue to stand strong, proud, and united, as Americans, with our eyes fixed on the future, and our hearts fixed on the future of America.”

Greene’s remarks came as part of a larger effort to revitalize the Republican Party’s brand and re-elect Trump as the party’s leader. Despite the challenges posed by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, economic uncertainty, and social unrest, the convention aimed to galvanize the party’s base and energize its supporters for the upcoming midterm elections.

The speech served as a clarion call for the “America First” movement, which has been reinvigorated by the growing backlash against globalism and the return to traditional values and conservatism. As Greene’s comments echoed through the convention hall, they were met with loud applause and a chorus of chants of “USA! USA!” from the audience, underscoring the enduring appeal of Trump’s legacy and the enduring power of the America First movement.
