Trump is said to be considering Marjorie Taylor Greene for a top cabinet position.

Question

Donald Trump is said to be considering Marjorie Taylor Greene for a top cabinet position in the Trump administration.

Answer 1

This is false. Trump has made no comments on whether or not he is considering Marjorie Taylor Greene for a top cabinet position. The video within the post even ends with the stipulation that a job might tempt her "if it is offered". For additional proof, another article by Newsweek states that "The former president has not openly discussed potential roles for Greene."

I think this is a good answer because it doesn't reflect any bias towards or against President Trump. Additionally, you provided a source for your answer, which allows us to check where your citing from. However, the claim made isn't proven but it is possible, so maybe you could mention the possibility of Marjorie Taylor Green being elected for a cabinet position, even though it isn't proven yet. For ex: "While Trump hasn't made comments on whether or not he is considering Marjorie Taylor Green, the possibility of her eventual election is still on the table."

Answer 2

The statement that Trump is considering Marjorie Taylor Greene for a top cabinet position is false. This statement made by @calltoactivism, who claims to provide legal analysis and news the media is missing, does not provide a source for this statement, but does provide a clip from the news claiming Greene to be a potential pick. Trump, himself has made no comments or statements on giving Greene a cabinet position. Greene has been supportive of Trump, and she made a statement which led people to speculate she would receive a cabinet position. Greene said, “And there’s those of us that have been very loyal. We understand his polices, we support them through and through. And I’d like to see people like us that have done that very much involved.” As Ewan palmer put is in his Newsweek article, “Georgia Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene says she and others who have been loyal to President-elect Donald Trump for years are more deserving of being in the Republican’s next Cabinet than some of those being suggested.” Trump has since stated that Greene will chair a House subcommittee (DOGE, Department of Government Efficiency) that will work with his administration, which is not a cabinet position(spectrumnews1).

Comments

this claim is very well thought out and does a great job of explaining why the statement is false, but also what could have led people to believe this.

Answer 3

This claim is false. The claim comes from the social media app Bluesky (or bsky) The account, @calltoactivism is a left-wing profile. The tweet features a short video clip that states only that a desk job “may or may not tempt her if it's offered”, The video is 15 seconds long and features no sources or strict claims. According to Newsweek, “The former president has not openly discussed potential roles for Greene” (Newsweek, 2024). Other publishers, such as Vanity Fair have only claimed that Majorie Taylor Green wants a cabinet position, not that she will be given one.
