MAGA ally Marjorie Taylor Greene is unabashedly making a bid to be in President-elect Donald Trump’s future Cabinet as he begins to build up his team.
It’s been less than 48 hours since Trump’s landslide victory over Kamala Harris, but his top supporters are already lining up to help him shape his vision over the next four years.
Greene, R-Ga., who has been one of Trump’s most ardent supporters in Congress over the years and was floated to be one of his VP picks, celebrated his victory at Mar-a-Lago on Tuesday.
Days later, she made it crystal clear that she’d like an administration position while speaking on a panel on Real America’s Voice.
‘It’s important to realize who stood with President Trump from the beginning, never backed down, never stabbed him in the back, never tried to beat him.’
‘And there’s those of us that have been very loyal. We understand his policies, we support them through and through.’

‘And I’d like to see people like us that have done that very much involved.’

Greene was also asked by former Trump aide Steve Bannon on his show War Room on Wednesday if she would take over Trump’s Department of Homeland Security.
‘I don’t know what’s going to happen Steve,’ she replied.
‘We’re just thrilled to have President Trump back in the White House because everyone knows what that means.’

Trump is already getting to work building his White House to carry out what could be a huge mandate.
The 78-year-old president elect has been making calls from Mar-a-Lago – where he has been celebrating his dominant win – and making key decisions that will set up the framework for his second administration.
The Republican has been on the phone with more than 70 world leaders since the race was called for him.
He has also already hinted that he would let Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell keep his job.
