Marjorie Taylor Greene’s Friday-night announcement drew criticism from some Dalton residents and praise from local Republican figures, reflecting sharply divided views of her record.
Some Dalton residents criticized Greene’s record and positions. Sarojin Abishaker said she disagreed with Greene’s stance on immigration and described her break with President Trump over the Epstein files as too little, too late. Jennifer Detweiler criticized Greene for listing things she had supported in office and expressing pride in them.
Two people who work in Georgia state politics said they admired Greene’s fight and agreed with her on many issues. Gavin Swafford praised her willingness to stand her ground, including when she disagreed with Trump, and predicted her successor would be unapologetically “America-First.”
