MTG took to X on Saturday to defend Trump's comments and clarify that his words aren't nearly as threatening as he made them out to be.

"President Trump said the AUTO INDUSTRY faces a bloodbath if [President Joe Biden] wins, and he's right!" she wrote.

"Democrat mandated switch to [electric vehicles] and all the regulatory changes that come with the Green New Deal climate agenda is already hurting car dealerships and auto manufacturers," she added.

Greene's comments came after Trump made a handful of foreboding statements during a rally in Ohio on Saturday, which has been met with heavy scrutiny.

Most notably, the Republican presidential candidate criticized what he said were Chinese plans to build cars in Mexico and sell them to Americans, warning that horrible things would happen if he didn't step in to stop it.

Marjorie Taylor Greene says Trump's comments have been "twisted"

"If I don't get elected, it's going to be a bloodbath... for the country," Trump declared. "That'll be the least of it. But they're not going to sell those cars."

On her personal X page, Greene took her claim even further, arguing that "Democrats and the media lie constantly" about the things Trump says.

"They twist his phrases and sarcasm and tell the public he said something he did not," she added.
