What did Marjorie Taylor Greene say about Maxine Waters? U.S. Representative’s “too old” comment sparks backlash online

Marjorie Taylor Greene has once again made her way into the headlines after she called Democratic Rep. Maxine Waters “too old.” The entire fiasco between Marjorie Taylor Greene and Rep. Maxine Waters started after the latter criticized Greene for receiving a $183,504 Paycheck Protection Program loan write-off in April 2020, during the pandemic.

The loan write-off was basically for Taylor Commercia Inc., a company that Marjorie Taylor Greene co-owned with her then-husband. As Democratic Rep. Maxine Waters called out Marjorie Taylor Greene for the same, Greene took to Twitter and posted a lengthy message for Waters, saying:

“Maxine is everything wrong with politicians today. Too old. No real-life experience. Corrupt and tyrannical."

However, the “too old” line did not seem to sit well with the masses, who then attacked her in the comment section for her loan forgiveness incident, and the fact that she talked ill about Waters in the tweet.

The PPP, also known as the Paycheck Protection Program was introduced by the former President of the US, Donald Trump, during the pandemic to help small businesses. The scheme was a part of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act, also known as the CARES Act.
