This is because she also made controversial statements at Rally for Trump, organized on Tuesday morning, just before his arrest and arraignment. During the rally, she took a dig at the Biden administration and said:"President Trump will be found innocent. This witch hunt will end. We will not tolerate it. We will not tolerate the hate of the left.

Greene responded to Adams' warning and said:"As you can see, I’m standing here peacefully protesting, but you called me out by name while you allow crime in your streets.”Furthermore, Greene has not yet responded to the backlash that she has been receiving after she made the comment. However, she has time and again made clear that she will always be in support of the former president, as she strongly believes that he is innocent and has not done anything wrong.
