Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD) triggered Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) simply by trying to ask a question.
As Representative Greene spoke, Representative Raskin asked, “Will the gentlewoman yield to a question?”
Greene replied: “No, I will not give in to one of your stupid questions that always attack me and attack President Trump.
Raskin then began to have fun: “How about a mediocre question?”
Greene replied, “No, I don’t want your question. NO.”
Raskin continued: “An intelligent question? No. An intelligent question?”
Greene said, “You don’t have intelligent or intelligent questions.”
