Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) claims that sexism is rampant within the Republican Party.
In an exclusive phone interview with The Daily Mail, the outspoken Georgia representative opened up about her frustrations with her party while hinting that she is planning an exit over several issues, from policy priority differences to sexist culture among its ranks.
Greene, 51, claims a "good ole boys" club, ranging from donors to politicians, has complete control of the party reins, to the ire of many women in the party who feel overlooked and snubbed, which she believes is doing a disservice to party constituents.
"I think there's other women in our party that are really sick and tired of the way men treat Republican women," she told The Daily Mail.
"I think there's other women, Republican women, and I'm just giving my opinion here, who are really sick and tired of them."
Greene, who has the largest following of any Republican woman in office, pointed to Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-N.Y.) as an example of a woman in the GOP who has been "shafted."
The New York representative had her Trump-endorsed bid for U.S. ambassador to the United Nations rescinded by the White House after receiving a slim majority in the House. However, Greene has a different view on the turn of events.
"I mean, she got screwed by Mike Johnson, and she got screwed by the White House," Greene said, adding earlier that she's "not afraid of Mike Johnson at all."
Meanwhile, she noted, Mike Waltz was "awarded" a promotion to fill the U.N. ambassador position after the national security advisor and former Florida congressman was fired following the massive Signal encrypted app group chat scandal.
However, the Trump loyalist caveated, "I'm not blaming Trump, particularly. I'm blaming the people in the White House."

Yet, even Greene's support for Trump has wavered in light of the latest developments on the Epstein Files, which the U.S. Justice Department effectively dismissed after walking back on claims about obtaining a client list.
She continued to say she feels the party has strayed from its recently emerged anti-establishment values in the wake of Trump and has harkened back to its "neocon" days, leading to a misalignment with the party base.

Greene has been a fierce MAGA supporter since she entered politics in 2021. However, she revealed in the interview that policy differences and cultural issues within the party have made her consider leaving the GOP.
Greene herself has had to face an uphill battle against men in her party.
"I had to beat eight men and had to really whoop one in the primary, and I did, and the primary is everything in my district, and I did that by myself," she told The Daily Mail. "I didn't do that with anybody's help, not President Trump, Mike Johnson."
