Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) argued Donald Trump was like Jesus because the Christian savior was also a "convicted felon."

Greene made the remarks while speaking at a Trump rally in Las Vegas on Sunday.

"It is bullshit, and you want to know something?" she said. "We aren't going to tolerate it."

"The Democrats and the fake news media want to constantly talk about, oh, President Trump is a convicted felon," she continued. "Well, you want to know something? The man that I worship is also a convicted felon, and he was murdered on a Roman cross."

Greene said Trump's conviction in a New York hush money trial amounted to "political corruption."

"We have seen this throughout history," she opined. "This is nothing new. It's just the first time in American history we have been forced to deal with it."
