  1. As per [original article](https://www.thedailybeast.com/maga-rep-mark-greens-daughter-blasts-his-alleged-affair-with-32-year-old) 📰:

    – Tennessee MAGA Rep. Mark Green’s daughter says her family is suffering through “the loss of the person that we thought was our father” after he was accused of having an affair with a mistress 27 years his junior.

    “My dad sells himself in politics as being a Christian, conservative family man,” Catherine Green told the [Nashville Banner](https://nashvillebanner.com/2024/09/16/green-scandal-affair-politics/). “His actions in the last, whatever, year have not been that.”

    Earlier this week, it was revealed that Green’s wife of 30 years, Camilla Green, accused the 57-year-old of carrying out an affair with a 32-year-old woman in a text message and email to his GOP colleagues. He filed for divorce last month.

    “As this is a deeply private matter, I ask for privacy,” he said in a statement after the affair allegations became public. “I will continue to serve this district with all I’ve got, as I have the last five and a half years.”

    In her text, Green’s wife warned of “readily available ‘predators’” that would tempt men like her husband and accused D.C. politicians who espouse family values as “having affairs and getting divorces, drinking, parties.”

    Green’s daughter told the Banner she also believes “toxic” D.C. culture led to her dad’s affair, divorce, and a change in his behavior. “Over the last year and a half, two years, we’ve really noticed a difference in him,” she said. “So who knows if that’s just the toxic environment that is D.C., but something has changed. We’ve all had to basically grieve the loss of the person that we thought was our father.”

    Catherine said the family became aware of Green’s affair, which began in fall 2023, in January after her brother found a letter from his alleged mistress. He denied the affair, but the family later found “additional evidence,” she told the Banner.

    When the news site asked Catherine if she thought former president Donald Trump, who is alleged to have had several extramarital affairs and been accused of sexual assault or harassment by over a dozen women, was part of the negative influence on her MAGA father, she said: “Yes and no.”

    “Trump doesn’t lie about who he is, you know, he’s upfront with you,” she added, contrasting the former president’s style with her father’s family values-based public profile. “You know [Trump’s] an ass, but he’s just good at what he does.”

    Green announced he would not seek reelection in February, before changing his mind a month later. His daughter said his reservation was related to the family’s financially struggling equestrian farm. He is, nevertheless, likely to win in his heavily Republican district.

  2. If he will cheat on his wife, I don’t trust him with voting for where our money goes. I feel the same about Trump.

  3. “As this is a deeply private matter, I ask for privacy.”

    Wonder why republicans don’t tout themselves as the party of “family values” any more? It’s because they never were, and they couldn’t keep up the charade any longer

  6. Too bad Republicans don’t actually care about morality. If they did, their party would look a hell of a lot different.

  7. I wish I could say with any amount of honesty that i feel sorry for them but i don’t. They should feel the same level of pains that other feel because of his actions!

    Amazing, the most deplorable, disgusting, and outright trashy people seem to be Christian Republicans.

    His family should sue the other woman (and all of his philandering friends) for alien of affection.

    Conservatives line the wall at adult theatres. Looking for reasons to get an erection their wives cannot give.

    Conservatives fill the parking lots at truck stops. Looking for willing men to fulfill their lusts and secret desires.

  12. The main hallmark of “Christian Conservatives” has always been to demand that others live up to a standard that you have no intention of living up to yourself.

    Tpos Green. Any relation to MTG?

    I was raised in TN. Love the state just hate the Republican scum like this self-styled family values Christian loser. But the Republican contingent in Washington from Tenn? Andy Ogles, Marsha Blackburn? These are among the sleaziest Republicans out there.

  14. I was with his daughter up to the point where she sets Trump apart from guys like her dad, because at least Trump’s honest about who he is (ha).

    No, honey. He has never been honest about who he is, any of his affairs, or the distances he’s gone to cover them up. You just don’t care because his affairs didn’t affect your family.

  15. So f’n sick of republican’s rank hypocrisy. I had a Sunday school nun give me a deskside pop quiz out of the blue when I was 11 ‘Do you know who the worst person in the world is?’ (pre-Trump). I reflexively answered ‘A muderer’. She leaned in and bellowed ‘Nooo a hypocrite!’ I don’t think I even knew what a hypocrite was then.

    Everybody is a hypocrite to some degree, but most don’t have the power these shitbags have over policy and other’s lives. I also think Christianity in particular fuels it.

  16. I love this for him, and all the other republicans whose own kids are outing them for the very terrible people that they are. Eat the rich includes parents as well.
