"Ok guys, check this out: first we have Joe Biden calling all of us 'garbage.' Now Mark Cuban has come out and said there's no strong, intelligent women supporting Trump," she said before executing five pull-ups.

The Georgia Representative also criticized Cuban, questioning his masculinity and defending her own credentials.

"I graduated from UGA with a business degree, I run a very successful construction company in Georgia, and now I'm going on my third term in Congress," Greene stated, adding, "I love guns, especially AR15s, and I support president Trump."

This isn't Greene's first fitness-related political statement.
In May, she responded to Democrat Jasmine Crockett's criticism of her appearance with a video of clean-and-jerk exercises.
