Trump Withdraws Support for Marjorie Taylor Greene, Signals Openness to 2026 Primary Challenge

Greene links the break to her drive for a House vote to release DOJ records related to Jeffrey Epstein.

Overview

  • Trump attacked Greene on social media, calling her "wacky" and a "lunatic," and accused her of drifting left and doing little but complain.
  • Greene responded by posting screenshots of texts to Trump and aide Natalie Harp about publishing Epstein files and urging a stronger domestic focus.
  • She reported a surge of threats after the split and alleged that Trump has fueled and incited them.
  • A House vote to force the release of DOJ documents tied to Jeffrey Epstein is expected next week, and reporting suggests more Republicans could support disclosure.
  • The rupture follows months of strain as Greene criticized GOP leaders, emphasized affordability concerns, and sought broader media platforms while Trump defended his foreign outreach as benefiting states like Georgia.
