President Donald Trump has withdrawn all support for Republican Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene, a firebrand conservative who long supported Trump's agenda but recently criticized several of his policies. Trump said in a nearly 300-word social media post that the Georgia lawmaker had gone 'far left', and called for her to be unseated in next year's midterm election by a Republican challenger.
The falling out comes after Greene questioned whether Trump was still putting 'America First' on his agenda. She criticized his focus on foreign policy and handling of Jeffrey Epstein files.
Greene said Trump was lashing out to try and deter other Republicans from voting to release the files. 'All I see "Wacky" Marjorie do is COMPLAIN, COMPLAIN, COMPLAIN!' Trump posted, while en route to his home in Florida on Friday night.
He claimed that she turned on him after he suggested that she shouldn't run for governor or senator. 'She has told many people that she is upset that I don't return her phone calls anymore,' Trump said, adding, 'I can't take a ranting Lunatic's call every day.'
Trump also said that voters in her district 'are fed up with her and her antics and, if the right person runs, they will have my Complete and Unyielding Support'.
Trump has faced criticized from both parties over his handling of the US Department of Justice's files related to Epstein. He was a friend of Epstein's for years but has consistently denied any wrongdoing.
Greene, along with other Republicans, has criticized Trump for not doing enough to support voters against rising costs and foreign conflicts, while also challenging his approach regarding the Epstein files. 'I truly just stand with the women, and I think they deserve to be the ones that we're fighting for,' she stated recently.
This unexpected fallout highlights a significant fracture in the MAGA movement as both Trump and Greene clash on crucial issues as election season approaches.
