President Donald Trump said Friday night that he is withdrawing his support and endorsement of Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, blasting the Georgia Republican in a Truth Social post and accusing her of constant complaining instead of praising what he called his administration’s “record achievements.”
In the lengthy message, Trump claimed Greene had grown upset because he no longer returns her calls and said he would give “Complete and Unyielding Support” to any conservative primary challenger who runs against her ahead of the 2026 midterm elections.
Trump alleged that Greene has “gone Far Left,” pointing to her recent appearance on The View, and gave her a new nickname, “Wacky Marjorie.” He also called her a “ranting lunatic” and suggested she has focused on grievances rather than celebrating his agenda.
Greene has been one of Trump’s most vocal allies since she entered Congress in 2021. She supported him through multiple impeachment fights and frequently campaigned with him across Republican strongholds.
Trump said the relationship began to sour after he privately shared polling showing Greene trailing badly for higher office. He wrote that he told her not to run for Senate or governor because she was polling at 12% and had little chance without his endorsement.
He went on to say that Greene has complained to others about him ignoring her calls, and argued that with hundreds of lawmakers, senators, Cabinet officials, and foreign leaders to deal with, he could not be expected to speak with her regularly.
Greene responded quickly on X, saying Trump had “attacked me and lied about me.” She denied calling him and instead said she had only texted him earlier in the day, sharing screenshots of those messages.
According to Greene, the dispute centers on the release of the Epstein files. She claimed Trump’s attack was meant to pressure Republicans ahead of a vote next week on making the files public. She described his reaction as an effort to intimidate other GOP lawmakers into falling in line.
In her post, Greene suggested the fallout may be beyond repair, writing that she had devoted significant time, money, and political energy to supporting Trump, even when many other Republicans distanced themselves.
She added that her loyalty has limits, saying she does not “worship or serve Donald Trump,” and reaffirmed that her primary commitments are to her faith, her district in Georgia, and the American people.
Trump, meanwhile, doubled down on his criticism, declaring that after what he described as a dramatic turnaround of the country under his second term, Greene has done little but “COMPLAIN, COMPLAIN, COMPLAIN!”
The break could reshape politics in Greene’s heavily Republican district, potentially encouraging challengers to enter the race next year with Trump’s backing.
